Tulle

Named after the French city Tulle, it is a widely open see-through yet very stable netting. This rarefied netting made of diamond openings is solid, resistant and long-lasting. Tulle can be useful for several applications:

• Curtainings and mosquito netting
• Womens clothing: lingerie, ruffles and appliqué for garments
• Wedding: wedding gowns and veils, favours, decorations
• Dance: basic element for tutu production
• Decoration: bows and decorations, very popular for floral and confectionary packaging
• Showcase decoration
• Costume: for masquerades and plays
• Industrial production: filters, nets and caps for food processing areas
• Embroideries

According to the different materials that can be used to produce tulle, its features may vary, and its handle  may be soft or stiff. Yarns are generally very fine and twisted. It can be obtained from natural fibres such as  cotton, silk,  and/or man-made fibres like polyester, nylon, lurex.
