About HS Code 570299

This 'catch-all' HS code encompasses woven carpets and other textile floor coverings made from various textile materials, specifically excluding man-made fibers, wool, fine animal hair, and coir. These products are also not of pile construction and are 'made up,' meaning they are finished and ready for installation or use. This category typically includes natural fiber flat-weave rugs crafted from materials like jute, sisal, seagrass, or cotton. These carpets are highly sought after for their natural textures, eco-friendly appeal, and durability, often used to create rustic or contemporary interior designs. Exporters are frequently countries with abundant access to these natural fibers and traditional weaving expertise, such as India, Bangladesh, and China. They supply retailers, interior designers, and consumers globally who value sustainable and aesthetically unique flooring options.
