Hemp + Cotton Blended Fabric

What is Hemp Cotton Fabric?

Hemp fabric is used globally to make casual wear, bedsheets and accessories. When blended with pure cotton, it creates a textile that offers impressive durability.

Key Features in Hemp Cotton Fabric

Strength and Durability

Hemp fabric is five times more sturdy than traditional cotton. Thanks to hemp fibres, the fabric endures wear and washing without losing its quality. This helps the hemp-cotton blend maintain its strength and appearance after multiple washes and wears.

Breathability

This fabric allows air to circulate freely, keeping the wearer feeling comfortable. That’s why this specific material is popular for shirts, casual wear and bed linens.

Hypoallergenic & Gentle on Skin

Thanks to its natural fibres, hemp cotton rarely irritates the skin. This makes it a skin-friendly material. Additionally, the fabric’s breathable nature maintains skin health by preventing excessive moisture accumulation.

Good Moisture Management

Hemp cotton fabrics wick moisture, keeping skin dry and comfortable. This moisture control reduces odour, even if worn extensively.

Retains Shape & Colour Well

Additionally, hemp’s natural resistance to UV rays prevents its colour from fading. Its breathable fibres give comfort in all seasons. This makes the clothes durable and wearable throughout the year.

Benefits of Blending Hemp Fabric with Cotton

Best of Both Worlds

Cotton gives softness and flexibility, while hemp adds durability and structure to it. The blend of cotton and hemp fabrics tends to last longer and get softer with every wash.

Sustainability

A hemp plant requires less water and fewer chemicals compared to 100% cotton. When you choose a hemp and cotton blend, you are supporting an eco-friendly fashion.

Bacteria Resistance

The natural antimicrobial properties present in the hemp cotton blend make the fabric stay fresh, even between washes and after use.

Reduced Harmful Environmental Impact

As conventional cotton is used less in textile production, it reduces the environmental impact, mainly by lowering water consumption and pesticide use.

Care & Handling Tips of Hemp Cotton Fabric

Wash Gently

Wash it in a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water in a machine wash. Hot water can weaken the fabric over time.

Use Eco-Friendly Detergent

For washing the fabric, avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals as they weaken the fibres and cause discolouration with time. Alternatively, choose mild detergents. Plant-based options keep the fabric fresh.

Air Dry for Best Results

Whenever possible, air-dry hemp cotton out in direct sunlight. This prevents fading and keeps the fabric strong. Additionally, you can choose to tumble dry if needed, but remove if slightly damp to avoid over-drying.

Iron on Medium Heat

Iron clothes when slightly damp on medium heat to remove wrinkles. Alternatively, you can use a steamer for gentle wrinkle removal.

Skip Fabric Softeners

Hemp fabrics are softer even after repeated use and washing. There is no additional requirement for softening agents.

Store in a Cool, Dry Place

Keep fabric folded in a well-ventilated, dark area to maintain freshness and prevent potential colour fading.
