What HS 5801.32 covers
This category specifically covers cut corduroy fabrics made from man-made fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or blends. These synthetic corduroys offer advantages like wrinkle resistance, colorfastness, and often a more accessible price point than their cotton counterparts. They are widely traded for use in casual wear, children's clothing, and some home furnishings, appealing to markets that prioritize practicality and affordability. Importers are primarily garment manufacturers, fast-fashion brands, and textile distributors. Exporters are textile mills, particularly in Asia, specializing in synthetic weaving and finishing. Key trade factors include the 'wale' count, fiber composition, stretch properties, and compliance with textile performance standards.

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).
