Elastic buyer's guide
Specify stretch for the finished product
Elastic tape should be selected for how it stretches and recovers in the assembled garment or accessory. Width, construction, fiber content, sewing tension, wash conditions and the amount of stretch in normal use all affect the result.
What is elastic recovery?
Recovery describes how an elastic sample returns after it has been stretched and released. State the test method, extension, hold time, number of cycles and acceptable result when comparing samples.
What is the difference between knitted and jacquard elastic?
Knitted elastic uses a knitted structure; jacquard elastic incorporates a pattern or wording into its construction. Feel, appearance and performance vary by the actual sample, so compare candidates in the finished product.
Can elastic be made with a logo?
KVN lists jacquard elastic. Share vector artwork, tape width, repeat and color references to discuss readability, feasibility and sample approval.
What details should a quote request include?
Include application, relaxed width, intended extension, recovery and care requirements, color, artwork, estimated quantity and delivery destination.
