Elbeco Announces New Tek Twill - Uniform Innovation Permanently Resists Spills While Remaining Soft and Breathable with Stretch

Reading, PA - Elbeco's new Uf/x™ - Uniforms with Special Effects introduces the most technologically-advanced fabric available in the market: the new TekTwill™ uniform fabric powered by NanoTex® Resists Spills technology. TekTwill™ offers permanent water resistance while maintaining breathable comfort. This pioneering fabric technology also features uniform strength requirements, such as vat dyeing for superior color retention and dynamic stretch for unbeatable comfort.

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 this new TekTwill™ fabric this spring in Elbeco's Uf/x™ Tactical Twill uniform shirts and trousers, EMS Trousers and BasicDuty (BDU) uniform.
