HS Code 6001.10 – Fabrics; long pile fabrics, knitted or crocheted
HS code 6001.10 is the 6-digit subheading for fabrics, long pile fabrics, knitted or crocheted. It is used for faux fur fabric, sherpa fleece fabric, high-pile plush fabric, teddy bear fabric and long-pile velour.
What HS 6001.10 covers
This category encompasses knitted or crocheted textiles characterized by their extended, often shaggy, surface fibers. These "long pile" fabrics are crucial in sectors requiring warmth, softness, or a luxurious aesthetic. International trade sees these materials moving from major textile manufacturing hubs, particularly in Asia, to consumer markets in North America and Europe. Importers include apparel manufacturers for winter wear, home textile producers for blankets and throws, and toy makers for plush items. Exporters are typically countries with strong textile industries and access to synthetic fiber production. Key considerations for trade involve fiber composition (synthetic vs. natural), pile height and density, and compliance with flammability standards, especially for children's products. The versatility of long pile fabrics makes them a staple in fashion, home decor, and specialty applications, driving consistent global demand.

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).
