Organic cotton must be grown without the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and synthetic fertilizers.

How is Different from Cotton?

Other than how jute fabrics feel and look differently from Cotton Fabric there are three main differences:

How Jute is grown: Jute plant is a rain fed crop. It is not prone to pests and does not require much fertilizers. So unlike cotton Jute does not need any insecticide, pesticide and fertilizers. In fact most farmers plant Jute as a crop in between their main cash crop cycles because Jute plan helps the soil regain its nutrients.

· How Jute fibers are processed: Cotton fiber staples are very small in their natural form. So to make the long threads out of cotton staples, they need to go through the chemical bleaching process. Jute staples are very long in their natural form when they are harvested from the Jute Plant. So they don't need any Chemical Bleaching. And are ready for weaving them into a Jute Fabric without the need of any kind of chemical treatment.

· How Jute Fabric is dyed: Jute fabric is very easy to dye. The chemicals dyes used in the process are minimal. Again, the most popular Jute colour is its natural colour, which does not require any kind of dying itself.

What are the popular weights of canvas material that is used in canvas tote bags?

Canvas material is available in 4 oz, 5 oz, 6 oz, 8 oz, 10 oz, 12 oz, 14 oz, 16 oz and 24 oz weights. The popular weights of the canvas material out of those options are the 5 oz for lower quality bags (also known as Cotton totes or Cotton sheeting totes) and 12 oz for durable Canvas Tote Bags. The heavier weights are reserved for fashion tote bags.

What is the difference between 5 oz, 6 oz, 10 oz, 12 oz canvas material?

The differences in weights account for differences in the canvas material. The 5 oz material is thin but also the most popular option for cheap bags, such as those used for grocery shopping in order to prevent the wastage of plastic bags. The 6 oz material is indistinguishable from the 5 oz, so it is often better to opt for the cheaper 5 oz material if deciding between the two.

The 10 oz canvas material is reserved for high quality tote bags that are durable and last several years of use. This material looks even better with age, as it washes and wears well. The 12 oz canvas material is heavy duty and used to make more refined looking bags, encroaching into fashion beyond practicality and simplicity.

What is GSM for Tote Bag and how is GSM calculated?

GSM means grams per meter squared. A gram is a unit of weight. A thousand grams equals one kilogram. Basically, it is another term to determine the weight of the fabric when the material ends up being a blend of two or more fabrics. The higher the GSM, the heavier the weight of the fabric.

What is the difference between canvas and cotton tote bag?

Canvas can be made from cotton through a special weaving process. Although canvas can be made from other materials, including cotton, the build tends to be sturdier than a plain cotton bag.

The advantages of a plain Cotton Tote Bags include the positive environmental impact due to its reusability. They also tend to be cheaper but serve multiple purposes, from errands to shopping. Another benefit of cotton material is the fact that it retains heat transfer, iron and screen-printing extremely well. Cotton itself is heat resistant up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. The material is also easily penetrable by a needle, serving as an adequate canvas for threadwork and embroidery. Cotton bags also tend to be lightweight, between 4 oz and 6 oz. However, this also means that cotton tote bags aren't as durable and should be handled with care.

Canvas Tote Bags are heavier duty than cotton tote bags due to the intricate weaving process used during manufacturing. As a result, canvas tote bags can carry heavier items for long periods of time without worry of the bag ripping or giving out during an errand or day out. Even on canvas material, iron on logos, screen printed designs and heat transfer applications work well with little effort. Due to their sturdy nature, canvas tote bags tend to be heavier, weighting between 8 oz and 24 oz. Most popular canvas weights are 10 oz and 12 oz. 

Although both types of tote bags have their advantages and disadvantages, the perfect type of tote bag for you depends on what you plan on using the tote bag for. Cotton tote bags work well temporarily for light use. However, canvas tote bags are more durable and can withstand continuous wear and tear, accounting for why these bags tend to last longer.

Are tote bags waterproof?

Although many store-bought tote bags will come waterproofed, many DIY projects and cheaper bags will not have a waterproof coating over them. The advantages of waterproof tote bags are limitless and worth paying for if you're debating between the two. After all, a bag that is weather resistant will protect your belongings from water damage. An easy way that you can waterproof your drawstring tote bag is with wax.

Are Canvas Tote Bags ECO friendly?

Canvas tote bags are renowned for being good for the environment due to the material of the fabric being from renewable resources. The bags themselves are biodegradable when it does come time to part with them. The most eco friendly aspect of the bag stems from its reusability, which saves individuals from the use of harmful plastic bags that collect at the bottom of dumps every year.
