Product Overview & Key Features
Bamboo rib knit fabric is produced with a rib knitting structure that creates vertical texture and natural stretch. Both 1×1 and 2×2 rib constructions are commonly available, offering different levels of elasticity and fabric appearance. The bamboo fiber content gives the fabric a soft, smooth hand feel with excellent breathability and moisture absorption, while the added spandex improves recovery and shape retention.
With a typical weight range of 200–260 gsm, this fabric is suitable for close-fitting garments that require comfort and flexibility. It performs well in underwear, thermal tops, fitted T-shirts, children’s wear and lightweight lounge garments. The rib construction also helps the fabric maintain structure while remaining comfortable for everyday wear and repeated washing.
