The Three “S”s of TEXBRID

01 STRETCH TEXBRID vs. ordinary polyester fabric

More stretchable than regular fabric!

Offers exceptional elongation recovery capabilities with less stress than ordinary yarn!

Based on research by the Research Laboratory Division of Unitika Garment Technology Co., Ltd.

Stretches in accordance with the user’s body movements due to its spring-like molecular structure. As it offers better elasticity and elongation recovery capabilities compared with regular yarn, this high-performance material fits naturally and comfortably on the body without feeling tight.

02 STRENGTH TEXBRID vs. ordinary polyester fabric

1Does not easily bulge or lose shape, even when bending or stretching!

2Does not easily wear out, even when washed repeatedly!

Based on research by the Research Laboratory Division of Unitika Garment Technology Co., Ltd.

  1. While polyurethane is the more commonly used type of elastic material, TEXBRID is more durable and resistant to deterioration and offers exceptional shape restoration capabilities. TEXBRID is wrinkle-resistant and does not lose shape easily, including in the elbow and knee areas.
  2. Resistant to wear and has been proven to be even more durable than ordinary fabric through pilling tests using abrasive paper

03 SOFT-TOUCH TEXBRID vs. ordinary polyester fabric

As it does not pill easily and offers a soft and light texture, TEXBRID caters to a wide range of product designs.

(Based on pilling tests)

Pilling is a state in which fibers on the surface of textiles and knitted fabrics become fluffy due to friction and other factors, and these fluffs get tangled together to form small ball-like clumps (pills and hairballs).
