About HS Code 600522
This HS code covers warp knit fabrics made of cotton, which are dyed. Warp knitting creates fabrics with excellent dimensional stability, good drape, and often a degree of stretch, making them highly versatile. These dyed cotton warp knits are extensively used in various sectors, including apparel (e.g., sportswear, intimate apparel, casual wear, linings), home textiles (e.g., bedding, upholstery components), and some technical applications. The 'dyed' characteristic means the fabric has already been colored, making it a semi-finished product ready for cutting and sewing into garments or other articles. Importers are typically garment manufacturers, textile converters, and retailers seeking finished or near-finished fabric solutions. Exporters are textile mills with advanced knitting and dyeing capabilities.
