What HS 6006.34 covers
This HS code applies to printed knitted or crocheted fabrics of synthetic fibres, excluding those of headings 60.01 to 60.04. These fabrics are crucial for creating visually striking and high-performance apparel, particularly in activewear, swimwear, and fashion segments where bold designs are paramount. Importers include activewear brands, swimwear manufacturers, fashion apparel companies, and digital textile printers seeking vibrant and durable prints on synthetic bases. Exporters are textile manufacturers with advanced printing technologies, such as sublimation printing, which is ideal for synthetics. Key considerations in trade involve print quality, color vibrancy, stretch retention after printing, resistance to chlorine or UV (for swimwear), and the ability to reproduce complex digital designs accurately.

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).
