What is cotton canvas, and how is it different from duck?

Canvas is a plain-woven, heavy-duty cotton fabric — and the term gets used interchangeably with "duck" in casual conversation, but the two aren't identical. Canvas typically runs single-ply yarns through a straightforward plain weave, giving it a slightly softer, less rigid hand than true duck at a comparable weight, though the distinction narrows as GSM increases.

Canvas spans a wide practical GSM band: lighter constructions suit tote bags, aprons and accessories; heavier constructions carry industrial covers, upholstery bases and load-bearing applications. It can be supplied greige for buyers handling their own dyeing or printing, RFD for prepared downstream processing, or pre-dyed to a shade reference.
