Tricot Polyester Spandex 4-Way Stretch Swimwear Fabric

Product Description

Tricot polyester spandex fabric is a warp-knit stretch fabric supplied to swimwear, activewear, and dancewear manufacturers as well as fabric wholesalers. Its 4-way stretch and smooth hand feel make it a practical base for close-fitting garments that need to move with the body while holding their shape.

MH supplies this fabric with customizable construction so buyers can align it with their own production lines. Polyester and spandex are combined in a tricot warp knit, and blend ratios, weight, and finish can be adjusted to match different performance targets across swim and sport programs.

For sourcing, the fabric is typically knit at 150–160cm width in a range of 150–220 GSM, with polyester/spandex blends around 80/20 or 90/10. Colors are dyed-to-order, and custom specifications are available for bulk orders. It ships in standard roll export packaging.

Features

• 4-way stretch construction — flexes in every direction so garments recover their shape after repeated wear and washing.
• Warp-knit tricot base — gives a stable, run-resistant surface that cuts and sews cleanly for high-volume garment lines.
• Soft smooth hand feel — sits comfortably against the skin, suiting swimwear and body-contact activewear.
• Chlorine-resistant finish — helps color and elasticity hold up through pool exposure, extending garment life for end users.
• Customizable weight — lighter and heavier GSM options let buyers tune coverage and support per style.
