The Airlume Difference

Our signature combed and ring-spun cotton.

The wholesale clothing industry was built on low quality, carded open-end [COE] cottons, fabric woven from rough, loosely-wound yarn chock-full of impurities. These COE cottons make for less comfortable, less consistent garments and don't provide an ideal surface for printing. You deserve better.

BELLA+CANVAS believes that you, the creators, deserve the highest quality canvas imaginable, and that quality garments are built at the thread level. That's why we exclusively use a proprietary Airlume Combed and Ring-Spun Cotton to create the softest garments on the market, and the perfect canvas for all of your many expressions.

1. CLEAN COTTON

We comb-out more impurities than standard ring-spun cotton, which provides you and your customers a softer, more comfortable garment.

2. LONG STAPLE COTTON

We exclusively use long staple cotton for a smoother, more tightly-knit fabric with fewer stray fibers to create garments that are perfect for all of your printing needs.

3. ECO-DYED

Our primary dyehouse exclusively uses bluesign® approved dyes, guaranteeing our fabrics do not contain hazardous chemicals or environmentally harmful substances. We create garments that reflect our values so that you can create with garments that reflect yours.
