Product Description
Sandwich mesh fabric, also known as 3D spacer mesh fabric, is widely used in bags and backpacks where breathability, cushioning and support are required. It is commonly applied to backpack back panels, shoulder straps, laptop bag padding, sports bags, outdoor bags and other padded bag parts.
Compared with ordinary mesh fabric, sandwich mesh has a three-dimensional structure. The top and bottom mesh layers are connected by spacer yarns, helping improve air flow, thickness, resilience and comfort. This makes it a practical material for bag manufacturers who need breathable and supportive padding solutions.
MH supplies sandwich mesh fabric in different thicknesses, colors, weights and widths for bulk bag production. Buyers can choose suitable specifications according to bag type, padding requirement.

Comfort + Ventilation
The breathable structure helps reduce stuffiness on backpack back panels and shoulder straps, while the padded thickness helps improve carrying comfort.
Practical for Manufacturing
Sandwich mesh can be cut and sewn into different padded bag parts. It can be combined with Oxford fabric, lining fabric, webbing, binding tape and other bag accessories.
