Properties of burlap
Burlap is a coarse fabric made from jute, linen or hemp yarn. This fabric got its name due to its original purpose – it is used to make bags and is also used for various technical needs. Burlap is sometimes called row or canvas, even though they are slightly different things.
The main property of this material is its high strength, as well as a hard and rough weave surface.
