What HS 5407.82 covers
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.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
