Często zadawane pytania
How does mechanical stretch differ from spandex stretch?
Mechanical stretch uses yarn texturing (false-twist or air-jet) to create coil-like structures that extend and recover. Spandex uses elastane filaments. Mechanical stretch is more durable but offers less extension.
Can mechanical stretch fabric be recycled?
Yes. Mechanical stretch fabrics (without spandex) can be fully recycled as pure polyester or nylon, making them preferable for eco-friendly product lines.
