Napped Polyester-Cotton Sheeting Fabric from Canada
This printed, plain weave fabric weighs over 170 g/m², containing less than 85% polyester staple fibers mixed mainly with cotton, and features a napped finish on one side. It qualifies as 'sheeting' per statistical note (b)(ii) due to its weight, plain weave, and square construction with fine yarn counts. The napping provides a soft, brushed texture ideal for apparel linings.

Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight exceeds 170 g/m² and napped finish via lab testing to confirm HTS 5514.41.00.50 classification
• Provide mill test certificates showing <85% polyester staple fibers mixed mainly with cotton, plus print and weave details
• Avoid misclassification as non-napped sheeting (5514.41.00.40) by documenting the brushing process
