Fabric That Keeps Uniforms Smart, Comfortable and Consistent
Uniforms represent a brand every working day. The fabric behind them has to stay comfortable through long shifts, survive frequent washing and hold the same shade from the first order to the hundredth. Cotton Canvas supplies breathable, hard-wearing cotton and cotton-poly fabric built for daily wear, washing and movement on the job.
Fabric is woven and finished to tight tolerances, giving garment factories a consistent base for cutting, stitching and sizing at scale.

Uniform Fabric: Frequently Asked Questions
What fabric is best for uniforms?
Polyester-cotton blends such as 65/35 are the most widely used uniform fabrics because they resist creasing, hold colour and survive frequent washing. 100% cotton is preferred where comfort and breathability matter most, and cotton drill or twill is used for trousers, jackets and industrial uniforms.
What is the difference between twill and drill for uniforms?
Both are diagonal weaves. Drill is a heavier, tighter twill used for workwear and trousers that face abrasion, while lighter twills are common for shirts, service uniforms and jackets.
Can uniform fabric be dyed to our corporate colours?
Yes. Uniform fabric can be dyed to your corporate shades using vat, reactive or disperse dyes, with controlled tolerances to keep colours consistent across repeat orders.
Is uniform fabric pre-shrunk?
Yes. Uniform fabric is pre-shrunk before dispatch so garments keep their size and fit after washing.
Can you supply flame-retardant or water-repellent uniform fabric?
Yes. Flame-retardant, water-repellent and soil-release finishes are available for industrial, security and service uniforms.
Do you supply samples before bulk orders?
Yes. Samples and technical data are available for approval before bulk production. Contact info@cottoncanvas.com with your requirements.
Do you export uniform fabric?
Yes. Cotton Canvas manufactures in Kanpur, India, and has supplied fabric since 1983 to uniform and garment manufacturers worldwide.
