About HS Code 540782
This category includes woven fabrics made from synthetic filament yarn, containing less than 85% by weight of synthetic filaments, mixed mainly or solely with cotton, and dyed. These blended fabrics are highly sought after in international trade due to their balanced properties, combining the comfort and breathability of cotton with the durability, wrinkle resistance, and colorfastness of synthetic filaments. They are extensively used in apparel (e.g., shirts, trousers, workwear), home furnishings (e.g., curtains, upholstery), and some specialized industrial applications. Importers are typically garment factories, textile converters, and retailers looking for versatile and cost-effective fabric solutions. Exporters are large-scale textile mills with integrated weaving and dyeing capabilities. The 'dyed' aspect signifies a finished or semi-finished product ready for cutting and sewing.
