NAVY BLUE PEACHED FABRIC

KF000519

The Navy Blue Peached Fabric is a performance-oriented textile engineered through a specialized mechanical brushing process to achieve a soft, suede-like surface texture. Composed of 89% Cationic Polyester and 11% Spandex, this material is designed to provide multidirectional elasticity while maintaining color depth and saturation. The 200 GSM weight offers a substantial hand-feel suitable for year-round garment production, balancing thermal retention with breathability. By utilizing cationic yarns, the fabric achieves a distinct two-tone heather effect and enhanced dye fastness, making it a reliable substrate for technical apparel manufacturers focused on activewear and lifestyle collections.

Technical Specifications

Core Material Advantages

• Moisture Management: The cationic polyester fibers facilitate capillary action, moving moisture away from the skin to the fabric surface for evaporation.
• Tensile Recovery: An 11% Spandex ratio ensures the fabric retains its original dimensions after repeated stretching, preventing garment deformation at the elbows or knees.
• Tactile Comfort: The peached finish reduces friction between the garment and the skin, minimizing irritation during high-intensity physical activity.
• Structural Stability: At 200 GSM, the fabric provides interlock-level opacity, ensuring it remains non-see-through during extension.

Industrial Application Scenarios

Activewear and Performance Gear

Due to its four-way stretch properties, this fabric is utilized in the production of yoga leggings, compression tops, and athletic training apparel. The peached surface provides a "second-skin" feel necessary for long-duration workouts.

Casual and Athleisure Wear

The matte finish and navy blue aesthetic make it suitable for casual wear applications, including lightweight hoodies, joggers, and base layers that require a balance of technical performance and everyday comfort.

Handling and Care Guidelines

Storage and Inventory Management

• Store rolls horizontally to prevent pressure marks or distortion of the knit structure.
• Maintain a dry, shaded environment; prolonged exposure to direct UV light may affect the cationic dye stability over time.
• Ensure first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory rotation to monitor batch consistency.

Usage and Processing Notes

• Cutting: Allow the fabric to relax for 24 hours after unrolling before die-cutting to ensure dimensional accuracy.
• Sewing: Use ball-point needles and four-thread overlock stitching to accommodate the spandex content and prevent fiber breakage.
• Washing: Cold water wash is recommended to preserve the peached texture and prevent pilling. Avoid industrial softeners which may coat the performance fibers.
