The 1.85m Lightweight Wheat Fabric for Garments offers a sustainable, breathable solution for everyday apparel, merging eco-conscious manufacturing with high-performance functionality. With a generous width of 1.85 meters, it minimizes seam lines in large garments, making it ideal for summer dresses, flowy blouses, lightweight shirts, and activewear like yoga pants and tank tops. Crafted from 100% recycled polyester derived from post-consumer plastic bottles, each meter of fabric diverts 12 plastic bottles from landfills—equating to approximately 0.5kg of plastic waste saved per meter. The fabric’s lightweight 180 GSM density and innovative micro-perforated weave (featuring 0.05mm air holes) ensure maximum airflow, keeping wearers cool even in warm temperatures (25–35°C). Its natural wheat color palette (cream, tan, golden brown, and oat) complements earthy aesthetics and minimalist designs, with subtle variations that add organic charm.
Eco-Conscious Production: Beyond using recycled polyester, the fabric is GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard)-certified, ensuring compliance with strict environmental and social criteria throughout the supply chain. It uses water-based dyes that reduce chemical runoff by 60% compared to traditional petroleum-based dyes, and the manufacturing facility operates on 30% renewable energy (solar and wind power).
Moisture Management: The recycled polyester fibers are engineered with hydrophilic channels that enhance moisture-wicking properties, drawing sweat away from the skin to the fabric’s surface where it evaporates quickly. Its breathability rating of 80 CFM (cubic feet per minute)—significantly higher than conventional cotton (50 CFM)—ensures rapid air circulation, keeping wearers cool and dry during physical activity.
Durability: Enhanced with anti-pilling technology (a special fiber treatment that reduces friction-induced fuzzing), the fabric maintains a smooth surface even after repeated wear and washing. It boasts a colorfastness rating of 4-5 on the AATCC scale, showing minimal fading—less than 10% color loss—after 20+ machine washes.
Versatile Styling: Its neutral tones serve as a perfect base for both casual and semi-formal designs, pairing seamlessly with bold prints, embroidery, or accessories. The fabric’s subtle linen-like texture—created through a slight irregularity in the weave—adds visual interest without overwhelming, making it suitable for minimalist aesthetics and bohemian styles alike.
The fabric’s distinctive textured surface is achieved through a double-knit technique, where two layers of yarn are interlocked to create a lightweight yet durable structure that resists tearing and stretching. This technique also enhances drape, allowing garments to flow naturally while maintaining shape. Its self-edge finish—a tightly woven 1cm border—eliminates fraying, reducing sewing time by simplifying edge handling. For bulk orders, custom printing options are available, including floral patterns, geometric designs, and brand logos, with a minimum order quantity of 50 meters and a lead time of 7–10 business days for digital printing or 14–21 days for screen printing.
Is this fabric suitable for activewear?
Yes! Its 4-way stretch (15-20% in width, 10-15% in length) and superior moisture-wicking properties make it ideal for yoga apparel, running shirts, and athleisure wear, providing both flexibility and comfort during movement.
Can it be dyed?
Custom dyeing services are available for orders of ≥100 meters, with a minimum lead time of 10 days to ensure color accuracy. We offer Pantone color matching, with physical swatches provided for approval before full production to ensure alignment with brand standards.
How should it be cared for?
The fabric is machine washable in cold water (30°C maximum) on a gentle cycle with mild, eco-friendly detergent. Tumble dry on low heat (60°C maximum) or air dry to preserve texture and color. Avoid bleach or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the fabric’s moisture-wicking properties and eco-friendly finish.
What is the recommended sewing thread?
Use fine polyester thread (size 50/2) paired with a size 75/11 universal needle to avoid visible stitch marks on the lightweight fabric. For seams requiring extra strength (like waistbands or hems), reinforce with lightweight fusible interfacing (15–20 GSM) to maintain flexibility while enhancing durability.
