Last updated: August 2026 dataWoven wool and fine animal hair carpets and rugs — produced on power looms or traditional hand looms using interlaced warp and weft construction — represent a heritage segment of the floor covering trade, valued for longevity, natural insulation, and design versatility. This heading captures woven wool floor coverings not classified as knotted or handwoven flatweaves, including Wilton and Axminster-style broadloom carpets. Fiber purity and the distinction between wool and fine animal hair blends are classification-sensitive, as the predominant fiber by weight determines heading assignment. Importers should note that wool textile products are subject to country-of-origin marking requirements and may require fiber content labeling under the Wool Products Labeling Act.

Yes, Wilton and Axminster carpets woven of wool or fine animal hair that are not knotted or handwoven flatweaves generally fall under this heading for woven wool floor coverings NES. The specific HTS classification at the 10-digit level may further distinguish by pile construction or width, so importers should review the applicable tariff schedule with a customs broker to confirm the precise subheading.
The Wool Products Labeling Act requires that imported wool floor coverings bear labels disclosing the percentage of each fiber type by weight (wool, recycled wool, and other fibers), the country of origin, and the manufacturer or importer name. The FTC enforces labeling requirements, and CBP may detain shipments that arrive without compliant labels. Importers should coordinate with suppliers to ensure labels are affixed before or at the time of importation.
