Pima cotton, also called extra long staple (ELS), is a type of cotton grown primarily in Peru, the southwestern United States and Australia. It is considered to be one of the superior blends of cotton and is extremely durable and absorbent.

Each fibre is a single elongated cell that is flat twisted and ribbon like with a wide inner hollow (lumen).1  90% cellulose, 6% moisture and the remainder fats and impurities.he fiber most often is spun into yarn or thread and used to make a soft, breathable textile, which is the most widely used natural-fiber cloth in clothing today. The English name derives from the Arabic (al) qutn ÙÙØ·ÙÙ, which began to be used circa 1400. Each cotton fiber is composed of concentric layers.
