Unbleached or Bleached Woven Fabrics of Artificial Filaments NESOI (Mixed Fabrics Included) imports of $58K in June 2026 ran 33% above the year-to-date monthly average of $44K.
Last updated: June 2026 dataMixed and blended artificial filament woven fabrics in unbleached or bleached form—not classifiable under the 85%-or-more artificial filament headings—are captured here, covering constructions that combine artificial filaments with wool or fine animal hair (W/FAH), synthetic filaments, or other fibers. The US schedule applies a 36% W/FAH content threshold to split the W/FAH-containing fabrics (5408310520 for combed) from lower-content blends (5408311000), and further distinguishes sheeting (5408312030) and other fabric types (5408312090). The United Kingdom and China are the primary suppliers, with Italy and Turkey also contributing. The 'NESOI' (not elsewhere specified or included) designation means importers must first confirm the fabric does not qualify under a more specific artificial filament heading before using these lines.

The 5408.2x headings apply to fabrics with 85% or more artificial filament content by weight (excluding high-tenacity viscose rayon). If the fabric's artificial filament content falls below 85%—or if it contains a significant proportion of wool, synthetic filaments, or other fibers—it will typically fall under the 5408.3x NESOI headings. Importers should obtain a certified fiber-content analysis and work through the HTS chapter notes sequentially to confirm the correct heading before filing entry.
For fabrics containing 36% or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair, the US schedule at the 10-digit level distinguishes combed fiber (5408310520) from non-combed fiber. Combed W/FAH yarns are finer and smoother, typically used in worsted-style blends, while non-combed (carded) yarns produce a bulkier texture. Mill spinning records or yarn specification sheets are the standard documentation to support this distinction at entry.
