CORE SPUN


There are two types of core spun sewing thread. They are the poly wrapped poly core (Poly Poly Core Spun), and the cotton wrapped poly core (Cotton Poly Core Spun).


Poly Poly Core Spun thread is a premium poly wrapped poly core spun product that delivers a higher seam strength and sewing performance over spun products, allowing for smaller thread sizes. This helps minimize seam puckering and needle cutting. Poly Poly Core Spun is produced by spinning polyester around a high tenacity continuous-filament core to form a single yarn. Then these yarns are twisted together to make one thread. Because Poly Poly Core Spun is 100% polyester, it offers good chemical and abrasion resistance and superior colorfastness in the finished seam. It is available in a full range of colors and sizes.


Cotton Poly Core Spun thread is a premium cotton wrapped poly core product that is produced like Poly Poly Core Spun except the high tenacity yarn is wrapped with cotton staple instead of polyester. Because of the cotton wrap, it offers better needle heat resistance than Poly Poly Core Spun and provides a “washed down” look during garment-washing processing, giving a soft, low-sheen appearance. Because of the high tenacity continuous-filament core, Cotton Poly Core Spun also offers a high seam strength which allows for small thread sizes. Cotton Poly Core Spun is also available in a full range of colors and sizes.
