CN Explanatory Notes

The European Commission's explanatory notes on how to classify goods in these CN codes. They are not legally binding but customs authorities follow them; they complement the HS Explanatory Notes of the World Customs Organization.

6005 · Warp knit fabrics (including those made on galloon knitting machines), other than those of headings 6001 to 6004

Warp knit fabrics are fabrics produced on warp knitting machines, raschel machines or crochet galloon machines. Unlike weft knits, they are produced as a result of warp threads becoming interlaced with each other by loops. Warp knits consist of one or more thread systems running lengthwise along the fabric. Adjacent threads become interlaced and at the same time form loops (multi-thread technique) (see also the HS General Explanatory Note to this chapter, A(II)).

The crochet galloon machine belongs to the warp knitting group of machines. It operates with a warp system running lengthwise and with horizontal weft yarns. Crochet galloon machines are often used for making knitted bands for clothing manufacture (elastic bordering bands for the waist and leg, name tapes, shoulder straps, bordering bands, headbands, zip tapes) and for making trimming ribbons for curtains and cushions.
