Cotton Types

The processing of cotton has an ancient past, it was obtained by wooden or hand tools. After taking the cotton capsule, a ball of filament was obtained which was treated and then sent to the textile industries. Only after the invention of the mechanical loom did the processing of cotton really speed up to reach today’s production size.

Currently, cotton is mainly used in the textile sector, where semi-finished products can be found, such as raw or colored fabric packaging, and a large variety of processed products such as clothing, sheets, towels, etc.

Cotton fabrics can be 100% pure, but very often they are mixed fabrics.

About the product

From the processing of cotton we obtain different types of fabrics including:

  • Virgin cotton: composed of fibers worked for the first time.
  • Regenerated cotton: obtained through the complete recycling of old clothes or scraps from other processes.
  • Hydrophilic cotton: it is a cotton that has a high absorbency and is widely used for sanitary and hygienic uses.

Besides these there are many types of cotton that are obtained to create clothing, towels and pieces of furniture. This cotton is combined with other fibers or materials in order to have many different types of fabrics.
