Uncolored E-Glass Nonwoven Fabric from China

This is a mechanically bonded nonwoven fabric made from E-glass fibers, weighing 120 grams per square meter, used in industrial filtration and reinforcement applications. It falls under HTS 7019.69.40.10 as it is an uncolored glass fiber fabric not exceeding 185 g/m², distinct from woven fabrics or colored variants. The mechanical bonding process binds the fibers without heat or chemicals, preserving the classification in heading 7019.

Import Tips

• Verify weight per square meter via certified lab testing to confirm ≤185 g/m² for this subheading; exceeding it shifts to other 7019 categories

• Provide mill certificates detailing fiber type (e.g

• E-glass), bonding method, and lack of coloring to avoid misclassification as colored or woven

• Ensure documentation specifies nonwoven mechanical bonding to distinguish from chemically bonded fabrics potentially falling under 7019.40
