U.S. imports of printed woven cotton fabrics, under 85% cotton, over 200 g/m² (HS 521225) totaled $353K in April 2026, traded with 20 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataPrinted woven fabrics of cotton—where the cotton fiber share falls below 85% by weight, the fabric exceeds 200 g/m², and the color or pattern is applied by printing after weaving—serve apparel lining, home furnishing, and specialty textile applications. Italy and Pakistan are the leading US suppliers under this heading, with Japan and the United Kingdom also significant, a mix that spans high-end European fashion fabrics and volume-oriented Asian production. Construction subtypes including poplin, sheeting, duck, and twill weave are separately enumerated in the US schedule alongside the FAH content breakpoint, so both weave identification and fiber analysis are required for accurate 10-digit line selection.

A printed fabric has a pattern or design applied to the surface of the woven cloth using inks or dyes in a localized manner (screen printing, digital printing, roller printing), resulting in a multi-color or patterned surface. A dyed fabric is uniformly colored throughout by immersion or padding. If a fabric is both piece-dyed and overprinted, classification generally follows the predominant finishing treatment; a licensed customs broker should be consulted for borderline cases.
The duck construction line within heading 521225 (5212256040) applies specifically to printed, cotton-blend duck fabrics weighing over 200 g/m². Lighter duck fabrics of the same fiber composition and printed finish would fall under the corresponding sub-200 g/m² heading in Chapter 52, making weight documentation essential when classifying duck constructions.
