Cotton Grades & Yarn Specifications

Combed vs. Carded Long-Staple Cotton

We prioritize combed long-staple cotton to eliminate short fibers and impurities, resulting in higher yarn tensile strength and minimal surface pilling across repeat laundry cycles.

  • Fiber Purity: Zero-lint finish for clear dye uptake and smooth cutting-table flow.
  • Fiber Types: Combed Indian long-staple cotton and premium Pima-grade lots upon custom order.

Patterns, Finishes & Dyeing Methods

Screen-Printed, Hand-Block & Digital Patterns

Tulsi Prints specializes in artisanal and commercial printing techniques:

  • Direct Screen Printing: High-speed rotary and flatbed screen prints for geometric micro-patterns, checks, and large runs.
  • Authentic Jaipur Block Printing: Handcrafted botanical, floral, and heritage motifs for niche boutique capsules.
  • Discharge & Pigment Prints: High color clarity on deep bases with a zero-hand feel that stays breathable.

Yarn-Dyed Checks, Stripes & Solids

Woven using pre-dyed yarns to ensure complete color saturation through the fabric core.

  • Patterns: Classic gingham, windowpane plaid, micro-stripes, and solid plains.
  • Lot Consistency: Spectrophotometer-matched dye batches to ensure consistent shade bands across production lots.

Performance & Soft-Wash Finishes

Every shirting roll goes through controlled wet processing to stabilize the fabric before cutting:

  • Pre-Shrunk & Mercerized: Pre-treated to keep residual shrinkage under 3–4% and enhance yarn luster.
  • Peach-Skin & Bio-Wash: Optional enzyme washes to provide an ultra-soft casual touch.
