Composition:
Polyamide (Nylon): This is a synthetic polymer commonly known as Nylon. It is known for its strength, durability, and abrasion resistance. Polyamide fabrics are lightweight, quick-drying, and have excellent flexibility.
Elastane (Spandex): Elastane, known as spandex or Lycra, is a stretchy synthetic fiber that provides exceptional elasticity. It allows fabrics to stretch significantly and then recover their original shape, providing comfort and freedom of movement.
Stretch and Recovery:
The inclusion of elastane in the fabric composition ensures excellent stretch and recovery properties. This makes the fabric well-suited for sportswear, swimwear, and other applications where flexibility and shape retention are essential.
Comfort and Fit:
Carvico polyamide elastane fabrics are designed to offer a high level of comfort and a precise fit. The stretchiness of the fabric allows it to conform to the body's movements, providing a snug and comfortable fit.
Applications:
Carvico polyamide elastane fabrics are commonly used in the production of swimwear, activewear, and other performance-oriented apparel. The combination of polyamide's durability and elastane's stretch makes it ideal for applications where both resilience and flexibility are crucial.
Quick-Drying:
Polyamide is known for its quick-drying properties, making it suitable for swimwear and activewear that may be exposed to moisture. This feature is particularly beneficial for comfort during water-based activities.
Resistance to Wear and Tear:
The polyamide component contributes to the fabric's resistance to wear and tear. This makes Carvico polyamide elastane fabrics durable and capable of withstanding the rigors of regular use and various activities.
Washing your Polyamide Elastane fabric (garment) correctly is crucial to preserving their quality and longevity:
- Separate Colors: Like with any clothing, separate your colors to prevent color bleeding. Wash dark and light colors separately, especially for the first few washes.
- Use a Gentle Cycle: Opt for a gentle or delicate cycle on your washing machine. The gentle cycle reduces the risk of excessive stretching and damage to the fabric.
- Use Cold Water: Cold water is the safest option for nylon spandex. It helps maintain the fabric's elasticity and prevents potential damage from hot water.
- Mild Detergent: Use a mild detergent designed for delicate fabrics. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can weaken the spandex fibers.
- Air Dry When Possible: The best way to dry nylon spandex is to air dry it. Lay your garments flat on a clean towel, reshaping them to their original form if needed. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric, as this can damage the spandex fibers.
- Low Heat in Dryer: If you must use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting (often labeled as "delicate" or "low"). High heat can weaken spandex over time. Use dryer balls or clean tennis balls to prevent tangling and minimize wrinkles.
- Shorter Dry Times: Keep drying times short to prevent overexposure to heat. Check the garments regularly, and remove them as soon as they are dry.
Please be aware that due to monitor resolution, lighting, photo processing software, and other factors it is almost impossible to represent color with 100% accuracy. If you are unsure of the color or quality of this fabric, please purchase a sample before you buy to avoid disappointment.
