How to Choose Cordon Ribbons, Tapes, and Cords

Cordon handles round cords, flat cords, cords, round elastic bands, elastic webbing, glitter cord, and tapes. Materials such as polyester, cotton, acrylic, and nylon can be selected to suit the applications and desired finish.

For garment drawstrings, decoration, and bag straps, round cords with a cross-section close to circular are suitable. Flat cords are suitable for wide drawcords, tie cords, and bag handles. Polyester is suitable when you prioritize strength, dimensional stability, and quick-drying properties. Cotton is suitable when you want absorbency and a soft feel against the skin. Acrylic is suitable when you want to take advantage of lightness, warmth retention, and color development. Nylon is suitable when you want lightness, strength, and abrasion resistance.

This introduction was written by AI based on product data, reviews and the ApparelX Wiki.

Fコード(M) Polyester Cord 8.2 Mm ›
Supplier's PickMay 21, 2026
Natural Material Cord with Rustic Craft Appeal
The round-knit cord made from kenaf has the natural look and light texture that only a natural material can offer, making it ideal for partial use in outdoor wear and craft-style items. Its rough, fuzzy texture also makes it a perfect match for natural items that incorporate sustainable elements. Although it is thin, it still has the presence of a cord, so personally I think it has a texture that could also be used as a substitute for the Kongo-braid cord on a duffle coat.
KNF3 Natural Material Cord PART2 Kenaf 3 Round Cord 5.3mm ›
Supplier's PickJan 22, 2026
Endless uses
Its natural feel, unique to natural materials, is appealing.
Because it is twisted thread, it has a firm firmness and resilience.
It can be used for a variety of purposes, such as product tags and gift wrapping.
It is also recommended as string or decoration for bundling dried flowers, and for the trendy dried swags of today!!

Frequently asked questions

QIs it possible to have tape or cord cut one by one to the specified length?
Yes, that is possible. Please select either scissor cutting or heat cutting from the options on each product page and enter the quantity.
Please write your desired length in the notes section at that time.
Since cutting always results in some cutting loss, if the number of cuts is large, it may not be possible to cut all of them from the number of rolls you ordered.
In that case, our order staff will contact you to confirm whether to cut as much as possible from the number of rolls ordered or to add more quantity.
QIs it possible to specify an angled cut edge for heat cutting?
Angled cutting is possible, but since it is done by hand, there may be a deviation of a few degrees.
Please specify 45° diagonally, etc. when placing your order.
QWhat do 7×7 mm and 9×9 mm mean in the width notation for binder tape and knit tape?
This width specification has a groove in the center and is used by sandwiching textile, etc.
In the case of 7×7 mm, it becomes 7 mm when folded in half.
QCan tassel finishing be applied to cords?
Tassel finishing is possible using cords. It can be done simply by untying the cord, or by attaching a separate thin cord to the cord end. Since this is manual processing, a separate quote is required. Please contact us via the support page for details.


・Product number
・An image of the desired look, or an image showing the length, etc., if handwritten
・Planned quantity
QWhat materials can be heat cut?
For synthetic fibers (polyester, nylon, acrylic, polypropylene, etc.), heat cutting is possible.
For natural fibers (cotton, linen, silk, etc.), heat cutting cannot be used because they will burn or char, so only scissors cutting is possible.
Even with synthetic fibers, extra-thick twist cord may not fuse properly, so please be careful.
