Plush toys are a popular type of toys that date back to the 19th century. The earliest plush toys were produced in Germany, and these toys were made of natural cotton as filler. Over time, plush toys have been widely spread and popularized around the world, becoming the companionship of many children's childhood. Nowadays, plush toys have developed into various forms, such as cartoon images, animal shapes, etc., and there are more and more types of fillers.

Regular cotton is the most common plush toy filler, which has good warmth and softness. Ordinary cotton is divided into long-length cotton and fine-length cotton, among which long-length cotton has higher quality and relatively expensive prices. Because ordinary cotton is cheap and easy to obtain, it is widely used in the production of plush toys.
2. Colored cotton
Colored cotton is a kind of cotton with natural colors, and its colors include yellow, green, brown, etc. Colored cotton does not need to be dyed during the textile process, so it is environmentally friendly and healthy. Because the colored cotton is relatively single, it is usually used to make plush toys with simple tones.
3. Chemical fiber cotton
Chemical fiber cotton is an artificial fiber that has high strength and wear resistance and is not easy to deform. Since the price of chemical fiber cotton is lower than that of ordinary cotton, it is widely used in the production of plush toys. The warmth and softness of chemical fiber cotton is slightly inferior to ordinary cotton.
4. Down cotton
Down cotton is a cotton-like substance made of down as the raw material. It has good warmth and softness, and has a high fluffyness. Down cotton is mainly used to make high-quality plush toys, and its price is relatively high.
