Main Features
Composition
55% Linen: Linen is known for its natural strength, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties. The linen content in this fabric enhances its breathability, keeping the wearer cool and comfortable in warm climates. Linen also adds a slightly textured look and a durable finish, making it perfect for year-round wear. Additionally, linen is an eco-friendly fiber, as it is made from flax, a renewable resource.
45% Recycled Polyester: Recycled polyester is made from post-consumer plastic bottles or other recycled polyester fibers, reducing waste and conserving resources. It adds strength, durability, and resistance to shrinking and fading. Recycled polyester also helps improve the fabric’s moisture-wicking properties, making it ideal for activewear and garments that need to withstand frequent washing and use.
Fabric Type
Jersey Knit: The fabric is knitted using a jersey construction, resulting in a soft, stretchy, and comfortable fabric. The jersey knit provides flexibility, allowing for ease of movement while maintaining a smooth, clean appearance. This makes the fabric perfect for casualwear and garments that require a bit of stretch and breathability.
Width
160 cm: The fabric has a width of 160 cm, making it suitable for a variety of garment designs. The width is ideal for larger patterns, allowing for efficient pattern cutting and minimizing fabric waste. This makes it a practical and cost-effective fabric for production.
Weight
210 g/㎡: This fabric weighs 210 g/㎡, providing a medium weight that is perfect for everyday wear. It offers enough structure to maintain durability and shape, while still being light enough to be breathable and comfortable. The weight makes it ideal for year-round use, creating garments that can be worn in both warmer and cooler seasons.
Yarn Count
16S: The 16S yarn count indicates a thicker yarn used in the fabric’s construction. This results in a more textured finish and a stronger fabric, ensuring durability and long-lasting performance. The thicker yarn adds a substantial feel to the fabric without making it too heavy.
Product Advantages
Sustainable & Eco-Friendly: The combination of linen and recycled polyester makes this fabric an eco-conscious choice. Linen is a biodegradable, renewable fiber, while recycled polyester helps reduce plastic waste and the need for virgin polyester. This fabric is perfect for consumers looking for sustainable, environmentally responsible fabrics.
Soft & Comfortable: The linen and recycled polyester blend provides a soft feel with just the right amount of texture. The jersey knit construction adds flexibility, making it ideal for garments worn close to the skin, such as t-shirts, dresses, and casual tops.
Breathable & Moisture-Wicking: Linen is naturally breathable and moisture-wicking, helping to keep the wearer cool and dry. The recycled polyester content enhances the fabric’s moisture-wicking abilities, making it a great choice for activewear and casual clothing in warmer weather.
Durable & Long-Lasting: The combination of linen and recycled polyester ensures that the fabric is both durable and resistant to wear and tear. It retains its structure and appearance over time, even with frequent washing, making it ideal for everyday garments.
Eco-Friendly: By using recycled polyester, this fabric helps reduce waste and conserve resources, offering a sustainable option for consumers who care about the environment. Linen is also a sustainable fiber that requires fewer pesticides and water compared to other crops.
Care Instructions
Machine Washable: This fabric can be machine washed in cold or lukewarm water to preserve its texture and prevent shrinkage. Wash on a gentle cycle to maintain the fabric's integrity.
Drying: It is recommended to air dry the fabric to preserve its shape and avoid shrinkage. If tumble drying, use a low heat setting to prevent damaging the fibers and to maintain the fabric’s elasticity.
Ironing: Iron on low to medium heat if necessary. The fabric may wrinkle due to the linen content, but ironing with steam will help restore its smooth appearance without applying too much heat.
Avoid Bleach: To maintain the fabric’s color and integrity, avoid using bleach. Use a mild, eco-friendly detergent to help preserve the fabric's quality and color.

Common Issues
Shrinkage: Slight shrinkage may occur after the first wash. To minimize this, wash in cold water and air dry or tumble dry on low heat.
Pilling: As with most fabrics, pilling can occur with regular wear, especially in high-friction areas. Using a fabric shaver or sweater comb can help maintain the fabric’s smooth appearance.
Wrinkling: Linen fabrics tend to wrinkle naturally, so light ironing or steaming is recommended to restore the fabric's smoothness and prevent creases from setting in.
