Bleached Osnaburg Cotton-Polyester Sheeting Fabric
This heavy-duty bleached sheeting fabric is made from a blend of less than 85% cotton mixed with polyester, weighing over 200 g/m², and classified as Osnaburg due to its plain weave, coarse texture, and specific yarn count meeting subheading 5211.20.21.25 criteria. It is commonly used for industrial packaging and backing materials. The bleaching process lightens the fabric while maintaining its durability for rough applications.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If yarns of different colors in 3- or 4-thread twill weave
Denim fabrics with specific colored yarn twill construction fall under 5211.42 per chapter subheading note, shifting from plain weave Osnaburg.
If 85% or more cotton content
Pure or high-cotton plain weave bleached sheeting over 200 g/m² classifies in heading 5208, as Chapter 52 separates by cotton percentage.
If unbleached instead of bleached
Unbleached versions of the same Osnaburg sheeting move to 5210.21, as bleaching status determines the 2-digit subheading in 5211.
