Technical Specifications & Parameters
| Specification Attribute | Standard Spec |
|---|---|
| Texture | The appearance of the fabric seems like mesh. |
| Strength | After being treated with a sizing agent, it is much stiffer, lasts longer, and is much stronger. |
| Water-resistant | Because it is coated, the fabric is also water-resistant because the coating stops liquids from penetrating the cloth and being trapped inside it. |
What is Buckram Fabric?
- The cotton or hemp that is woven into buckram cloth results in a coarse, heavy, and open plain weave fabric.
- Because the fabric is soaked in starch and other sizing agents before being dried, the cloth had the characteristics of being stiff and coarse.
- Buckram is mostly used in the clothing industry to give clothes shape and structure.
History
- Textile historians and experts think that the word came from Bukhara, which is in Uzbekistan and is where the fabric was first made.
- On the other hand, there are many who think that it originated from the term bokeram, which refers to a common fabric that is made of cotton.
- The history of the fabric may be traced back to the Middle Ages, and it has evolved into a widespread material in the textile industry.
- Because it is long-lasting and easy to work with, it quickly became a standard in the clothing and fashion industries, and it still is.
What Makes it Stand Out
- Rigidity, durability, and strength
- Keeps Its Shape
- Water-Resistant
- Insect and Mold Repellant
