Crepe fabric is a thin plain cotton fabric with uniform longitudinal wrinkles on the surface, also known as crepe yarn.


The characteristic of crepe fabric is that it uses regular cotton yarn in the warp direction and strong twisted yarn in the weft direction. The warp density of the fabric is greater than the weft density. After weaving into the fabric, it is loose dyed and processed, reducing the weft direction by about 30%, thus forming uniform wrinkles. The material used is pure cotton or polyester cotton.


Wrinkled fabrics can be further processed into bleached, variegated, or printed fabrics. Crepe fabric has a lightweight texture, natural and durable wrinkles, and is elastic. It feels refreshing and soft to the touch, making it comfortable to wear. Mainly used for various shirts, skirts, sleepwear, bathrobes, children's shirts, skirts, etc.

The advantages of crepe fabric:


Its main component is generally cotton, which can be divided into single-layer, double-layer, and three-layer according to the number of layers. Crepe fabric is processed on the basis of gauze to make its surface have uniform longitudinal wrinkles. This fabric has a cool and soft touch, good elasticity, and also has excellent breathability. Crepe fabric is suitable for wearing in all seasons, and after printing and dyeing, it will have a better visual experience. It is suitable for producing baby pajamas, dresses, and casual clothing.


Disadvantages of crepe fabric:

There are many production processes in crepe fabric, which leads to an increase in production costs. The complex processes also cause hidden wrinkles or wrinkles in the fabric, which are the main defects of crepe fabric.


Precautions before using wrinkled fabric:


Before use, let it sink into the water and wait for it to shrink sufficiently before cutting and making clothes.


When washing, it is important to avoid using regular soap and instead use neutral detergents; Do not rub vigorously and do not use a brush to brush.


After washing, be sure to rinse thoroughly, otherwise it is easy to have flower spots and spots; Water should be squeezed lightly, leveled and air dried, and it is not advisable to use an iron for heavy ironing to avoid wrinkles.


When wearing it on a regular basis, it is important to avoid contact with rough surfaces to prevent the hook threads from fuzzing and damaging wrinkled tissues.


When storing, it should be stacked and placed inside the box. Do not hang it for a long time, as crepe clothing will hang longer and longer under the influence of gravity, causing damage to the uneven shape and stretching state formed by twisting the fabric.
