82 Polyamide 18 Elastane Fabric | Certified & Vertical

Our 82 Polyamide 18 Elastane fabric is a premium stretch knit designed for garments that demand comfort, recovery, and a smooth, second-skin feel. The 82 percent polyamide content delivers strength, softness, and vibrant color uptake, while the 18 percent elastane provides outstanding four-way stretch and shape retention. This fabric is ideal for activewear, leggings, swimwear, sports bras, shapewear, and fashion apparel. Available in multiple weights, finishes, and prints, and customizable to your specifications.

82 Polyamide 18 Elastane is a carefully balanced blend that has become a benchmark in stretch apparel. Polyamide, often called nylon, contributes tensile strength, abrasion resistance, and a luxurious smooth surface that takes dye deeply for rich, long-lasting colors. Elastane, known for its exceptional elasticity, allows the fabric to stretch significantly and return to its original shape. At an 82/18 ratio, the fabric achieves a performance profile that feels supportive yet unrestrictive, making it suitable for garments worn close to the body. The manufacturing process is equally important. In our Dongguan facility, knitting parameters are tuned to protect elastane fibers from over-stretching, while dyeing and finishing temperatures are controlled to preserve elasticity. Stenter setting stabilizes the fabric so that garments maintain their fit after washing. For buyers, understanding these technical details matters because they directly affect garment quality, customer satisfaction, and return rates. Our ERP-driven production system tracks every batch, ensuring that the 82 Polyamide 18 Elastane fabric you approve in sampling matches the bulk delivery. This combination of material science and disciplined manufacturing is what allows global brands to rely on 82 polyamide 18 elastane for consistent, high-performance products season after season.
