Description
100% Polyester Nomex Single Jersey Lining Fabric for Garments, Uniforms, Protective Clothing & Technical Linings
100% Polyester Nomex Single Jersey Lining Fabric is a lightweight knitted material designed for garment linings, uniforms, protective clothing, costume construction and technical textile applications. Made from 100% polyester, it features a flexible single-jersey construction that provides a smooth, comfortable layer inside garments and fabricated products. The fabric has been FR treated and has a set agent applied to support improved flame-retardant performance and dimensional stability. Supplied in an 80cm width and available by the metre, it is suitable for professional manufacturing, repairs, sampling and specialist sewing projects.
The single-jersey structure gives the fabric softness, flexibility and a degree of stretch, allowing it to move comfortably when used inside clothing or layered textile products. Its lightweight construction helps reduce bulk while providing a neat internal finish. The FR treatment and set agent application make it suitable for projects where an enhanced flame-retardant lining is required, although the relevant test certificate should always be checked where compliance with a specific safety standard is essential.
