Nonwoven Microdot Fusible Interlinings

Non-woven interlining is a type of fabric used primarily in the garment and textile industries to provide structure, support, and shape to various parts of clothing. Unlike woven interlining, which is made by weaving fibers together, non-woven interlining is made by bonding fibers together using heat, pressure, or adhesives. This results in a fabric that doesn't have a specific grain, making it more versatile and easier to cut in any direction. ### Key Features of Non-Woven Interlining: 1. **Versatility**: It can be used in various parts of garments, such as collars, cuffs, waistbands, and lapels, to give them a defined shape. 2. **Ease of Use**: Since it doesn't have a grain, it can be cut in any direction without worrying about alignment, making it easier to work with. 3. **Lightweight**: Non-woven interlining is generally lighter than woven interlining, making it suitable for delicate fabrics where you want to avoid adding too much bulk. 4. **Adhesive or Sew-in**: It comes in two main types—fusible (with adhesive on one side that can be ironed on) and sew-in (which needs to be stitched in place). 5. **Cost-Effective**: Non-woven interlining is often more affordable than woven interlining, making it a popular choice in mass production. ### Applications: - **Garments**: Used in tailoring to reinforce areas like collars, cuffs, and waistbands. - **Home Textiles**: Used in curtains, cushion covers, and other decorative items to provide structure. - **Crafts**: Commonly used in sewing and crafting projects where extra stiffness is needed. The choice between non-woven and woven interlining depends on the fabric being used, the desired effect, and the specific requirements of the garment or product.
