Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the plastic coating is polyurethane and the fabric is of a kind used for apparel
Heading 59.03 specifically covers textile fabrics coated with plastics, which may be more specific than 5907.
If the fabric is completely embedded in plastic or coated on both sides
Chapter 39 covers plastics; if the textile is merely reinforcing, classification shifts to plastics.
