Today I sat down and read further about fashion fabrics. This is what I picked up today, I hope you are interested in another textile fabric to educate yourself!
Kapok
This fabric belongs to the semen-fabrics. The fabric is taken from the inside of the fruit wall of tropical trees. The fibre has a lengths of between 15mm – 40mm. Due to the high air property (80%) the fabric is best used for fillings, softness, and heat isolation.
The fabric has no scent and is water repulsive. Since kapok is not tear proof it is mostly used for filling cushions, blankets, or mattresses.
