Stage 01 / 09 · Material track
Raw material
Cotton is harvested, ginned to separate lint from seed, pressed into bales, then opened and cleaned at the mill. Fibre length, strength and cleanliness shape every decision that follows, from yarn count to the handfeel of the finished T-shirt.
Coordinated
What happens at this stage
Cotton arrives at the mill in compressed bales. Opening and cleaning loosen the fibre and remove trash before it is blended for consistency.
Staple length, strength, micronaire and cleanliness decide how fine a yarn can be spun and how the fabric will feel, pill and wear. Other fibres and blends follow the same logic with different parameters.
