Product type
Carded cotton fiber is a type of natural fiber derived from the cotton plant, processed through a carding machine to separate and align the fibers. This process removes impurities and short fibers, resulting in a fluffy, uniform mass that is ideal for spinning into yarn. Carded cotton is known for its softness, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties, making it a popular choice in the textile industry.
