Knitted Elastics – Comfort, Stretch, and Versatility

At Armotex, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality knitted elastics designed to meet the diverse needs of industries ranging from apparel to medical applications. Our knitted elastics combine exceptional stretch, durability, and comfort, making them a go-to solution for manufacturers and designers seeking reliable performance.

What Are Knitted Elastics?

Knitted elastics are crafted by intertwining elastic fibers with materials like polyester or nylon, resulting in a soft, flexible, and breathable product. Unlike other elastic types, knitted elastics maintain their width when stretched and retain their resilience even when sewn through, offering a smooth finish and consistent performance. Available in a variety of widths, colors, and stretch capacities, they are as versatile as they are functional.
