Heavyweight Polyester Four-Way Stretch Twill – CC-3448
Heavyweight polyester stretch fabric CC-3448 is created for garments that must feel protective and substantial without becoming completely rigid. Its 322 GSM weight provides strong garment body, while 7% spandex introduces four-way flexibility during bending, walking and repeated movement.
The fabric combines 93% polyester with 7% spandex, also known as elastane in European markets. Its multi-yarn specification—68D+50D+40D in both directions—creates a complex stretch-woven structure and a clearly defined twill surface.
Four-Way Movement in a Heavy Fabric
Heavy fabrics can provide structure and coverage but may become restrictive in close-fitting trousers. Four-way stretch allows the fabric to respond in both lengthwise and crosswise directions.
For buyers sourcing 322 GSM polyester four-way stretch twill for work trousers, CC-3448 may be considered for:
- Heavy work trousers
- Stretch utility pants
- Structured outdoor trousers
- Flexible uniform jackets
- Travel and commuting pants
- Work-inspired fashion garments
Actual stretch percentage and recovery should be measured according to the buyer’s required test method. Fibre content alone does not guarantee a particular stretch performance.
Structure Without Rigid Movement
The twill surface works naturally with utility and workwear styling. Its weight helps pockets, knees and garment panels retain shape, while elastane allows the finished garment to move more comfortably than a conventional rigid woven fabric.
As a water-repellent polyester elastane fabric for utility workwear, CC-3448 provides useful protection against brief drizzle and surface splashes.
It is not automatically waterproof or certified for protective clothing. Abrasion resistance, tear strength, seam slippage and occupational performance should be tested according to the final application.
Prototype Testing Is Important
A hand-stretch test cannot show the complete wearing experience. Buyers should review the material in an actual trouser or jacket, paying particular attention to knees, hips, waistbands, elbows and shoulders.
Before approving heavyweight polyester stretch fabric, confirm recovery, seam appearance, colour fastness, dimensional stability and water-repellent durability.
