Last updated: August 2026 dataPolyester and acrylic fleece blankets dominate this category, serving mass-market retail, outdoor recreation, and emergency-supply channels where cost efficiency and moisture resistance outweigh the breathability of natural fibers. Synthetic-fiber blankets from major producing countries may be subject to Section 301 tariffs depending on origin, making supplier diversification a live cost-management issue for importers. Fiber-weight analysis is essential when blended constructions are involved, as chief-weight rules govern whether an article lands here or in the cotton or NES blanket categories.
