You submitted three representative samples which were identified as 16-18, and it is understood that this request applies to prospective transactions.

Item 16 consists of a weft insert warp knit fabric. Items 17 and 18 consist of woven fabrics composed of 100% polyester man-made fibers. All three items have been completely coated or covered on both sides with a compact polyvinyl chloride plastics material. Item 16 differs slightly from the other two materials in that its fabric is of a open mesh construction (about 1/16') You provided the following technical information for these five materials which will be imported as roll goods:
