This heavy woven fabric, weighing over 300 g/m², is made from carded wool mixed mainly with man-made staple fibers, designed specifically for upholstery on sofas and armchairs. It falls under HTS 5111.30.0500 due to its classification as an upholstery fabric exceeding the weight threshold, with wool as the predominant fiber per chapter definitions. The durable weave and texture make it ideal for high-traffic furniture.
