What is cotton canvas fabric?
Cotton canvas is a strong, tightly woven plain-weave fabric made from cotton yarn. It is breathable, durable and easy to sew, dye and treat, which makes it ideal for tents, tarpaulins, bags, awnings, upholstery and workwear.
What GSM of cotton canvas is best for my application?
As a guide, 275–350 GSM suits bags, apparel and upholstery; 400–540 GSM suits tents, awnings and rugs; and 600–800 GSM suits tarpaulins and heavy industrial covers. Share your end use and we will recommend the right grade.
What is the difference between cotton canvas and cotton duck?
Both are tightly woven cotton fabrics. “Duck” usually refers to heavier, denser canvas with a very tight weave, used for tents, tarpaulins and industrial covers. We manufacture both plain cotton canvas and heavy duty cotton duck.
Can your cotton canvas be made waterproof or flame retardant?
Yes. We apply waterproof, water repellent, flame retardant, anti-fungal, pre-shrunk and waxed finishes in-house. Tell us the standard your market requires and we will match the finish.
What widths are available?
Our cotton canvas is available in widths up to 200 cm, with custom widths possible depending on the construction and order quantity.
Do you export cotton canvas in bulk rolls?
Yes. As a direct manufacturer we export cotton canvas worldwide in bulk rolls, inspected, labelled and packed for sea or air freight. Samples and technical data sheets are available before you order.
