Natural Fibers
Natural fibers originate from plants, animals or minerals in nature and have unique properties and textures. These fibers are extracted and treated to create a variety of fabrics. Common natural fibers include cotton, linen, silk, wool.
Natural fibers often have good breathability, moisture wicking and comfort properties, making them a popular choice in clothing manufacturing. In addition, natural fibers can be better harmonized with the environment because they are biodegradable and renewable.

Synthetic Fibers
Synthetic fibers are chemical fibers that are synthesized through artificial means and are used to make a variety of fabrics. Common synthetic fibers include polyester , nylon, spandex and acrylic. These fibers have good strength and durability, and often have excellent water and wrinkle resistance.
Synthetic fibers can also be specially treated to achieve a variety of special functions, such as antibacterial and UV protection. Due to their diverse properties and economy, synthetic fibers are widely used in fashion and sportswear
Polyester fabric
Polyester fabric is a synthetic fabric made from polyester fibers. It is known for its durability, wrinkle resistance and excellent color retention. Polyester fabric is used in a wide variety of apparel items, such as shirts, skirts and jackets.
Spandex fabric
Spandex fabric, also known as elastane or Lycra, is a stretchable synthetic fabric. It is known for its exceptional elasticity and ability to hold its shape. Spandex fabrics are often blended with other fabrics to provide stretch and comfort for a variety of apparel items such as sportswear, swimwear and athletic wear. It allows freedom of movement and provides a snug fit.
Nylon fabric
Nylon fabric is a lightweight and strong synthetic fabric made of nylon fiber. It is known for its high tensile strength, abrasion resistance and fast drying properties. Nylon fabric is commonly used in sportswear, swimwear and outdoor gear because of its durability and ability to withstand harsh conditions.
Acrylic fabric
Acrylic fabric is a synthetic fabric made from acrylic fibers. It is known for its softness, warmth and lightness. Acrylic fabric is often used as an alternative to wool because of its similar look and feel. It is commonly used for sweaters, blankets and winter accessories. Spandex fabrics are easy to care for and resist stretching, shrinking and wrinkling.

Semi-Synthetic Fibers
Semi-synthetic fibers are a class of fiber types that are intermediate between natural and synthetic fibers. They are fibers made by chemically transforming natural fibers into fibers that have some of the characteristics of both natural and synthetic fibers.
Common semi-synthetic fibers include modal, Rayon and cupro.These fibers usually have a soft touch, good moisture absorption and breathability, and better durability.

Knitted Fabrics
According to the fabric structure, it can be divided into knitted fabrics and woven fabrics.
Knitted fabrics are made by looping the yarn on a knitting machine using needle hooks. Compared to woven fabrics, knitted fabrics have higher elasticity and softness because they consist of continuous knitted loops.
Knitted fabrics are suitable for making garments such as T-shirts, sweaters, sportswear and underwear because they have good stretch and comfort. Knitted fabrics can also achieve various textures and patterns depending on the knitting method and yarn combinations

Woven Fabrics
Woven fabrics are made of yarns that have been cross-woven. During the weaving process, the yarns are interwoven through the cross weft and longitudinal warp threads to form a flat and strong fabric structure.
Woven fabrics come in many different textures and patterns, depending on the color of the yarn, the fiber level and the weave. Common woven fabrics include denim, cotton, silk and tweed. Each fabric has its own unique characteristics and uses.
Woven fabrics are usually characterized by smoothness, firmness and a certain drape. The tightness of this fabric structure makes it durable and resistant to deformation, so woven fabrics are usually used to make shirts, pants, dresses, bedding and many other garments and home furnishings.
