Polyester

What is Polyester Fabric?

Polyester, often referred to as PET (polyethylene terephthalate), is a synthetic fiber that has been widely used in the textile industry since the 1950s. Polyester fibers are primarily produced from dyed and melted petroleum polymers. Due to its low cost, high strength, and durability, polyester fabric is favored by many fabric manufacturers and accounts for more than half of the global fiber market. Polyester fibers are commonly blended with spandex to knit fabrics and can also be treated to offer waterproof, UV-resistant, and mildew-resistant properties.

Why is Polyester Fabric Suitable for Sportswear?

Polyester fabric is a popular choice for manufacturing sportswear due to its excellent moisture-wicking properties, durability, and other advantageous characteristics. Here’s why stretch polyester fabric is ideal for sportswear:

  • Moisture-Wicking Properties:Textured polyester fabric, made from hollow fibers, excels at wicking moisture away from the body. It efficiently draws sweat to the fabric's surface, where it evaporates quickly, keeping wearers dry and comfortable during intense physical activity.
  • Durability: JIOVANCE polyester fabricretains its shape and quality even after frequent washing. It withstands wear and tear and resists fading, making it ideal for high-impact sports and strenuous exercise.
  • Lightweight:Polyester fabric is known for being lightweight, which significantly enhances athletic performance by reducing the burden on the body. This light fabric made of polyester allows wearers to move freely and perform at their best, without feeling restricted or weighed down by their clothing, even during the most intense physical activities.
  • Wrinkle-resistant:The polyester fabric produced by JIOVANCE is easy-care and requires minimal ironing. This makes the knitted polyester fabric a practical choice for those with busy schedules, as it helps maintain a neat appearance with little effort.
  • Breathability:Knitted polyester fabric is specifically designed to be breathable, allowing for better air circulation. This helps regulate body temperature, ensuring that wearers stay comfortable and cool during exercise, even in more intense conditions.

What Innovations Has JIOVANCE Made on the Polyester Fabric

JIOVANCE has innovatively combined original polyester fabric with spandex by carefully adjusting the ratio of these two high-performance materials. This allows us to tailor our polyester fabrics to meet various needs, ensuring that our clients have access to the best polyester fabric materials.

  • Appearance:The blend of polyester and spandex enhances the fabric’s gloss, making colors brighter and more vibrant, significantly boosting the polyester fabric’s aesthetic appeal. JIOVANCE includes a color sample with every order to ensure accurate color representation.
  • Comfort: The addition of spandex fibers makes polyester fabricsofter, more flexible, and comfortable to wear. The elasticity of spandex allows the fabric to recover its shape after frequent stretching. JIOVANCE uses the finest materials awarded by OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certification to manufacture its polyester blends.
  • ShapeRetention: Polyester-spandex blends maintain their shape exceptionally well, reducing the risk of distortion and shrinkage. These fabrics fit the body better, providing superior texture. JIOVANCE's collaboration with leading brands and their trust in our products further attest to our quality.
  • Versatility: The combinationof polyester and spandex by JIOVANCE enhances the fabric’s versatility, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Whether for activewear, casual wear, or specialized garments, this blend of polyester fabric offers the right balance of stretch, durability, and comfort. This adaptability ensures that the polyester fabric can meet the diverse needs of our clients, from everyday clothing to high-performance sportswear.
  • Eco-friendly Material:Traditional polyester fabric production has a negative impact on the environment, as polyester is derived from petroleum. The refining process of crude oil into petrochemical fuels releases toxins that can harm water sources and wildlife. At JIOVANCE, we are committed to sustainable development. Therefore, we use yarns incorporating CICLO technology, and all our polyester fabrics and manufacturing processes are in conformity with the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) - V4.0.
