Bleached Acrylic Staple Fiber Utility Fabric from United States
This is a bleached plain weave fabric made from 90% acrylic staple fibres, an artificial textile material. It is classified under this tariff item because it contains 85% or more by weight of artificial staple fibres and is bleached. The fabric does not meet the specific definitions of poplin, sheeting, printcloth, or cheesecloth, so it is classified as 'other' within this subheading, making it versatile for industrial wipes and linings.

Import Tips
• Verify that the acrylic staple fibre content is at least 85% by weight and that the fabric is bleached
• Maintain documentation showing the fabric does not meet the definitions of other specific woven fabric types (e.g
• poplin, sheeting) to support classification as 'other'
• If the fabric is coated or impregnated with plastics or rubber, it may be classified in Chapter 39 or 40 instead
