national industry 325220

Artificial and Synthetic Fibers and Filaments Manufacturing

Overview

This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in (1) manufacturing cellulosic (e.g., rayon, acetate) and noncellulosic (e.g., nylon, polyolefin, polyester) fibers and filaments in the form of monofilament, filament yarn, staple, or tow or (2) manufacturing and texturing cellulosic and noncellulosic fibers and filaments.

The immediate parent of national industry 325220 is international industry 32522: Artificial and Synthetic Fibers and Filaments Manufacturing
