Napped Cotton-Polyester Bed Sheet Fabric from China

This heavy woven fabric, weighing over 200 g/m², contains 70% cotton mixed with polyester and features a napped surface for softness. It is dyed plain weave sheeting classified under HTS 5211.31.00.50 due to its low cotton content, weight, dyeing, plain weave, sheeting type, and napping. The napping process raises fibers on one side, enhancing insulation and texture.

Import Tips

Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm <85% cotton; discrepancies can lead to reclassification

Provide weave analysis and weight certificates (gsm >200) to avoid disputes on sheeting vs other fabrics

Include dyeing process documentation and napping proof to match subheading 5211.31.00.50 exactly
