Technical Focus: Single Jersey Fabric Engineering

Exploring the structural properties, raw material blends, and performance metrics of single jersey knits.

Mechanical Knitting Properties

Single jersey is a flat, weft-knit structure produced with a single bed of latch needles. It features distinct flat V-stitches on the face (technical face) and semi-circular loops on the back (technical back). This orientation provides excellent crosswise stretch and lightweight breathability, making it the premier fabric choice for high-volume basic T-shirts and active sportswear.

Fiber Blending Technologies

To align with diverse global procurement demands, we blend natural combed cotton fibers with functional synthetics. Standard options include 100% Combed Cotton (ne 26s to 40s), Cotton-Polyester blends (CVC and TC ratios), and tri-blends combining rayon/modal with spandex to improve elasticity, drape, and shape retention across repeat washing cycles.

Finishing & Fabric Upgrades

We implement advanced bio-polishing (enzyme washing) to eliminate surface fuzz and prevent pilling. Silicone-softening chemical treatments enhance hand-feel, while mercerization processes alter cotton's crystalline structure to boost luster, dimensional stability, and dye affinity, meeting premium global standards.

Industrial OEM & ODM Infrastructure
