Products classified under HTS 5603.11.00.95
Spunbond Polypropylene Facial Mask Fabric
Ultra-light nonwoven fabric made from polypropylene filaments, weighing 20 g/m², used as the outer layer in disposable face masks. It falls under HTS 5603.11.00.95 as a nonwoven of man-made filaments under 25 g/m², not otherwise specified. This lightweight material provides fluid resistance without additional coatings.
SMS Nonwoven Coverstock for Diapers
Soft SMS (spunmelt spunbond) nonwoven polypropylene fabric at 18 g/m² serving as the topsheet in baby diapers and adult incontinence products. Classified under HTS 5603.11.00.95 for lightweight man-made filament nonwovens. Its breathable, hydrophobic properties suit personal hygiene applications.
Polyester Spunlace Nonwoven Wipe Substrate
Hydroentangled spunlace nonwoven from polyester filaments, 22 g/m², used as base for wet wipes and cleaning cloths. HTS 5603.11.00.95 applies to this lightweight man-made nonwoven without impregnation. The spunlace process bonds fibers mechanically for absorbency.
Breathable Polyethylene Film-Nonwoven Laminate
Microporous PE film laminated to 15 g/m² polypropylene nonwoven for housewrap and medical gowns. While laminated, the thin PE layer may not trigger Chapter 39 exclusion per chapter notes. Falls under HTS 5603.11.00.95 as lightweight man-made nonwoven.
Flashspun Polyethylene Nonwoven (Tyvek-like)
Flashspun high-density polyethylene nonwoven fabric at 24 g/m², similar to Tyvek, used for protective envelopes and apparel. Classified in HTS 5603.11.00.95 for lightweight man-made filament nonwovens. Unique manufacturing creates microfiber structure.
Meltblown Polypropylene Filter Media
Fine-fiber meltblown nonwoven polypropylene at 20 g/m² used as filter layer in respirators and HVAC filters. HTS 5603.11.00.95 covers this lightweight man-made nonwoven filtration media. High filtration efficiency from submicron fibers.
Hydrophilic Spunbond Nonwoven for Sanitary Pads
Chemically treated spunbond polypropylene nonwoven at 16 g/m² with hydrophilic finish for sanitary napkin acquisition layers. The treatment doesn't create visible coating, staying in HTS 5603.11.00.95. Enables rapid fluid wicking in hygiene products.
Airlaid Composite Nonwoven Surfacing
Airlaid nonwoven from polypropylene filaments mixed with pulp, 23 g/m², used as surfacing for absorbent cores. The filament component dominates classification in HTS 5603.11.00.95. Provides smooth surface over fluff pulp.
Nanofiber Nonwoven Separator
Electrospun nanofiber nonwoven from polyamide filaments, 12 g/m², used as battery separators and filtration media. Extreme lightweight qualifies for HTS 5603.11.00.95 as man-made filament nonwoven. Nanoscale fibers provide superior barrier properties.
PP Spunbond Interliner Fabric
16 g/m² polypropylene spunbond nonwoven used as interliner in disposable protective clothing and packaging. HTS 5603.11.00.95 for lightweight man-made nonwovens. Provides breathability and strength in multilayer constructions.
