U.S. imports of textile fabrics impregnated, coated, or laminated with pvc (HS 590310) totaled $17.7M in April 2026, traded with 41 countries.
Importers of Textile Fabrics Impregnated, Coated, or Laminated with PVC paid $1.5M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 16% on $9.0M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataPVC-coated and laminated textile fabrics serve a broad range of industrial and commercial end uses — from truck tarpaulins and awnings to upholstery, protective clothing, and conveyor belting — making this one of the more commercially significant coated-fabric headings. The US tariff schedule is unusually granular here, with eight 10-digit lines under heading 5903.10 that distinguish by base fiber (cotton, man-made fibers, other), plastic content percentage, and whether the fabric is bonded or sheeted, each potentially carrying a different duty rate. Canada and Italy are the leading suppliers, with China, Taiwan, and South Korea also among the top sources. Importers should note that goods subject to Section 301 tariffs from China may face additional duties depending on the specific 10-digit classification.

Several lines under 5903.10 distinguish between fabrics where the plastic content exceeds 60% or 70% by weight versus those below those thresholds. The plastic-to-textile weight ratio, determined by laboratory analysis or manufacturer's specification, drives the correct line selection. Importers should obtain weight-composition data from their supplier before entry to avoid misclassification between lines with different duty rates.
Yes, this is a recurring classification dispute. When the plastic coating is so heavy that the textile substrate serves merely as reinforcement and the product's essential character is that of a plastic sheet, CBP may classify it in Chapter 39 (plastics) rather than Chapter 59. The key factors are whether the textile is visible to the naked eye on both surfaces and whether the plastic or the textile component predominates by weight and function.
