Combed Cotton Poplin Fabric

Description

What Is Combed Cotton Poplin Fabric?

Poplin fabric is a type of woven fabric, produced using a plain weave construction with fine warp yarns and slightly thicker weft yarns.
Unlike knitted fabrics, woven fabrics such as poplin offer better dimensional stability, a smoother surface, and a more structured appearance.

Combed cotton poplin fabric uses combed cotton fibers, which removes short fibers and impurities, resulting in a cleaner surface, higher strength, and improved comfort compared to regular cotton poplin.

Woven Fabric vs Knitted Fabric (Quick Insight)

Many buyers ask “what is woven fabric?”
In simple terms:

• Woven fabrics (like poplin) are made by interlacing warp and weft yarns, offering stability and shape retention

• Knitted fabrics are looped, providing more stretch and softness

Poplin sits firmly in the woven category and is chosen when a neat, structured look is needed.
