88% Polyester 12% Spandex Quick-Dry Power Mesh Knit combines 88% polyester filament / 12% spandex with a Power Mesh 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 Quick-Dry.

Why this construction works
The construction does the work before any chemistry is added. a high modulus warp knit mesh means controlled support at very low weight with maximum air exchange, and that structure is what allows the fabric to releases absorbed moisture fast enough to be ready for the next session under the conditions Team Uniforms actually face.

Performance features
- Quick-Dry: releases absorbed moisture fast enough to be ready for the next session, measured by AATCC 199 drying rate.
- Hand and comfort: the workhorse blend for training ranges that wash repeatedly.
- Construction benefit: controlled support at very low weight with maximum air exchange.
- Consistency: GSM and width tolerance are locked per lot and recorded on the inspection sheet.
- Durability: performance is verified after repeated washing, not only as delivered.
Recommended applications
The first choice for Team Uniforms, where durability, colour consistency and easy care is the requirement that decides the fabric. It also converts cleanly into coordinated pieces in the same programme, since the hand and the shade run together.

Frequently asked questions
Can the weight and width be changed? Yes. Most programmes run between 140 and 340 GSM, and width can be set between 150 and 180 cm to match your marker. Changing weight changes cover and stretch, so we re-test before confirming.
Can we get recycled content with this construction? In most cases yes. GRS certified recycled nylon or polyester can replace the virgin yarn with full chain of custody documents, usually with no visible change in hand or performance.
