Product type
Open end cotton yarn is a type of yarn produced using an open-end spinning process, which allows for the creation of yarn without the need for a traditional spindle. This method involves feeding cotton fibers into a rotor, where they are twisted together to form yarn. Open end cotton yarn is known for its strength and durability, making it suitable for a variety of textile applications. It is typically used in the production of fabrics, garments, and home textiles due to its softness and breathability.
