Overview
This polyester-rich poly-cotton stretch twill fabric offers a woven material option for professional workwear requiring flexibility and a relatively moderate fabric weight. Its combination of polyester, cotton and spandex provides an alternative to heavier or cotton-rich workwear fabrics, allowing buyers to compare material composition and weight when selecting fabrics for different garment designs.
The technical specification includes documented tensile strength, tear strength, abrasion resistance and colour fastness results to support material evaluation. WR treatment and reported high-visibility colour testing also make the fabric relevant to selected industrial and high-visibility workwear projects, subject to colourway-specific requirements and finished-garment assessment.
Performance & Standards
This polyester-rich stretch twill fabric has documented mechanical strength, abrasion resistance, colour fastness and water vapour resistance test results. High-visibility colour measurements are also reported for selected testing conditions, supporting technical evaluation for professional workwear applications.
Key Test Results

Testing Notes
Results reflect the conditions recorded in the supplied technical specification. The dimensional stability entry references 5/25 washes without clearly assigning the reported result to a specific wash count. High-visibility colour results require confirmation of applicable colourways and do not establish finished-garment certification. Full test documentation and application-specific suitability should be confirmed before final material approval.
Applications
Applications & Suitability
Industrial Work Trousers
A potential fabric option for work trousers requiring a two-way stretch twill construction. Its polyester-rich composition and 245 gsm weight provide a material alternative for garment designs where flexibility and fabric weight are important selection considerations.
Work Jackets
Suitable for evaluation in professional work jacket designs requiring a woven stretch fabric. The reported tensile strength, tear strength and abrasion resistance results provide technical reference points for assessing material suitability.
Coveralls and Workwear Sets
Can be considered for coordinated workwear garments, including coveralls and matching jacket-and-trouser sets. Fabric selection should account for garment construction, intended working conditions and finished-product requirements.
High-Visibility Workwear
A potential option for selected high-visibility garment designs. The technical specification reports conformity in high-visibility colour measurements under specified test conditions. Applicable colourways and finished-garment compliance requirements must be verified before use.
Selection Considerations
This fabric is intended for evaluation in professional workwear projects where material composition, stretch construction, fabric weight and documented test performance are relevant selection factors. WR treatment should not be interpreted as a verified waterproof rating. Final suitability depends on garment design, application conditions and any applicable end-product testing or certification requirements.
