Bamboo Fiber Disposable Diapers
These disposable diapers are made primarily from bamboo-derived textile fibers, offering high absorbency and softness for infants. They fall under HTS 9619.00.48.00 as diapers of other textile fibers (not cotton, wool, or man-made), designed for sanitary use in absorbing bodily waste. The 'other' subheading applies since they are neither knitted nor primarily of man-made fibers.
