Polyurethane Coated Cotton Tarp Material from China
Heavy-duty woven cotton fabric coated with polyurethane on one side for tarpaulins and truck covers, visible coating for weatherproofing. It qualifies for HTS 5903.20.10.00 under heading 5903 as a cotton textile with PU coating not excluded by chapter notes (e.g., visible, flexible). Weight exceeds typical but remains textile-dominant.

Import Tips
• Measure and certify grammage under 1500 g/m² if borderline, though 5903 applies regardless per notes unless rubberized
• Avoid bulk packaging mislabeled as plastic sheets; specify 'textile fabric coated with PU' on docs
• Test for naked-eye visibility of coating; invisible treatments stay in chapter 52
