 | GSM is the metric measurement of the weight of a fabric—it is a critical parameter for any textile product.
Fabric weight is measured in grams per square metre or g/m2 (also abbreviated as GSM). The weight may affect density, thickness and many physical properties of the fabric, such as strength. GSM is accountable for the linear metres and specific use of the fabric. The fabric weight is measured in grams. Typically a cheap T-shirt fabric is approximately 150 g/m2. GSM of fabric helps in determining the consumption, cost and application. In the metric system, the mass per unit area of all types of textiles is expressed in grams per square metre (g/m2). |
