Last updated: April 2026 dataPrinted woven fabrics exceeding 200 g/m² with a sub-85% cotton content and manmade fibers as the dominant secondary component serve end-uses where heavier fabric weight is paired with decorative surface printing — common in home furnishings, drapery, and heavier-weight apparel such as outerwear linings and casual jackets. The combination of the over-200 g/m² weight threshold and the printed finish places these fabrics in a distinct classification from their lighter-weight counterparts (SITC 65254) and from yarn-colored or dyed alternatives at the same weight. Importers should note that the printed designation applies regardless of printing technology, but the weight must be confirmed on the finished, printed fabric.

When a fabric receives both a base dyeing and an overprinted pattern, it is generally classified as 'printed' for SITC and HTS purposes, because the printed finish is the final and most commercially significant finishing step. Importers should confirm this interpretation with a licensed customs broker if the fabric's processing sequence is complex.
Manmade fibers such as polyester can affect dye uptake and print sharpness — reactive dyes used for cotton may not bond to polyester, potentially causing a 'reserved' or two-tone effect. Importers sourcing printed cotton-blend fabrics for specific end-uses should verify that the printing process (e.g., pigment printing, which adheres to both fiber types) is compatible with the blend ratio to ensure color consistency.
