Rasant is a polyester/cotton core spun thread with a smooth surface that blends into many textile surfaces. Thanks to the combination of continuous filament core with a soft spun cover, core spun threads are extremely high performing. They are easy to sew with on domestic and industrial machines and provide for trouble-free sewing even in difficult applications, multidirectional sewing, closing and topstitching seams, buttonholes and working with thin fabric. Core spun threads are robust for use when sewing apparel (eg. ladies & menswear, sports & outdoor wear, underwear & lingerie), useful for matte embroidery effects and also for use in technical textiles and denim workwear. Rasant is certified according to 94.0.8268, STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®. Recommended use with 70-80 size needles. Sizes available: 1000m cardboard spool and 5000m plastic cone.
