Product Description
Designed with high-elastic support and structural contouring at its core, this modern functional fabric utilizes a high-density knitting technique to construct a firm, supportive textile matrix. By incorporating premium spandex, we have significantly enhanced the fabric's compression, wrapping performance, and multi-directional stretch capabilities. When worn, it provides exceptional muscle containment and core support, effectively reducing muscle vibration during intense workouts while delivering a clean, sculpted silhouette with a premium aesthetic. This robust yet flexible construction makes the fabric highly resistant to deformation, ensuring it maintains its structural integrity and tension over extended periods of heavy use. In addition to its high-stretch recovery, the fabric maintains great breathability, allowing moisture to escape. It also features excellent sewability, making it easy to process during garment manufacturing. It serves as an ideal material solution for apparel manufacturers and activewear brands specializing in high-performance compression wear, athletic leggings, and supportive sports bras. For B2B clients looking to elevate their sportswear lines with textiles that blend physical strength and technical refinement, this high-density functional fabric offers the ultimate performance foundation.
Fabric Care
Machine wash cold (30°C / 86°F) on gentle cycle. Use mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners to protect the elastomeric stretch properties of the Spandex.
Do not use chlorine bleach or stain removers containing active oxygen. Chemical bleaching agent residues will irreversibly degrade nylon fibers and ruin elastic recovery.
Iron at low temperature setting (maximum 110°C / 230°F) if necessary. Always place a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to prevent synthetic glazing.
Tumble dry on low heat settings or air dry flat in shade. High temperatures cause fiber shrinkage, color fading, and loss of tensile strength.
Technical FAQ
Since Cofinay owns its knitting mill and dyeing factory – from yarn to finished fabric – we respond much faster than trading-based competitors. You can request samples via the “Contact Us” page on our website or call our sales hotline directly.
- Standard stock fabrics: Free A4‑size samples (shipping fee applies).
- Custom specifications (e.g., specific weight, width, functional finishes): A small sampling fee will be charged based on process complexity, which will be fully refunded on the bulk order.
Samples are typically shipped within 3–5 business days.
Proper care preserves elasticity and functional finishes. We recommend:
- Washing: Hand wash or machine wash in cold water (below 30°C) using a laundry bag on a gentle/sportswear cycle. Avoid washing with rough zippers or heavy garments.
- Detergent: Use a neutral sports detergent. Never use fabric softener (it clogs breathable pores and damages spandex elasticity) or chlorine bleach.
- Drying: Lay flat to air dry in the shade. Do not wring or tumble dry – high heat embrittles spandex and damages coatings.
- Storage: Store completely dry in a cool, dark place, avoiding heavy stacking.
- Stain removal: For oil‑based stains (e.g., sunscreen), pre‑treat with a small amount of mild dish soap before washing.
Absolutely. Thanks to our in‑house dyeing and knitting facilities, we offer flexible customization:
- Custom colors: Minimum 100kg per shade (standard colors). Pantone matching available.
- Functional finishes: Moisture-wicking, UV protection (UPF50+), antibacterial, anti-odor – any combination available.
- Fabric structure: Adjust knit structure (mesh, rib, plain) to modify stretch/breathability.
Simply provide your design or functional requirements, and we will send a sampling proposal within 48 hours. Minimum order quantities start as low as 500 meters per color (300 meters possible for some greige goods).
As a manufacturer with our own mill and dyehouse (not a trader), Cofinay’s key advantages are:
- Quality control: High‑gauge circular knitting machines reduce streaks and spandex breaks; fully automated dye dispensing ensures ΔE < 1.
- Durable elasticity: High‑quality spandex (comparable to Lycra®) with anti‑relaxation heat setting – elasticity retention >92% after 300 repeated stretches.
- Eco‑friendly production: Low‑liquor ratio dyeing technology, OEKO‑TEX® STANDARD 100 certified.
- Fast reorders: Every formula and machine parameter is archived – repeat orders take only 7–10 days with excellent batch‑to‑batch consistency.
