Woven labels Hs Code

Woven labels harmonized system code

Product Overview Woven labels classified under HS Code 580710 are textile-based identification markers produced through intricate weaving techniques, resulting in durable and high-resolution designs. These labels typically consist of synthetic fibers such as polyester or nylon, with standard dimensions ranging from 20mm to 100mm in width, and variable lengths customized per client specifications. Manufactured using jacquard or dobby looms, these labels exhibit precise color fidelity, abrasion resistance, and dimensional stability, meeting stringent quality control parameters including tensile strength exceeding 15 Newtons per centimeter and colorfastness ratings of 4 or higher on the ISO 105 scale. The HS Code 580710 encompasses subcategories including brand identification labels, care instruction labels, and size markers, each differentiated by weave density and finishing processes such as heat sealing or anti-fray treatments. Commercially, woven labels serve critical functions across food service uniforms, retail apparel branding, and industrial processing garments, providing essential information and brand visibility. Their value proposition lies in their longevity, clarity under frequent laundering, and compliance with regulatory labeling standards, positioning them as indispensable components in global textile supply chains. HS Code Classification & Trade Specifications The HS Code 580710 falls within Chapter 58 (Special Woven Fabrics; Tufted Textiles; Lace; Tapestries; Trimmings; Embroidery), specifically Heading 5807, which covers woven labels, badges, and similar articles. This subheading (5807.10) is designated for woven labels, reflecting their classification as textile articles distinguished by weaving methods rather than printing or embroidery. The classification rationale is grounded in the product’s manufacturing process—interlacing warp and weft yarns to form identifying patterns—differentiating it from printed or embroidered counterparts (HS 5808). For international trade, woven labels are typically packaged in moisture-resistant, anti-static materials and shipped in standardized cartons or pallets adhering to ISPM 15 phytosanitary standards when wooden packaging is used. Preservation techniques often include vacuum sealing or desiccant inclusion to maintain fiber integrity during transit. Quality standards comply with ISO 9001 manufacturing protocols and meet regulatory requirements such as REACH and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certifications, ensuring chemical safety and consumer protection. This detailed classification and adherence to trade specifications facilitate accurate customs clearance and support seamless cross-border commerce.
