Stitch-Bonded Laminated Insulation Fabric from United States
Stitch-bonded laminated insulation fabric is a stitch-bonded fiber fabric made from polyester, laminated with foam for thermal insulation in appliances and HVAC systems. It qualifies under tariff item 5602.10.00 as stitch-bonded fiber fabric, as the stitch-bonding process enhances cohesion using fibers from the web itself, and the foam lamination does not exclude it from this heading.

Import Tips
• Confirm that the foam layer is not cellular rubber or plastic that would classify the product under Chapter 39 or 40
• Provide evidence that the stitch-bonding process uses fibers from the web itself, as required by Chapter Note 2
• Check if the insulation is cut to size, which may affect classification as a 'made up' article
