Industrial Filter Net Fabric from China
Industrial Filter Net Fabric is a polyester net with a textile base, used for non-apparel filtration applications. It is classified under tariff item 5804.10.00 as a tulle or other net fabric because it is a machine-made net, not woven or knitted. Despite its industrial use, the fabric's construction as a net keeps it within this heading, provided it is not made up into filter elements.

Import Tips
• Verify that the net fabric is not impregnated, coated, or laminated with plastics or rubber, as such goods are classified in Chapter 59
• If the fabric is cut to shape and finished as a filter element, it may be classified as a machinery part under Chapter 84
• Provide technical specifications to the CBSA to demonstrate the net construction and fibre content
