Developed for Team Uniforms, this Power Mesh Knit answers the most common brief we receive: durability, colour consistency and easy care. The yarn package is 50% polyester / 42% polyamide / 8% elastane, chosen because it provides a dense surface that takes sublimation print cleanly, and the finished cloth is set and tested so that 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: a dense surface that takes sublimation print cleanly.
- 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
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.
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.
