Tela, an interlining layer that gives garments the desired stiffness and smooth appearance by bonding two fabrics together using various methods.
Many of us prefer products from leading brands in the ready-to-wear industry, but we often lack sufficient knowledge about how these products are manufactured and assembled.
Tela, commonly used in trouser pieces, collars, and shirt cuffs, is utilized in various ways in different areas, chosen according to properties such as stiffness or softness for different purposes.
Providing volume and stiffness to processed fabrics, tela shapes garments and helps maintain the fabric's form during washing, ironing, and other processes, achieving the desired appearance.
Fabric interlining obtained from nonwoven products comes in various types depending on the bonding methods. Heat-bonded interlinings are preferred for cost-effective and soft textures, while chemically bonded interlinings are used in more rigid and durable applications such as belts and embroidery.
Woven interlinings are generally used in coats, jackets, and outerwear to provide a smooth appearance in the chest and front areas. Various types of woven interlinings differ in fibers, yarn thickness, weaving structure, and fabric weight.
Knitted interlinings, primarily used in outerwear products, come in various types such as flat knitting, circular knitting, and warp knitting.
