Stretch warp knits for businesswear

Obertshausen - Warp knitting machine builder Karl Mayer has developed a new 4-way stretch elastic fabric made from a cotton-like yarn that is targeted at the casual business wear market.
The aim of the project with Chinese man-made fibre manufacturer Shenghong was to combine the advantages of warp knitting technology with the benefits of Cottima-Q Sumitan a cotton-like yarn to produce a fabric that was flexible in all directions and therefore comfortable for any occasion.
