Cotton Webbing Tape No 5
Ring spun cotton tape with a soft matt face, specified by yarn count so the hand you approve is the hand you receive.
What This Item Is
Cotton Webbing Tape No 5 is built around your specification rather than around what happens to be on the shelf. Thickness runs from 0.65 mm to 2.5 mm, or to your own figure, and width is set by your drawing. Pantone matching is standard, and reserving a single dye lot is what keeps the shade steady from first roll to last. Samples take 3 to 7 days and production 7 to 15 days once the sample is approved.

How It Compares
Cotton gives the natural hand and takes later dyeing, which polyester will not. Polyester holds length and colour far better and does not mildew, so it wins outdoors.
Polypropylene is lighter, cheaper and will not rot, but nothing about it feels natural. For anything touching skin or paired with natural fabric, cotton is the honest choice.
Linen carries more strength and durability but is less pliable. Cotton is more flexible and easier to work with, which matters where the tape has to be glued or turned.
Use Guide
- Ask for greige tape if you plan to dye or print in your own facility
- Quote a yarn count rather than words like soft or heavy; 21s and 40s are very different tapes
- Allow for the shrinkage cotton shows on first wash if the finished item is laundered
- Store rolls dry; cotton is the one fibre here that will mildew

Questions Buyers Ask About Cotton Webbing Tape No 5
Will cotton webbing shrink
Some shrinkage on first wash is normal for cotton. If the finished product will be laundered, allow for it in your cut length or ask us about a pre-shrunk finish.
What does yarn count mean on cotton webbing
Count measures how much yarn length makes up a fixed weight. One pound of 10s measures 10 times 840 yards. The larger the number the finer the yarn, so 40s gives a lighter, thinner, softer tape and 10s gives a thicker, heavier, coarser one.
What is the minimum order for this item
1000 metres per colour and width on standard production. Some constructions run from 100 metres, so tell us what you need and we will confirm rather than quote a blanket figure.
How quickly can we see a physical sample
3 to 7 days. Production follows in 7 to 15 days once you approve the sample and the colour.
Can you match our colour reference
Yes, to a Pantone number or to a swatch you post to us. You approve a woven sample before the bulk dye lot is committed.
