POLY JERSEY (KNIT) FABRIC
Jersey is a knit fabric that has many great attributes. It is light and flexible, yet warm and insulating. It is a popular choice for t-shirts and a variety of other apparel. It is the knit of the fabric that makes it unique. Jersey fabric is machine-knit with a very small grain.
There is a right side and a wrong side, like most knitted fabrics. The right side has a vertical grain and the wrong side is horizontal. Apparel made with a jersey knit has the vertical grain facing out.
Polyester has long been regarded for its resistance to stretching and shrinking, and with the addition of elastin, it makes a jersey material that can’t be beat. Crisp and resilient when wet or dry, polyester works well for fluid jerseys as it does not wrinkle easily.

Polyester is an extremely difficult type of fabric to dye, especially if the garment is 100% polyester. This is because polyester is a synthetic fabric made from petroleum, and due to the manufacturing process, it is essentially plastic. Therefore, polyester is hydrophobic and lacks ionic properties. Dyes that are made for use on cotton or wool will not work on PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and other forms of polyester.
Therefore, we cannot provide desired colors via Neelam Color Chart or Pantone in Poly based fabrics but the client can choose from those Poly based fabrics which we have already dyed and are available with us in various colors (dyed with a class of dyes known as disperse dye ). Disperse dye is only slightly soluble in water, and works best on polyester.
