Products classified under HTS 5505.20.00.00
Viscose Yarn Waste
Waste generated from the spinning and processing of viscose rayon yarn, consisting of short fibers, noils, and broken filaments. Classified under HTS 5505.20.00.00 as waste of artificial fibers, specifically from viscose production which is regenerated cellulose.
Acetate Garnetted Stock
Garnetted stock from cellulose acetate fibers, recovered by garnetting machines from manufacturing scraps. Falls under HTS 5505.20.00.00 as artificial fiber waste, distinct from synthetic due to chemical regeneration process.
Rayon Noils
Short fiber noils produced during rayon combing and carding, unsuitable for direct spinning. HTS 5505.20.00.00 covers this artificial fiber waste from regenerated cellulose production.
Viscose Spinning Waste
Fibrous waste from high-speed viscose spinning operations, including floor sweepings and machine lint. Properly classified in 5505.20.00.00 for artificial man-made fiber waste.
Lyocell Processing Noils
Noils from lyocell (Tencel) fiber production, a solvent-spun artificial fiber. HTS 5505.20.00.00 applies to this regenerated cellulose waste material.
Acetate Tow Waste
Waste clippings and ends from acetate tow production used in cigarette filter manufacturing. Classified under 5505.20.00.00 as artificial fiber waste.
Modal Fiber Garnetted Waste
Garnetted stock recovered from modal fabric trimmings, a beech tree-derived artificial fiber. HTS 5505.20.00.00 for this specific man-made fiber waste.
Viscose Carding Waste
Dust and short fibers removed during viscose staple fiber carding machines. Falls squarely under HTS 5505.20.00.00 as artificial fiber processing waste.
Cellulose Acetate Noils
Short noils from combing cellulose diacetate fibers for apparel yarns. HTS 5505.20.00.00 designates this artificial fiber waste category.
