COTTON

Cotton, a natural cream white fluffy staple textile fiber, holds a major share in most of the wardrobes worldwide. Whether in its plain, dyed, or mixed form, cotton is derived from cotton plants and consists primarily of cellulose. Known for its softness, cotton is an essential and widely used fiber. It thrives in tropical and subtropical regions globally and traces its origins back to India, dating as far back as the fifth millennium B.C. Cotton production involves a meticulous process, starting from planting cotton seeds to harvesting and processing in a cotton gin.

There are four distinct types of cotton, each possessing its own unique characteristics: Pima Cotton, Egyptian cotton, Upland cotton, and Organic cotton. Cotton stands out due to its notable qualities, such as comfort, softness, durability, absorbency, dye retention, breathability, lack of static cling, and machine washability. These features contribute to cotton's popularity and its status as the most widely used fiber in the textile industry.

Cotton finds applications across various industries, including:

Woven fabrics: Cotton is utilized in the production of diverse woven fabrics like canvas, denim, damask, flannel, and more.

Clothing: With its mass production, soft texture, durability, and absorbency, cotton is a staple in the textile industry. It is commonly used in T-shirts, blue jeans, dresses, sweats, and a wide range of other clothing items.

Bed sheets and towels: Due to its exceptional softness and absorbency, cotton is an ideal fabric for bedroom linens and towels that require efficient moisture absorption.

Innerwear: Cotton's comfort and durability make it an excellent choice for undergarments.

Home decor: Cotton is also extensively employed in upholstery, curtains, rugs, pillows, and other home decor items.

One notable drawback of cotton is its tendency to wrinkle easily and dry slowly. However, cotton can be blended with other fibers, such as polyester, viscose, elastane, linen, and more, to enhance its performance. For instance, cotton-polyester blends are used to create non-iron shirts.
