About HS Code 591110
This highly specialized HS code covers textile fabrics, felts, and felt-lined woven fabrics that are coated, covered, or laminated with rubber, leather, or other materials, specifically for technical purposes such as card clothing in textile machinery. It also includes similar fabrics used for other technical applications, like rubber-impregnated narrow velvet fabrics designed to cover weaving spindles. These materials are engineered for specific industrial functions, often requiring properties like abrasion resistance, precise surface texture, or cushioning. Importers are typically textile machinery manufacturers, textile mills, and other industrial equipment producers requiring these precision components. Exporters are niche technical textile manufacturers with expertise in specialized coatings and laminations. The 'technical purposes' and specific applications like 'card clothing' are key.
Products Under This Code
Card clothing foundation fabric, rubber-impregnated spindle tapes, felt-lined polishing fabrics, coated industrial felts, technical woven fabrics for machinery, laminated textile components for rollers, specialized abrasive backing fabrics
Real World Examples
Graf Card Clothing, Trützschler Carding Elements, G. Stäubli AG (textile machinery components), A. Monforts Textilmaschinen (specialized fabrics), Siegling (now Forbo Siegling) technical fabrics
Common Misclassification
Can be confused with general coated/laminated textiles (590300, 590700) if the specific 'technical purpose' or 'card clothing' application is overlooked, or with other industrial felts (5602) if the woven fabric component is not recognized.
Products Classified Under 5911.10
Industry
This code belongs to the Textiles & Clothing industry.
Trade Overview
Countries with strong textile manufacturing industries or advanced machinery production are major importers; specialized technical textile producers in Europe and Asia are key exporters.
