Gauze originated as a fine, handwoven fabric, valued for its delicate transparency and softness. Historically, it was widely used in medical fields for bandages and surgical dressings due to its breathability and sterilization compatibility. Over time, gauze found its way into fashion and home textiles, appreciated for its aesthetic lightness and versatility.
Today, gauze remains indispensable in both the healthcare and fashion industries. From delicate baby clothes to functional surgical uses, its adaptability and timeless appeal continue to make it a fabric of choice for a wide range of applications.
Gauze is crafted using a balanced plain weave with interweaving pairs of warp yarns looped over the weft. This method creates its characteristic open mesh and lightweight feel. It is often made from fibers like silk, wool, or rayon, depending on the intended use.
