What is ranfors?
Ranfors (ranforce) - modern, more often - 100 percent natural, made mainly from cotton, plain weave material, which has increased strength and durability. Ranfors is sometimes called advanced calico. It was created not so long ago in Turkey, originally this word was not the name of the fabric, but the name of the brand, who came up with a way to make fabric, related to calico, but with improved qualities. Sometimes you can find other names for this material: maxifors, cottonforces, but ranfors is the most common.
For the production of ranfors, mainly long cotton fibers are used, and the threads are twisted strongly. The density of weaving in the rancor fabric is greater than in the calico fabric.

Ranfors is usually made from 100 percent cotton, but some manufacturers may add polyester to the material (up to 20%). Synthetic fibers give the fabric even greater strength and extend its life, but such a ranfors may not be as comfortable to use as fully cotton.and its hygienic properties may be slightly reduced. If these parameters are important to you, you should clarify the composition of the material when purchasing products or fabrics.
