How to choose and where to buy water-repellent fabrics?

High-quality water-repellent fabrics were developed by a group of scientists who invented their special properties.

What are water-repellent fabrics?

If we talk about fabrics intended for clothes production, they must be not only waterproof, but also breathable, so that wearing such clothes is comfortable. The following technologies are used for this:

  • Laminate membranes that adhere to the back of the material;
  • Coatings are liquid compositions that are applied to the material to enhance water repellent properties;
  • Impregnation is made by several compositions that protect the front side of the material from moisture and do not affect its breathing properties.

Waterproof fabrics can have a natural or synthetic basis. In the second case, polyester is most often used. It is resistant to mechanical stress and abrasion, flexible and easy to clean.

Types of Italian water-repellent fabrics

There are several varieties of waterproof fabrics differing in the composition and method of weaving:

  1. Tafetta is a material made of polyester or nylon with an internal film coating. It doesn’t fade and doesn’t lose structure under the influence of moisture. It also doesn’t shrink;
  2. Oxford is a rigid fabric resulting from basket weaving. It is a heat-resistant and durable material;
  3. Taslan is a polyamide material, resembling a hem in texture. It is protected by a special impregnation, due to which it is often used for sewing products filled with down and feathers;
  4. Duspo is a material with a matte surface, used for the production of children's outerwear.

Advantages of Italian waterproof fabrics

Water-repellent materials are valued for their ability to resist moisture, as well as for a number of other features:

  • High quality materials can pass air well;
  • They have a high density, therefore they do not stretch and do not lose shape after washing;
  • Synthetic fibers are dyed well. Fabrics based on them are distinguished by bright colors that do not fade over time;
  • Help to keep warm, often used for tailoring outerwear.
