Poplin
The term poplin originates from another word "papelino" and was first made at Avignon in France. The term derives from the term used for the papal residence situated there in the 15th century and from a fabric termed "papeline" made from silk in the same century.
Traditionally it is made of two different types of yarns woven together, one in the weft (the worsted yarn) and the other in the warp (the silk). It can be made of many yarns including wool, cotton, silk and rayon.
The combination of two different yarns give the fabric depth and lustre as well as stoutness making it great for work wear and even upholstery. Shirts made from this fabric do not wrinkle easily and are easy to iron.
Sew.... at NEO CCS we would use this fabric to make medical uniforms or shirts for the hospitality sector, how about you?
