Sand-washed silk fabric

Sand-washed silk is a type of silk fabric that undergoes a special treatment process. Initially, silk fabric is softened to make it more comfortable, and then it is processed through sand-washing, where a machine polishes the fabric to achieve a smooth and soft surface. This technique enhances the fabric's texture and feel, giving it a unique sand-washed effect. Sand-washed silk has a soft, smooth hand feel, vibrant colors, a subtle sheen, and offers excellent breathability and warmth, making it a high-end textile option.

Key Characteristics of Sand-Washed Silk:

• Elegant Texture

Sand-washed silk has an elegant texture and distinctive pattern, giving off a luxurious, refined appearance. Its fine, soft texture provides comfort and a sense of warmth.

• Good Breathability

This fabric is highly breathable, efficiently releasing moisture and maintaining a dry, comfortable feel. Even in humid conditions, it doesn’t trap heat or feel stuffy.

• Strong Wrinkle Resistance

Thanks to its special wrinkle-resistant treatment, sand-washed silk has excellent resistance to creasing. Compared to regular silk fabrics, it is less prone to wrinkles and maintains a smooth appearance even after prolonged use.

While sand-washed silk has unique advantages, the home textile market often favors silk charmeuse fabric, which has a more traditional silk luster ( silk shiny ). If consumers client matte, sand-wash is best choice.
