Bamboo Spandex Jersey
-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --
Product Overview
Our Bamboo Spandex Jersey is a high-performance, four-way stretch fabric designed for the modern lifestyle. By integrating high-quality elastane (Spandex/Lycra) into the bamboo viscose knit, we have created a material that offers unparalleled flexibility without losing its original shape. This fabric is characterized by its incredible "bounce-back" capability and a buttery-soft surface that feels like a second skin. As a specialized manufacturer, we use a precision knitting technique that prevents "grinning"—a common defect where the spandex pops through the surface. This ensures a smooth, matte finish that is ideal for high-end activewear and intimate apparel. Whether you are designing yoga leggings that require total opacity or lightweight camisoles that need a snug fit, our bamboo spandex jersey provides the technical performance and aesthetic elegance required for top-tier garment construction. It is highly breathable, sweat-wicking, and naturally deodorizing, making it the superior choice over synthetic polyester-based stretch fabrics.
Introduction
In the world of stretch textiles, the Bamboo Spandex Jersey stands out as the ultimate eco-friendly alternative to nylon and polyester. At Nantong Tianhong, we focus on the "Skin-Friendly Evolution." Most stretch fabrics rely on synthetic fibers that trap heat and cause irritation; however, our bamboo-based jersey allows the skin to breathe even during intense physical activity. The 95% bamboo and 5% spandex ratio is our most popular construction, offering the perfect amount of compression and freedom. The fabric’s cool-to-the-touch sensation is a natural property of the bamboo plant, which we preserve through gentle processing. This introduction to our stretch collection highlights our ability to combine the luxury of natural fibers with the utility of modern synthetics. We serve a global clientele of boutique yoga studios, maternity wear brands, and luxury basics labels who demand a fabric that performs as well as it looks. With a wide array of GSM options and a massive library of trend-forward colors, we are equipped to bring your most ambitious designs to life.

Why Choose Us
Nantong Tianhong is a specialist in Stretch Fiber Technology.

Our factory utilizes German-made knitting machines which produce a much more uniform stitch than standard equipment. Furthermore, we offer Low MOQ for Custom Colors, allowing you to launch niche collections without heavy inventory risk. Our technical team is available 24/7 to provide advice on the best GSM and construction for your specific garment type, ensuring you get the performance you need at a factory-direct price.

Advantages
- Superior Stretch Recovery: Our advanced heat-setting process ensures the fabric does not sag or bag out after repeated wear.
