U.S. imports of textile fabrics impregnated, coated, or laminated with other plastics (not pvc or polyurethane) (HS 590390) totaled $27.7M in April 2026, traded with 52 countries.
Importers of Textile Fabrics Impregnated, Coated, or Laminated with Other Plastics (Not PVC or Polyurethane) paid $3.5M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 16% on $21.6M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataTextile fabrics treated with plastics other than PVC or polyurethane — including polyethylene, polypropylene, PTFE, and silicone coatings — serve specialized industrial, filtration, medical, and outdoor-performance applications where those specific polymer properties are required. India leads US imports under this heading, with Germany and Mexico also among the top suppliers, reflecting both commodity-grade and high-specification production capabilities across those origins. The eight US 10-digit lines under 5903.90 mirror the structure of the PVC and PU headings, splitting by base fiber, plastic content percentage, and bonding method, making fiber and coating identification equally critical here. Importers dealing with PTFE-coated or silicone-coated technical fabrics should be prepared to document both the coating polymer identity and the weight ratio to support correct line selection.

Manufacturer's technical data sheets identifying the coating polymer by chemical name (e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene, PTFE, silicone) are the standard supporting documents. For high-value or high-volume shipments, independent laboratory analysis using FTIR spectroscopy can confirm polymer identity. This documentation is important not only for correct classification within 5903.90 but also to rule out classification under the PVC (5903.10) or polyurethane (5903.20) headings.
PTFE-coated woven or nonwoven fabrics used for industrial filtration are generally classified in Chapter 59 when the textile substrate is the functional base and the PTFE coating is the treating agent. However, if the product is a finished filter element or a fabricated filter bag, it may be classified in Chapter 84 (machinery parts) or Chapter 59 heading 5911 (textile products for technical use), depending on its form and end use. The distinction between fabric in the piece and a finished technical article is the key classification question.
