TERRY TOWEL FABRICS DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Terry fabrics – soft and absorbent textiles in a wide range
Terry fabrics are textiles known for their soft feel, excellent moisture absorption and versatile usability. The category includes single-sided terry and double-sided terry, which are suitable for different applications due to their different structural design. Terry fabric by the metre is an ideal choice for making towels, bathrobes, baby textiles, apparel products and home textiles.
The characteristic looped structure of terry fabrics allows for quick moisture absorption and a pleasant, soft feel. The looped surface increases the fabric's moisture-absorbing capacity while providing a comfortable, skin-friendly sensation. Cotton base material gives a natural feel, while in some variants polyester content can increase durability and shape retention. As a result, terry textiles can be widely used in the clothing industry, home textile manufacturing and creative sewing projects.
Terry fabric by the metre is available in different thicknesses and compositions, so you can choose from lighter or thicker variants. The different structural designs allow you to choose the terry fabric that best suits the intended use, whether it's bathroom textiles, baby products or comfort apparel. For jumpers and tracksuits, French terry and brushed fleece by the metre are available in this same comfort category.
Single-sided and double-sided terry fabrics
Two main types are distinguished in the terry category: single-sided terry and double-sided terry. Single-sided terry has a looped surface on one side, while the other side is smooth. This structural design results in a lighter, more elastic and versatile textile.
Double-sided terry, on the other hand, has a looped surface on both sides, which increases moisture absorption and softness. Due to its double-sided structure, this type is particularly popular for making bathroom and household textiles.
Single-sided terry
Single-sided terry is a textile with a soft looped surface, one side of which is looped, the other smooth. This design provides a lighter weight and more versatile usability, making it a suitable choice for various apparel and home textile projects.
Single-sided terry is often made from a blend of cotton and polyester, which provides a pleasant feel and durable use. Some variants can also be made with a special functional layer, which further expands the usage possibilities. If you also need a smooth-surfaced, lighter cotton textile for the same project, the jersey fabrics make a good complement.
