Cotton Webbing Tape No 2
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 2 comes off the same narrow fabric looms that have been running here since 1996. The usable thickness range is 0.65 mm to 2.5 mm and custom thicknesses are quoted case by case. Colour is matched to a Pantone number or to a swatch you post to us, and one dye lot is reserved for the whole order. Sampling runs 3 to 7 days; the production window is 7 to 15 days from approval.

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
- 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
- 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

Questions Buyers Ask About Cotton Webbing Tape No 2
What is the difference between ring spun and rotor spun cotton tape
Fibres in ring spun yarn lie closely and evenly, packed loose inside and tight outside. Rotor spun yarn is arranged more loosely. Ring spinning gives less hairiness and a better surface, which is visible on a finished strap.
Can I dye the cotton webbing myself
Yes. We can supply natural or bleached greige tape for you to dye or print, which is common with craft and stationery customers. Tell us before weaving, as the finishing differs.
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.
