New Elbeco Tek Twill Fluid Resistant Uniforms Feature Expanded Color Range With OD Green And Spruce Green Now Available

Reading, PA - Elbeco now offers the most technologically-advanced poly-cotton twill fabric available in the public safety market: the new TekTwill(tm) uniform fabric powered by NanoTex® Resists Spills technology with an expanded range of Colors for Law Enforcement and Public Safety. Spring 2006 Elbeco is introducing Olive Drab Green styles, for tactical, training, military and forestry environments and Spruce Green, approved for use by the Florida Sheriffs Department.

TekTwill(tm), which was introduced as an upgrade to Elbeco's Tactical Twill Uniform series, features NANO technology that gives permanent fluid resistance while maintaining breathable comfort. This is combined with dynamic stretch fabric and waistband that moves with you for more comfortable work clothing.

NanoTex® Resists Spills technology permanently provides fluid resistance to each fiber. Fibers are enhanced at the molecular level, permanently enhancing each strand while leaving the look, feel and comfort of the fabric unaffected. Fluids simply bead off your clothing rather than soaking in, keeping you dry and maintaining cool breathability.

Nano technology is combined with a dynamic 8% stretch, offering unmatched give in this rugged 7 oz poly cotton twill blend uniform fabric. Pressure-heated vat dyeing assures superior color retention as well as product color consistency.

Look for new TekTwill(tm) OD Green styles available in Long and Short Sleeve shirts, Cargo Pocket Trousers and Shorts. Spruce Green styles include Long and Short Sleeve shirts and Cargo Pocket Trousers. Trouser styles are available in both Men's and Women's sizes. Other colors available include Dark Navy Blue, Black and Brown
