Everything You Need to Know
What is the difference between woven, knitted, and braided elastic?
Woven elastic is thicker, stronger, and retains its shape and width under tension—ideal for heavy-duty use. Knitted elastic is softer and more flexible, suitable for lightweight apparel. Braided elastic narrows when stretched and is best used in light applications like cuffs or sleeves.
Can woven elastic be customized for color, width, or strength?
Yes, most woven elastic manufacturers (like Proshiv) offer complete customization—choose your desired width, color, elasticity level, and even branding, depending on your application.
Is woven elastic washable and colorfast?
Absolutely. High-quality woven elastic is designed to be wash-resistant, colorfast, and durable under heat, making it suitable for repeated washes and long-term use in garments and industrial items.
Which industries commonly use woven elastic?
Woven elastic is widely used in the garment industry (waistbands, belts), automotive upholstery, medical braces, furniture manufacturing, and sports gear due to its durability and strength.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for bulk woven elastic?
The MOQ varies by manufacturer. At Proshiv, we cater to both small-scale designers and large industrial buyers with flexible MOQ options to suit different business needs.
