HS code 5514.19 is the 6-digit subheading for fabrics, woven, unbleached or bleached, containing less than 85% by weight of synthetic staple fibres n.e.c. in item no. 55.14.1, mixed mainly or solely with cotton, exceeding 170g/m2. It is used for heavyweight rayon-cotton blend fabric, bleached modal-cotton canvas, unfinished lyocell-cotton drill, heavy blended sateen (unbleached) and viscose-cotton upholstery base.
What HS 5514.19 covers
This category encompasses heavier woven fabrics, exceeding 170g/m2, that are unbleached or bleached, and contain less than 85% by weight of synthetic staple fibers (other than polyester, and not specifically plain weave or twill as covered in 551411/551412), mixed mainly or solely with cotton. This 'not elsewhere specified' clause allows for a broader range of weaves and synthetic blends, such as rayon, modal, or lyocell, providing alternatives for specific performance or aesthetic requirements in heavier applications. These fabrics are used as base materials for durable apparel, specialized home textiles, or industrial applications where unique properties are desired. Importers include specialized garment manufacturers and textile converters seeking distinct base materials. Exporters are textile mills with capabilities in handling various synthetic blends and weaving complex structures. Trade considerations include the specific synthetic fiber's properties, weave complexity, and suitability for further processing.

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).
