• Clothing, clothing textiles and accessories consisting of at least 90% by weight of textile fibres;
• Interior textiles consisting of at least 90% by weight of textile fibres;
• Fibre, yarn and fabric (including durable non-woven fabric) intended for use in textile clothing, accessories or interior textiles;
