The warp threads are the lengthwise threads on the fabric loom. These threads are held stationary. The weft threads are woven in the width of the fabric, perpendicular to the warp threads. They are threaded over and under the warp threads. This results in what is called a weave.
Plant fiber. The fiber is extracted from the stem of the Cannabis sativa plant. This fiber is not very permeable to air and water and burns quickly without leaving any molten bead. It is mainly used today in rope making and weaving. In plumbing, it is the thread sealant that is wrapped around a joint.
It is a fibrous material of plant origin such as cotton, linen, burlap and hemp… which can also be man-made from artificial fibers of plant origin such as viscose, acetate and triacetate.
Wedging materials hold an object inside a packaging, to keep it in a given position and stop it from moving. Common wedging products include foam peanuts, bubble film, wood fibre, paper…

Make-ready covers all the machine set-up operations that come before production starts.
Decorative fabric art which adds flat or 3-D designs made of threads using needle- or crochet work.
Signed consent on a machine of a printed proof before serial printing. Also used to approve the blank shape mock-up before cutting.
The roll, is a continuous length of fabric wound on a mandrel. It is in this form that the fabric arrives at the workshop. Our pouches are made directly from the fabric reel. It is the guarantee of a true custom-made and personalized manufacturing. For each pouch, the fabric is cut to the exact dimensions of your request, without any imposed template.
Process of whitening textile fibers and eliminating all natural impurities at the time of textile finishing.
Bleaching is a mechanical-chemical process. It consists of removing the color from textile fibers and cleaning them of all their natural impurities. It takes place during textile finishing. A bleached cotton is whiter, more even, and then takes dye more faithfully. Conversely, an unbleached fabric keeps its natural shade: this is ecru.
Designates the type of weave, in other words the way the warp and weft threads are crossed. There are 3 basic weaving patterns: plain weave (canvas,) twill and satin.
