HS Code 6005.35 – Fabrics; warp knit (including those made on galloon knitting machines), other than those of headings 60.01 to 60.04, of synthetic fibres specified in Subheading Note 1 to this Chapter
HS code 6005.35 is the 6-digit subheading for fabrics, warp knit (including those made on galloon knitting machines), other than those of headings 60.01 to 60.04, of synthetic fibres specified in Subheading Note 1 to this Chapter. It is used for high-tenacity polyester tricot, nylon power mesh for sportswear, automotive headliner fabric, industrial filter fabric and medical compression fabric.
What HS 6005.35 covers
This HS code covers warp knit fabrics made from specific high-tenacity synthetic fibers, as detailed in Subheading Note 1 to Chapter 60. These are not just any synthetic fabrics; they are engineered for superior strength, durability, and performance, often utilizing materials like high-tenacity polyester or nylon. Consequently, they are crucial in technical textiles, high-performance sportswear, automotive interiors, and industrial applications where resilience and specific functional properties are paramount. Major importers include specialized textile manufacturers, garment producers focusing on activewear or workwear, and industrial material suppliers. Exporters are typically advanced textile mills with capabilities in producing high-tech synthetic knits. Key considerations for trade include material specifications, performance certifications, and adherence to industry standards for strength and longevity.

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).
