Hemp is a natural fiber valued for its durability, strength, and moisture absorption. Rather than offering hemp as a single-fiber fabric, KINGSOO combines hemp with cotton or organic cotton to create different fleece and terry fabric options.
The current range includes two hemp and organic cotton fleece blends and one hemp cotton terry fabric. These differences in hemp content, cotton type, and fabric construction give buyers several ways to specify hemp fabric for different product requirements.
Hemp contributes strength, durability, and absorbency, while cotton adds a softer hand feel. Combining the two allows the fabric to retain the characteristics of hemp while offering a more balanced textile structure for finished products.
KINGSOO currently uses both regular cotton and organic cotton in its hemp fabric range. This creates two distinct blend directions:
The blend ratio also varies. KINGSOO offers fleece with either 40% or 55% hemp, allowing buyers to choose between two different hemp contents without changing the basic hemp-and-organic-cotton material combination.
| Fabric Option | Composition | Construction |
|---|---|---|
| Hemp Organic Cotton Fleece | 40% Hemp / 60% Organic Cotton | Fleece |
| Hemp Organic Cotton Fleece | 55% Hemp / 45% Organic Cotton | Fleece |
| Hemp Cotton Terry | 40% Hemp / 60% Cotton | Terry |
The range can be divided into two groups: hemp organic cotton fleece and hemp cotton terry.
Two compositions are available in the same fleece construction:
40% Hemp / 60% Organic Cotton Fleece combines a lower hemp percentage with a higher organic cotton percentage.
55% Hemp / 45% Organic Cotton Fleece increases the hemp content while retaining organic cotton as the second fiber.
Because both use fleece construction, the main confirmed difference between these two options is their fiber ratio. Buyers who have a specific hemp-content requirement can therefore compare the two compositions directly.
KINGSOO's third option is 40% Hemp / 60% Cotton Terry.
Unlike the two fleece fabrics, this option uses regular cotton rather than organic cotton and is produced in a terry construction. It therefore differs in both the cotton component and the fabric structure.
Hemp fabric has good moisture-absorption and heat-dissipation characteristics, helping create a cooler and more comfortable fabric feel.
Hemp fiber offers good strength and wear resistance. Its wet strength is also an important characteristic, helping the material maintain durability when exposed to moisture.
Compared with traditional coarse linen fabrics, properly processed hemp fabrics can provide a smoother surface with less of the rough or scratchy feel sometimes associated with linen materials.
Hemp fabric is less prone to static electricity and dust attraction, which can make the material easier to care for during everyday use.
Hemp fiber is also valued for its naturally antibacterial characteristics, adding another functional property to the material.
