- Certain cotton yarns for use in the manufacture of towels
- Certain woven fabrics for use as knee lining in the manufacture of trousers
- Certain woven fabrics for use in the manufacture of dresses, skirts, vests, blouses, tops and scarves
- Certain viscose rayon yarn for use in the manufacture of mattress ticking
- Certain nylon staple fibres for use in the manufacture of footwear
- Certain narrow woven “hook and loop” pile fabrics
- Certain three and four layer woven and knit fabrics for use in the manufacture of recreational
