DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Sp.single jersey2
Belonging to the stretch cotton group, Sp.single jersey2 is an elastic, medium-weight cotton-based knitted fabric that combines natural comfort with an elastic fit. The soft feel, good breathability and structure optimised for everyday wear characteristic of the category are paired in this material with shape-retaining properties and a favourable price-to-value ratio.
Composition and structural characteristics
Sp.single jersey2 is a textile made from 95% cotton and 5% elastane (spandex). The dominant proportion of cotton provides the natural feel, skin-friendly properties and good moisture absorption, while the elastane makes the material more elastic. The knitted (jersey) structure characteristic of the stretch cotton category results in slight stretch and comfortable wear.
The 200 g/m² weight represents a medium thickness, making the material ideal for year-round use. The 185 cm extra width allows for economical cutting, especially for larger-sized garments or series production.
Material properties and behaviour
One of the important characteristics of Sp.single jersey2 is its good shape retention, thanks to the elastane content. The material follows the body's contours well and then regains its original shape, so finished garments retain their shape for longer.
The cotton base provides the pleasant, soft feel and adequate breathability, so the material offers particularly comfortable wear. Due to the knitted structure, it does not restrict movement, so it is suitable for both active and everyday use.
Applications
Sp.single jersey2 can be applied versatilely for various apparel purposes. In baby and children's clothing, it is ideal for making bodysuits, undershirts, hats, trousers and other soft textile products. The necks of the bodysuits and the edges of the hats are finished with cotton rib fabric. In adult fashion, it can be used as a base material for T-shirts, tops, summer dresses, tunics and leggings.
For underwear and nightwear, it is also a suitable choice for making skin-friendly underwear, pyjamas and nightgowns. For sports and leisure use, it can also be well applied as a base material for light leisurewear, garments made for yoga or homewear. For cooler weather, its counterpart is brushed cotton fleece, brushed on the inside.
