Woven Fabrics from High-Tenacity Viscose Rayon Yarn imports of $16K in April 2026 ran 22% below the year-to-date monthly average of $20K.
Last updated: April 2026 dataHigh-tenacity viscose rayon yarn — engineered for superior tensile strength compared to standard viscose — produces woven fabrics used in industrial applications such as tire cord, conveyor belting, and technical reinforcement textiles, distinguishing this heading sharply from conventional apparel-grade rayon wovens. The 'high tenacity' specification is a performance criterion, not merely a marketing term, and importers should be prepared to provide yarn tenacity test data (typically expressed in cN/tex) to support classification. Pile, chenille, narrow, and special-purpose fabrics are explicitly excluded, keeping this heading focused on flat, broad woven constructions for industrial end uses.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
High-tenacity viscose rayon yarn is generally understood to have a tenacity significantly above that of standard textile-grade viscose, typically established by reference to international textile standards. Importers should obtain mill test certificates showing tenacity values in cN/tex to substantiate the classification if questioned by customs.
The primary end uses are technical and industrial: tire cord fabric, transmission belting, hose reinforcement, and similar applications where tensile strength and dimensional stability under load are critical. These fabrics are rarely used in apparel or home textiles, which helps distinguish them from standard rayon wovens at the border.
