Piece Dyed Suiting Fabric Supplier

Shaoxing Fuxing Textile Technology Co., Ltd. is a Piece Dyed Suiting Fabric manufacturer working out of Keqiao, Shaoxing, with a broad selection of piece-dyed qualities running inside our wider women's suiting fabric program. The core of the offer is polyester-rayon-spandex in plain, twill, crepe and double weave, extended by wool-blend and wool-cashmere qualities for autumn and winter tailoring. We weave on 128 imported Italian rapier looms and piece dye to the confirmed shade for women's blazers, suits, trousers, skirts and waistcoats, and for corporate uniform programs that need the same color to return order after order.

How Piece Dyeing Shapes a Suiting Program

Piece dyeing colors the woven greige as a whole roll instead of coloring yarn before weaving. The construction and the greige are fixed early; the color is decided at the order. That sequence is what makes the process work for tailoring lines that run several shades on one cloth or bring an approved shade back season after season.

• Color decided at order stage: shade matched to a buyer swatch or a Pantone reference, so a carry-over style can be re-colored without rebuilding the fabric.
• Greige held in stock: dyeing begins after order confirmation, which keeps the critical path shorter than a yarn-dyed construction that has to be scheduled at the yarn stage.
• Shade uniformity inside the lot: whole-piece dyeing plus controlled shade procedures keep one dye lot visually consistent across the cutting table.
• Volume economics: a concentrated color range and larger quantities per shade improve the cost position, which suits uniform and workwear programs built on a standard color card.

Designs that need color inside the yarn itself, such as a pinstripe, a check or a heather, sit in our yarn dyed suiting fabric and top dyed ranges instead, with striped fabric for suits running alongside them. Piece dyeing is the right base when the surface is solid and the shade is the variable.

The Piece Dyed Range We Produce

Our piece-dyed qualities are organized into four series, and the styles shown on this website are only a selection of what we produce. Each series answers a different garment problem rather than a different price point.

TR Solid Stretch Series

Polyester, rayon and spandex in plain, twill, crepe and double weave. This is the working core for women's blazers, tailored trousers, skirts and waistcoats, built in 2-way and 4-way stretch depending on the style. FX50160 double-side poly rayon 4-way stretch is a typical build for a ladies' suit or blazer where the cloth has to hold a shoulder line while staying soft at the elbow.

TR Wool Blend Series

Wool-content qualities, several with cashmere, in twill, crepe and herringbone. These carry autumn and winter tailoring: heavier blazers, wide-leg trousers, structured skirts and waistcoats. Reactive dyed wrinkle-resistant wool blends hold shade depth and recovery in the same cloth, and the herringbone constructions add pattern without printing.

Double-Weave Series

Two layers woven as one cloth, with both sides finished well enough to serve as the face. A jacket can be made unlined or partially lined without exposing a dull reverse, and the extra body helps a clean lapel roll and a sharp trouser crease.

Functional Finish Series

Base cloths finished for wrinkle resistance, anti-pilling or high fastness, aimed at trousers, uniforms and any style that goes through repeated laundering. These finishes sit on top of the stretch construction rather than replacing it, so shape retention survives the wash cycle.

Series, Construction and Garment Fit

The matrix below shows how the series map onto the garments we normally see them cut into, together with the performance point each one is built around.

Weight, Stretch and Hand Feel

Weave decides the surface and the drape. Twill gives a diagonal line and a dense, hard-wearing face that suits trousers; crepe gives a pebbled matte surface that reads softer on a skirt or a soft blazer and hides light creasing; plain weave is the flat base for clean, quiet cloth; herringbone reverses the twill direction into a zigzag for pattern without color.

• Weight bands: 180-220 GSM for spring and summer tailoring; 240-300 GSM for autumn and winter blazers, trousers and skirts.
• Stretch: spandex is added in the weft, typically at 3-5%, producing 15-25% moderate stretch.
• Recovery: the construction is set so the cloth returns after wear, with no bagging at knees or elbows.
• Pilling: T/R stretch qualities reach grade 3-4 under ISO 12945.
• Wrinkle behaviour: wrinkle-resistant finishing with good recovery; hanging overnight restores the surface and low-temperature ironing is sufficient.
• Hand feel: soft and dry, with enough body to keep a lapel and a waistband in shape through a working day.

Shade Matching, Dyeing and Repeat Orders

Shade is matched to a customer swatch or a Pantone reference and confirmed on a dyeing prototype before bulk. Reactive dyeing is used on the qualities where laundering fastness matters most, such as trouser and uniform cloth that is washed rather than dry cleaned, and the shade control procedure runs through the batch rather than at the end of it.

Because greige is held in stock and color is applied at order stage, a repeat on an approved shade is a dyeing instruction rather than a new development. Production data is recorded per batch through our ERP system, which is what makes a reorder predictable months after the first delivery.

Testing and Quality Control Behind Each Roll

Each meter passes 8 main processes with at least 3 intermediate inspections between yarn intake and packing, and the batch record follows the fabric through weaving, finishing and final inspection. Testing runs in our own laboratory on every batch, with third-party reports issued when a program specifies an external laboratory.

• Physical properties: abrasion, pilling, breaking strength, tearing strength
• Color fastness: washing, rubbing, light, perspiration, chlorine bleaching
• Dimensional stability: shrinkage rate, distortion rate
• Composition analysis: fiber identification and content

Suiting qualities are covered by OEKO-TEX Standard 100 conformity, and technical datasheets and compliance documents are issued with the range.

Sampling and Development Support

Our sample development centre runs its own sample weaving machine, sample warping machine and dyeing prototype machine, which lets a construction change and a shade change be tested together rather than one after the other.

• Sampling cycle: 5-12 days for regular samples, with urgent requests negotiated against the development calendar.
• Replication: an existing customer sample can be rebuilt in composition, weave and finish.
• New development: new structures and surface effects developed from a reference or a written specification.
• Adjustment variables: blend ratio, weave structure and color are the three we change most often at sample stage.

Information We Use to Configure Your Fabric Proposal

A suiting quotation is only useful when it is built on the working point. We assemble the proposal around the inputs below, and where one of them is still open we normally put forward two or three constructions that answer it.

• Target garment and style: blazer, full suit, trousers, skirt or waistcoat, and whether the piece is lined.
• Composition direction: T/R, T/R with spandex, wool blend, or wool-cashmere.
• Weave and surface: plain, twill, crepe, herringbone or double weave.
• Weight and season: GSM target and whether the style is spring/summer or autumn/winter.
• Stretch: weft-only or 4-way, and the level the pattern needs.
• Color: physical swatch, Pantone reference, or an approved shade from a previous order.
• Finishing: wrinkle resistance, anti-pilling, fastness level.
• Testing: the standard the program will be judged against, and whether third-party reports are required.
• Quantity: total meters and the split per color.
• Delivery: the window the line needs the fabric in, and the destination.

From Sample to Bulk Delivery

Annual output runs above 10 million meters, with customers in more than 20 countries and regions. Bulk lead time is 25-30 days from order confirmation, following the 5-12 day sampling stage, and inquiries are answered within 24 hours.

Documentation travelling with an order includes technical datasheets, the approved sample and shade record, internal test data, and third-party reports where the program specifies them. Finished rolls pass through final inspection, packaging and warehousing as the closing steps of the production flow.

Common Questions on This Range

What is the difference between piece dyed and yarn dyed suiting fabric?

Piece dyeing colors the woven greige as a whole roll, so the shade is set at order stage and the cloth can be re-colored for a repeat or a new season without rebuilding the construction. Yarn dyeing colors the yarn first, which is how stripes, checks and heathers are made and where the color has to be part of the weave. Both run in our women's suiting program, with piece dyeing covering the solid shades that most blazers and trousers use.

Which weights do you produce?

We build 180-220 GSM for spring and summer tailoring and 240-300 GSM for autumn and winter. Within those bands the weave and the spandex content are what change the hand, so a crepe at 200 GSM reads quite differently from a twill at the same weight.

How much stretch do your T/R suiting fabrics have, and will they bag at the knee?

Spandex is added in the weft at typically 3-5%, giving 15-25% moderate stretch. The fabric is designed for recovery, so trousers and jacket sleeves return to shape after wear instead of holding a knee or elbow impression.

Can you match a Pantone shade or a physical swatch?

Yes. Shades are matched to a buyer-supplied sample or a Pantone reference, confirmed on a dyeing prototype before bulk, and controlled through the batch so the dye lot stays consistent across the full roll set.

What are your sampling and bulk lead times?

Regular samples are delivered in 5-12 days, with urgent requests negotiated separately. Bulk orders run 25-30 days after confirmation, on an annual capacity above 10 million meters.
