A variety of sewing threads are used in our garment industry, and the characteristics of sewing threads also have their unique properties due to their different materials. Sewing thread refers to the thread used for sewing textile materials, plastics, leather products and sewing books and periodicals. Sewing thread is characterized by sewability, durability and quality appearance. Sewing threads are generally divided into three types: natural fiber type, chemical fiber type, and mixed type due to their different materials.

Let me tell you in detail about the types of sewing threads! Cotton sewing thread: good heat resistance, elasticity, abrasion resistance, moisture resistance, and antibacterial ability are poor, suitable for high-speed sewing and durable pressing. The most used is long-staple pure cotton thread: it is made of long-staple cotton through combing, singeing, mercerizing, and high-density twisting, so the tensile force is better than ordinary combed pure cotton.

Often used for sewing cotton clothing and other cotton fabrics. Pure cotton thread: It is generally divided into two parts: carded and combed. The real 100% pure cotton thread that can be used for sewing is fully combed cotton. Generally, 402, 202, and 203 are used. It is combed and singeed from high-quality cotton in the cotton area. Pure cotton thread is often used for sewing of pure cotton clothing and other pure cotton fabrics.

Polyester sewing thread: high strength, flat and beautiful stitches, wear-resistant; no mildew or rot, low price, rich colors, not easy to fade, not shrink. Polyester-cotton sewing thread: It is made of 65% polyester staple fiber and 35% cotton fiber blend. The thread has high strength, good wear resistance, small shrinkage rate, good flexibility and elasticity, and good heat resistance. Various garments can be sewn. Nylon sewing thread: strong elongation, good elasticity, smooth texture, silky luster, excellent wear resistance.
