Hessian Jute Tow from United States
Hessian jute tow comprises short fiber remnants and waste generated during the processing of jute for hessian (burlap) fabric. These fibers are cleaned but remain unspun, making them suitable for stuffing or low-grade yarn production. This product is explicitly covered by the tariff item's inclusion of tow and waste of jute bast fibers.
