Wadding, felt or nonwovens, impregnated, coated or covered substances or
preparations (for example, perfumes or cosmetics of Chapter 33, soaps or
detergents of heading 34.01, polishes, creams or similar preparations of
heading 34.05, fabric softeners of heading 38.09) where the textile material
is present merely as a carrying medium; |

|
2.
The term “felt” includes needleloom felt and fabrics consisting of a web of
textile fibres the cohesion of which has been enhanced by a stitch- bonding
process using fibres from the web itself. |
|
3.
Headings 56.02 and 56.03 cover respectively felt and nonwovens, impregnated,
coated, covered or laminated with plastics or rubber whatever the nature of
these materials (compact or cellular). |
|
Heading
56.03 also includes nonwovens in which plastics or rubber forms the bonding
substance. |
|
Headings
56.02 and 56.03 do not, however, cover: |
|
(a)
Felt impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics or rubber,
containing 50 % or less by weight of textile material or felt completely
embedded in plastics or rubber (Chapter 39 or 40); |
|
(b)
Nonwovens, either completely embedded in plastics or rubber, or entirely
coated or covered on both sides with such materials, provided that such
coating or covering can be seen with the naked eye with no account being
taken of any resulting change of colour (Chapter 39 or 40); or |
|
(c)
Plates, sheets or strip of cellular plastics or cellular rubber combined with
felt or nonwovens, where the textile material is present merely for
reinforcing purposes (Chapter 39 or 40). |
|
4.
Heading 56.04 does not cover textile yarn, or strip or the like of heading
54.04 or 54.05, in which the impregnation, coating or covering cannot be seen
with the naked eye (usually Chapters 50 to 55); for the purpose of this
provision, no account should be taken of any resulting change of colour. |
