Premium Cotton Yarn · Made in Pakistan
Gassed mercerized yarn by Abtex International — premium 100% cotton in 6 multi-ply counts, combed & carded, Raw & Dyed. High lustre, superior strength, deep colour. Packed in cones. Exporting to 35+ countries.
Gassed mercerized yarn from Abtex International is a premium 100% cotton yarn engineered for high-end knitting and weaving applications. Our gassed mercerized yarn combines gas singeing — which removes surface fibres for a smooth, lint-free finish — with mercerizing under caustic soda and tension, delivering exceptional luster, tensile strength, and dye vibrancy. Available in both combed and carded constructions, our gassed mercerized yarn is supplied in 6 standard multi-ply counts: NE 5/3, NE 8/3, NE 8/5, NE 12/3, NE 16/3, and NE 6/4. All packing is on cones for seamless integration with high-speed machines. We also supply dyed yarns and other specialty cotton yarns for diverse textile applications across 35+ countries.
Two core yarn types — Combed and Carded — each available in Raw (grey) and Dyed finishes, all packed in cones for trouble-free machine feeding.
Short fibres removed before spinning — then gassed over an open flame and mercerized for outstanding lustre, strength, and dye uptake. The premium choice for high-end end-uses.
Cost-effective carded cotton — gassed for a smooth surface and mercerized for improved strength and sheen. Consistent quality at an economical price point for volume orders.
Mercerizing opens the fibre structure before dyeing — enabling deeper colour penetration, brighter shades, and superior wash fastness. PANTONE shades matched as per customer requirement.
The gassing + mercerizing process delivers properties no standard yarn can match.
Mercerization restructures cotton fibres to reflect light uniformly — delivering a silk-like gloss impossible to achieve with regular yarn.
Caustic soda treatment under tension increases yarn strength by up to 25%, reducing end-breakages during weaving and knitting.
Mercerized cotton absorbs dye more readily — producing vivid, even shades with excellent wash and light fastness tested to ISO 105.
Gassing burns off protruding surface fibres, creating a smooth, clean yarn that resists pilling in the finished fabric.
Supplied in cones for trouble-free feeding into circular knitting, flat-bed, and weaving machines. Carton and pallet packing for export.
Lab dip approval within 5 working days; bulk production dispatched in 4–6 weeks of shade sign-off. Reliable delivery to mills worldwide.
A 6-stage controlled process delivering lustre, strength, and consistency in every cone we ship.
