Are you looking for customized straw hats? Pechoter is a company that manufactures the best quality straw hats at wholesale prices. A straw hat makes the perfect complement to the sunscreen protecting the eyes and face and UV-filtering sunglasses. It also looks great when worn at the beach.
At our factory, we weave straw hats with some of the best quality straws, like toquilla straw, Toyo, paper braids, and natural seagrass. These hats are a practical and timeless fashionable wardrobe staple for everyday wear. They’re worn by both men and women and come in different styles.
Straw Hats Manufacture
Manufacturing straw hats is a labor-intensive and time-consuming activity. Weaving and plaiting straw, the basis of manufacturing straw hats, is a common practice and manila hemp is the primary material in most straw hats.
There are different designs of weaving straw:
Capeline
This design has a brim and crown and is ideal for large-brimmed straw hats.
Cone
As the name suggests, this is a conical-designed hat with a small brim or no brim at all.
Braid
Also referred to as the Swiss braid or strip straw, this design involves plaiting the straw into a continuous length. It’s then sewn while slightly overlapping, beginning from the center and working to achieve the desired diameter.
Parasisal
This high-quality, natural straw from sisal comes in grades one to five, and we can bleach or dye it. It’s typically used for more expensive straw hats. It has a delicate texture, takes dye well, and is resilient to wear. It’s made using a two-over-two weave.
Sisal
It uses one-over-one weaving and is a little coarser and less popular than parasisal.
Visca
Visca is a man-made straw with its origin in Japan and is often used in mass-producing straw hats because it’s easily dyed and blocked. It’s similar to parasisal but coarser.
Panama
It’s resilient to crushing and makes men’s hats. It can be dyed, but it usually has a bleached finish.
Raffia
Raffia is a casual straw used to make budget hats, such as beach hats.
Toyo
Toyo has a plastic glaze finish made from colorful rice paper yarn. Hats made from Toyo have a medium to low price range, making the wearers look lovely on a budget.
The A to Z of Crafting a Unique Straw Hat – Stages of Production
What does it take to design and produce a unique straw hat? Straw hats are a Pechoter specialty, and our manufacturing process runs through different steps, spread in various manufacturing departments.
First, we must choose a straw material like Sinamay, Wheat Braid, Raffia Straw, or Seagrass.
Step 1: Weaving the Straw
Our experienced production team weaves the straw material using a suitable machine and then shapes using the blocking machine. Paper straw materials also use machines.
Step 2: Sorting
Once done with the weaving, the straw hats are separated according to their different sizes and trimmed to make a complete hat.
Step 3: Sewing in a Plastic Cord
Our production team then sews a plastic cord on the hat’s edge. These cords keep the brim firmly in shape.
Step 4: Adding Crown Bands (If Applicable)
If you’re purchasing your straw hats from Pechoter, there’s an option to customize the hats according to client needs. The customization includes adding crown bands stitched and secured on the hats using glue.
Step 5: Removal of Excess Stitching and Quality Check
The production team removes excess stitching from the hats to leave a neat appearance at this stage. We also confirm that the product meets the desired quality standards.
Step 6: Tags
Here, we add the client’s logo and other branding material, such as swing tags, price tickets, hook tags, etc., to the hats.
Step 7: Quality Check
Before we pack the straw hats for distribution, we perform a quality check again to ensure we only deliver the best to our clients.
