Last updated: April 2026 dataCarded-wool blends where the wool or fine animal hair content falls below 85% by weight and the predominant blending component is manmade textile materials — filament or staple — serve the mid-market apparel and coating sectors where cost and performance are balanced. The carding process, which leaves fibers in a more random alignment than combing, produces a softer, bulkier hand suited to outerwear and blanket-weight fabrics. Correct classification hinges on two sequential tests: confirming the fiber is carded rather than combed, and then verifying that manmade materials outweigh any other blending fiber.

Customs brokers typically rely on a mill certificate or fiber analysis report specifying the spinning system used. Carded (woolen-spun) yarns have a characteristic fiber length distribution and surface texture distinct from worsted (combed) yarns; a laboratory fiber analysis can confirm this if the mill certificate is unavailable.
Classification requires that the non-wool component be 'mixed mainly' with manmade materials. If manmade and cotton fibers are present in roughly equal proportions, neither clearly predominates, and the importer should seek a binding ruling from CBP to determine the correct heading — either this one or the 'other fibers' counterpart.
