Last updated: April 2026 dataHeavier bleached cotton woven fabrics — those with a cotton content of at least 85% by weight and exceeding 200 g/m² — fall under SITC 65241, occupying the heavier-weight tier of the bleached cotton fabric classification. The 200 g/m² breakpoint is a hard threshold that separates these fabrics from their lighter counterparts, and the weight difference reflects meaningfully different end uses: canvas, workwear base cloth, upholstery backing, and industrial textile applications where structural weight and durability are required. Accurate weight measurement per square meter is essential at entry, as a fabric straddling the threshold will be classified differently depending on which side it falls.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Heavier bleached cotton woven fabrics are commonly used in workwear and uniform manufacturing, canvas goods, upholstery and furniture backing, and industrial filtration or protective textile applications. The added weight provides structural integrity that lighter shirting-weight fabrics cannot offer.
Mill test certificates specifying grams per square meter, tested according to a recognized standard such as ISO 3801, are the standard supporting documents. Customs may conduct independent laboratory testing if the declared weight is close to the 200 g/m² boundary, so importers should retain test records and ensure consistency between the commercial invoice, packing list, and mill documentation.
