HS Code 6001.29 – Fabrics; looped pile fabrics, of textile materials (other than cotton or man-made fibres), knitted or crocheted
HS code 6001.29 is the 6-digit subheading for fabrics, looped pile fabrics, of textile materials (other than cotton or man-made fibres), knitted or crocheted. It is used for wool terry fabric, bamboo terry fabric, hemp terry fabric, silk looped fabric and linen terry blend.
What HS 6001.29 covers
This HS code covers knitted or crocheted looped pile fabrics made from textile materials other than cotton or man-made fibers. This "other" category often includes natural fibers like wool, silk, linen, or blends where these non-specified fibers are predominant. These specialized fabrics are traded globally, catering to niche markets that value the unique properties of these alternative fibers, such as the warmth of wool or the luxurious feel of silk. Importers typically include high-end apparel brands, specialty home textile manufacturers, and designers seeking unique textures. Exporters are often countries with specific agricultural resources or advanced textile processing for these particular fibers. Key trade considerations involve the specific fiber composition, ethical sourcing, sustainability certifications, and the unique performance characteristics offered by these less common materials, making them a distinct segment in the global textile trade.

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).
