HS HEADING 5111

Woven fabrics of carded wool or of carded fine animal hair

In plain English

This category covers woven fabrics made from carded wool or fine animal hair. The items are separated based on the amount of wool or hair they contain and what other materials are mixed in. Fabrics with 85% or more wool or hair are divided by their weight, while those with less are grouped by whether they are mixed with man-made filaments, staple fibers, or other unspecified fibers.
