Cotton remains the most widely used raw material in the buckrams distinguished for their quality and  toughness. Specially designed fabrication processes and various techniques of weaving cotton have been developed, resulting in improved buckram quality. The word Cotton, is a paraphrase of the ancient Arabic word Qutun that means "conquer". It constitutes spinning the fibrous material that is extracted from the cotton plant. It is discovered as a raw material during the expedition of Alexander the Great in India.
