About the Tote Bag Manufactured from Canvas Fabric

Canvas is a popular fabric choice for tote bags, and it's also used in products like sneakers, curtains, and aprons. It's made by weaving cotton or hemp fibres in an alternating pattern. Many canvas tote bags are produced in China, which is known for its large cotton output and numerous large-scale factories. Production has also increased in countries like India, Vietnam, and Cambodia in recent years.
CUSTA offers canvas tote bags in various sizes and shapes, sourcing materials from multiple countries, including China and Vietnam.

Characteristics of Canvas Fabric

Canvas made from cotton is known for its durability and ease of washing. It is practical and can be produced more affordably than canvas made from other materials.

Thickness of Canvas Fabric

The thickness of canvas fabric is measured in 'gsm' or 'oz '. GSM refers to the weight per square meter, while oz indicates the weight per square yard. Here's a table summarizing the thickness of canvas fabric to help you choose the right product:

gsm/oz	Fabric Name	Features

DTF Printing

DTF (Direct-to-Fablic) printing is a method where a design printed on film using an inkjet printer is heat-pressed onto fabric. It's an excellent option for designs with photos or vibrant colours. Unlike silk screen printing, it doesn't require plates so you can print even a single piece without any minimum quantity requirement.

However, DTF printing has some downsides. Since the design is heat-pressed onto the fabric, it sits on top rather than blending in, resulting in a different finish than silk screen printing. Also, it's generally not automated for large-scale production, making it costlier for bulk orders.

Silk Screen Printing

Silk screen printing involves creating holes in a mesh screen to pass ink through and print onto a material. It's a standard method used for many commercial and industrial products. It can print on various materials, offers vibrant, fabric-blended colours, and is highly durable. For large orders, it can significantly reduce costs.

The drawbacks of silk screen printing include the need for plates, making it expensive for small orders, and increased costs with more colours due to the need for additional plates.

Embroidery

Embroidery involves stitching coloured threads onto fabric. Its main feature is its luxury feel. Different from printing, the unique texture of embroidery is recommended for those who want special custom products. It's also highly durable and less prone to degradation from washing or sunlight, making it ideal for long-term use.

However, embroidery can be more expensive than printing due to the labour and time involved. It's also not suited for fine lines or text, so using thicker fonts in your embroidery designs is advisable.
