DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Rib spandex
Belonging to the ribbing base materials, Rib spandex is a lightweight, ribbed-structure, non-circular-knitted textile, used primarily for bordering and finishing thinner apparel elements. Thanks to its 100% cotton composition, it provides a natural feel and comfortable wear, especially where there is direct skin contact.
Composition and structural characteristics
Rib spandex is a knitted material made from 100% cotton, with soft, breathable and skin-friendly properties. The 215 g/m² textile falls into the lighter category, making it ideal for thinner garments. The open, non-circular-knitted design allows for flexible cutting and simpler processing, especially for smaller-series or custom products. The ribbed structure provides basic elasticity and an aesthetic fit.
Applications
Rib spandex is primarily used for light apparel products. For T-shirts and tops, it is ideal for forming neckbands and thinner cuffs, where a clean appearance and comfortable fit are important.
For baby and children's clothing, it is an excellent choice for bordering bodysuits, undershirts and baby hats, where softness and a natural base material are especially important. For nightwear, it is used for finishing pyjamas and nightgowns, while for underwear it is also suitable for forming comfort bands and elastic edges. For the same details, cotton rib is often used as well.
