What HS 5801.10 covers

This HS code covers woven pile fabrics made from luxurious materials like wool or fine animal hair, excluding specific types of terry toweling or chenille fabrics. These textiles are characterized by their raised surface, which can be cut (velvet, velveteen) or uncut (terry), providing a soft, rich texture. They are highly sought after in the upholstery, apparel, and decorative textile industries for their warmth, durability, and elegant appearance. Major importers include fashion houses, high-end furniture manufacturers, and interior design firms in countries like Italy, France, the United States, and Japan. Exporters often come from regions with strong textile manufacturing capabilities and access to quality wool or specialty animal fibers, such as the UK, Italy, and China. Key aspects of trade involve fiber quality, pile height and density, and the specific weaving technique that creates the pile structure.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. 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).
