Which code does this activity belong in?
Knit Fabric Mills establishments produce fabric through knitting processes, either weft or warp, and may also finish or further fabricate the resulting materials into products other than apparel. This distinguishes them from Broadwoven Fabric Mills, which weave rather than knit fabric; from Narrow Fabric Mills, which produce specialized narrow woven goods; and from Nonwoven Fabric Mills, which bond fibers rather than interlocking them through knitting or weaving.
