Canvas fabric is a type of woven fabric made from tightly woven thick yarns, distinguished by its durable and sturdy structure.
It is generally made from 100% cotton, cotton-polyester blends, or recycled natural fibers. Thanks to its stiff, matte, and robust texture, it offers both durability and a natural look.
Named after the canvas used for paintings, this fabric has been used throughout history in areas requiring high strength, such as tents, bags, awnings, and workwear; today, it has also found its place in the world of decorative textiles and fashion.
