88% Polyester 12% Spandex Antibacterial Anti-Odor Interlock Knit combines 88% polyester filament / 12% spandex with a Interlock Knit construction. It is aimed at Team Uniforms that require durability, colour consistency and easy care, and the reason is straightforward: the workhorse blend for training ranges that wash repeatedly, so Antibacterial Anti-Odor.

Why this construction works
Because a double-bed interlock knit is used, the fabric behaves consistently across the roll: identical faces on both sides, so the fabric stays opaque under tension. That consistency is what lets a factory cut confidently and lets a brand repeat an order a season later with the same result.

Dyeing, finishing and customisation
The fabric can be supplied greige, piece dyed or printed. Add-on finishes are selected after a wash durability trial, because a finish that disappears after five washes is worse than no claim at all.
Care instructions
- Machine wash at 30 degrees with mild detergent, no fabric softener.
- Dry away from direct heat and do not tumble dry hot.
- Cool iron on the reverse if needed, and avoid bleach.

Frequently asked questions
Is the performance tested on every lot? Yes. The named test method is repeated on bulk fabric, not only on the approval sample, and the report carries the lot number so results can be traced back.
What is the minimum for a first order? Development starts at 300 metres per colour, which is enough for a proper wear trial and a small capsule. Bulk pricing improves at 1,000 metres and above per colour.
