  1. Exploring Polyester Thread: Varieties, Differences, and Where to Use Them While all polyester threads derive from the same base material, their finishes and treatments differ, offering unique aesthetic qualities and specific applications. At Coats, you can find a range of polyester threads suited for tasks—from garment sewing to producing leather goods, footwear, and more. Understanding these differences is key to selecting the most suitable polyester thread for your needs. Let's delve into some of the main types: Trilobal polyester threads for embroidery and quilting Trilobal polyester thread is ideal for machine embroidery and quilting, thanks to its subtle shine, which also makes it suitable for appliqué and outlining. Coats Sylko is an excellent option. It provides smooth operation, durability, and superior lustre even at high sewing speeds. It is particularly useful for creating decorative seams and logos on accessories and clothing that undergo frequent washing or wear. Coats offers other variants of Sylko, each with unique features. For instance, Sylko AWF is an environmentally friendly anti-wicking trilobal polyester thread, and Sylko Eco-B is made from 100% recycled material with a CiCLO additive to reduce synthetic fibre pollution in oceans and landfills. Monofilament polyester threads for invisible stitching Monofilament polyester thread is often chosen by clothing manufacturers for its near-invisibility. Available in smoke, clear, or semi-translucent forms, it blends seamlessly into fabric. This makes it an excellent choice for couching, quilting, or appliqué. CoatsKnit Mono—with its unique cross-sectional monofilament design—offers moisture management, breathability, and excellent dyeing properties for a range of fabrics in apparel, accessories, and footwear. Cotton-wrapped polyester threads for ease and aesthetics

  2. Cotton-wrapped polyester thread combines the strength and easy sewing of polyester with the aesthetic appeal of cotton. It has a polyester core and a cotton fibre wrap, making it versatile for general sewing and quilting, especially on midarm and longarm machines. Coats Dual Duty thread, with its natural long-staple cotton cover and strong filament core, provides resistance against needle heat and ensures superior sewing performance. Staple-spun polyester threads for general use Coats' high-quality staple-spun Astra polyester thread is designed as an all-purpose solution that enhances productivity and reduces machine downtime. Astra threads come in different variants tailored for specific purposes, such as Astra RD for children’s nightwear and EcoVerde Rugged for sewing bleach-fast denim. For detailed information about each type of polyester thread and to find the best fit for your business, connect with the expert team at Coats. They can guide you in choosing the right polyester thread for your specific applications, ensuring you achieve the best results in your sewing projects.
