Materials

FB218

Our white FB218 fabric is a 135 gsm tricot polyester knit with a brushed face (raised nap). Rollers with bristles are brushed across the fabric, which helps break some of the small fibers on the exterior of the material and teases them out. This process allows this fabric face to be compatible with certain hook fastening systems. It also provides a softer feel than a basic knit fabric.
