IWASAKI handles interlinings, focusing on quilt batting, as well as shoulder pads, fusible stay tape, and lining. The materials are mainly polyester, with also blended fibers, nylon, and cotton. Quilt batting is chosen for areas where you want to add warmth, loft, or a three-dimensional feel, while shoulder pads are selected when you want to shape the shoulder line and silhouette.
Set in pads are suitable when you want to shape the shoulder point and armhole line of a set-in sleeve. Customer reviews mention ease of use with an iron for fusible tape, its usefulness for areas that should not be stretched, and its thin construction.

QCan interfacing be shipped rolled on a tube?
Basically, orders of 5 m or more will be shipped wound on a tube.
QHow should I choose interfacing?
The appropriate interlining varies depending on the face fabric material, thickness, and area of use, so we cannot give a single answer.
Please contact us via
inquiries with the face fabric material, area of use (neckline, body, etc.), and desired hand feel.
If you can provide the face fabric, we can perform an adhesion test. Please request this from
Interlining Adhesion Test.
By performing an adhesion test, you can find out in advance things like adhesive strength and changes in appearance.
QWhat is the difference between the whites such as KW, OW, W, and Y in fusible interlining colors?
The color notation varies by product number, but KW and W are fluorescent white, and Y and OW are off-white.
Fluorescent white is a whiter, purer white.
QWhat kind of problem is bubbling?
A condition where fine air bubbles appear to be trapped between the outer fabric and interlining. It occurs because the compatibility between the fabric and interlining is poor. It may be resolved by choosing an interlining with vertical and horizontal stretch.
QWhat kind of problem is fading?
It is when the uneven texture of the resin pellets becomes clearly visible on the surface of the outer textile. The solution is to choose interfacing with smaller resin dots.

It was great because it can be easily fused with an iron at the same width, and it is less likely to wrinkle during sewing.
I think it will be very useful from now on.
