U.S. imports of Bleached Cotton-Blend Woven Fabric (Under 85% Cotton, Mixed with Manmade Fibers, Over 200 g/m²) (SITC 65261) totaled $142K in August 2026, imported from 19 countries.
Importers of Bleached Cotton-Blend Woven Fabric (Under 85% Cotton, Mixed with Manmade Fibers, Over 200 g/m²) paid $30K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 21.34% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule. Bleached Cotton-Blend Woven Fabric (Under 85% Cotton, Mixed with Manmade Fibers, Over 200 g/m²) imports of $142K in August 2026 ran 22% below the year-to-date monthly average of $181K.
Last updated: August 2026 dataBleached woven fabrics in this heading are heavier-weight constructions — exceeding 200 g/m² — with cotton as a minority component below 85% and manmade fibers as the primary blend partner, finished to a white or near-white state through chemical bleaching. The heavier weight profile makes these fabrics relevant for workwear, upholstery base cloths, and industrial textile applications where durability matters alongside the brightness achieved by bleaching. Classification hinges on confirming both the fiber-ratio and the over-200 g/m² weight, as the same bleached finish in a lighter fabric falls under a different SITC heading.

A bleached fabric has undergone a chemical process (typically chlorine or peroxide bleaching) to remove natural color and achieve whiteness. Fabrics treated only with optical brightening agents (OBAs) without prior chemical bleaching may still be classified as unbleached depending on the degree of whiteness achieved; importers should obtain mill process documentation to support the declared finish.
The weight break at 200 g/m² is a hard classification boundary in both SITC and the corresponding HTS chapters. Heavier fabrics often carry different duty rates and may fall under different quota or trade-remedy provisions than their sub-200 g/m² counterparts, so accurate weight certification is commercially significant, not merely a technical formality.
