Hemp is an ancient fiber plant with good moisture absorption and breathability. Types include hemp, ramie, flax, apocynum, jute, etc. They are tough and were the first textile material used to make clothing. Since different types of hemp fibers have different properties, we often consider the use when selecting them. So, if hemp fabrics are used to make clothing, which fabric is the best?

Hemp: healthy fiber with antibacterial and radiation protection
Cannabis is also called “hemp, hemp” because its cross-section is more complex than ramie, flax, cotton, and wool (triangular, four- to hexagonal, oblate, waist, etc.) round, etc.), the middle cavity is often different from the outer shape. When light shines in, part of it forms multi-layer refraction or absorption, and a large amount forms diffuse reflection, making the linen fabric not only look shiny and soft, but also have excellent UV radiation protection function. On the other hand, because hemp fiber is hollow and usually contains oxygen, anaerobic bacteria cannot survive. It has an obvious killing effect on Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, white cocci, etc. It can be antibacterial without using any chemicals. It is a standard green product.

Ramie: The king of natural fibers with the best overall performance
Ramie fiber is not only bright and white, but also has the longest fiber length among hemp and has good elasticity. Ramie fiber is recognized as the “King of Natural Fibers” due to its groove-like cavity in the middle and many slender pores in the wall. It is tough and light in texture. Used to make clothes, it has the characteristics of coolness, moisture absorption, breathability and crispness. However, linen fabrics are generally not very close-fitting, so ramie fabrics are not suitable for use as thermal clothing in winter. On the contrary, it is more suitable for summer clothing, and it also looks very elegant when used as winter clothing.

Linen: a soft and warm absorbent expert
Flax fiber is thick and short, and feels as soft as cotton; in terms of strength, the strength of flax is relatively high among plant fibers, and the strength can be increased by 10 when wet. %, which has better water absorption than cotton; the most worry-free thing is that the maximum ironing temperature of linen is about 232℃, which will not produce static electricity and pilling; based on these excellent properties, linen has become a popular choice for women’s tops, suits, One of the best raw materials for sports jackets and high-end tablecloths and napkins at a high price

Apocynum: silky smooth, blended Significant advantages
Apocynum is a leader among wild fiber plants. In addition to the characteristics of ordinary hemp, it also has a good silk-like feel. However, because the surface of apocynum is smooth and non-curled, and its cohesion force is small, it is easy to fall apart during textile processing, resulting in a low production rate and affecting the quality of the yarn. Therefore, apocynum is an excellent fiber second only to ramie in terms of hemp fiber quality. Its fiber elongation is small and it is suitable for blending with cotton, wool, and silk.

Jute: Thick and beautiful carpet raw material
Jute usually exists in the form of bundles of fibers. Uneven fiber lengths often affect the strength of the yarn. In the past, jute was often used as a raw material for making sacks. But because jute fiber is white and shiny, hygroscopic, and disperses water quickly, it is also used to weave carpets and curtains.

Although, among all linen fabrics, linen and ramie are the best fabrics for textile clothing. Ramie fiber is longer than flax fiber, and its color is brighter and glossier. But did you know that fine fibers like ramie have been taken to new heights! Hunan Ruiya High-Tech’s all-ramie fabrics have always been loved by consumers. In order to further improve textile technology, Ruiya High-tech has developed bamboo and linen blending technology.��, has been patented and has been recognized and awarded by the Hunan Provincial Government. The Puyan collection store is now established, hoping to showcase bamboo and hemp clothing through Puyan, an offline space that Lohas people like. Consumers who have experienced bamboo and linen clothing said: Bamboo and linen clothing makes up for the shortcomings of linen fabrics that are not comfortable enough, making the clothes more textured.
