Antimicrobial Polyester-Cotton Yarn from Germany
Polyester-cotton yarn consisting of 25% polyester staple fibres treated with silver-ion antimicrobial and 75% cotton, used for medical uniforms. The antimicrobial treatment does not alter the fibre classification, and the yarn remains a synthetic staple fibre yarn mixed mainly with cotton. It is supplied in industrial quantities, not for retail sale.

Import Tips
• Document the antimicrobial treatment and confirm it does not change the essential character of the yarn as a textile product
• Provide fibre composition certificates to CBSA to support classification under this tariff item
• Ensure the yarn is not classified as a product of Chapter 38 or 30 due to the silver-ion treatment
