170T 180T 190T 210T High Quality 100% Polyester Taffeta Fabric with embossed

Product Overview

This embossed polyester taffeta is a lightweight woven fabric developed primarily for linings and other low-bulk textile components where appearance, coverage, and efficient handling matter. It is made from 100% polyester and is offered in 170T, 180T, 190T, and 210T density options.

The embossed pattern gives the surface a more decorative and sophisticated character than plain lining fabric, making it suitable for visible linings, bag interiors, garment details, and selected home-textile uses.

The product page describes the fabric as lightweight, breathable, durable, versatile, and suitable for long-lasting use. These are qualitative product descriptions rather than measured laboratory grades. Actual hand feel, air permeability, tear strength, dimensional stability, water resistance, flame-retardant performance, and other functional results can vary with the selected density, dyeing route, coating, embossing pattern, and production batch. Buyers should approve the exact quality and request relevant test information before bulk production.

Product Specifications

Material, Construction, Appearance, and Hand Feel

100% polyester construction. Polyester provides a practical base for lining and utility fabrics because it can be produced consistently in different densities, colors, and finishing routes. The final behavior of this product should be evaluated according to the exact 170T, 180T, 190T, or 210T construction and any coating applied.

Taffeta structure. Taffeta is a woven structure commonly selected for its relatively smooth surface, low bulk, and crisp handling. The commercial “T” designations are density references and should not be treated as guaranteed thickness or performance grades. A higher T count may create a finer, closer appearance, but yarn, weight, finish, and coating also influence the final hand and drape. Buyers comparing several counts should request swatches or approval samples rather than select by count alone.

Embossed surface. The raised pattern gives the fabric a more distinctive visual effect and can make a lining or interior component feel more considered than plain solid taffeta. Because the pattern scale and embossing depth are not specified, confirm the available embossing design and inspect a physical sample under the intended lighting before color and bulk approval.

Plain-dyed and coated routes. The source lists plain dyeing as well as silver, PA, PU, and PVC coating options. These are available finishing routes, not proof that every quoted quality includes every coating or functional property. A coating can change weight, stiffness, drape, air permeability, surface appearance, sewability, and care requirements.

Buyers should define the end use first and confirm the coating side, coating type, target performance, hand-feel tolerance, and testing standard during development.

Key Product Features

• Decorative embossed appearance: Adds texture and visual interest to garment linings, bags, luggage, and other sewn-product interiors.
• Choice of fabric densities: 170T, 180T, 190T, and 210T options allow buyers to compare different levels of compactness, coverage, and handling.
• Lightweight and breathable character: These qualities are stated on the product page and support lining applications, although coated versions may be less breathable than plain-dyed versions.
• Durable and versatile positioning: The source presents the fabric as suitable for repeated practical use across garments, bags, luggage, bedding, and home textiles. Required tear, abrasion, shrinkage, or wash performance should be specified and tested for the final application.
• Flexible finishing and color development: Custom colors and plain-dyed, silver-, PA-, PU-, or PVC-coated routes are listed for project-specific sourcing.
• Functional possibilities requiring confirmation: Waterproof, flame-retardant, anti-static, tear-resistant, and shrink-resistant features appear on the source page. Ask which are standard, which require an additional finish, and which test reports or certificates are available for the selected specification.

Detailed Applications and Use Cases

Garment Linings for Jackets, Blazers, Coats, and Skirts

This is the product’s clearest primary application. Its lightweight, low-bulk taffeta structure can provide an interior layer without adding excessive volume, while the embossed surface gives visible linings a more premium decorative effect.

It can be considered for jackets, blazers, coats, skirts, pocketing, and selected garment panels where a polyester lining is appropriate.

Buyers should select the density and weight according to the outer fabric, garment price level, desired coverage, and required drape. Confirm opacity, seam slippage, tear strength, colorfastness, antistatic performance, and compatibility with the shell fabric.

For tailored garments, run a sewing trial to assess how the lining feeds, turns at edges, and behaves at armholes, vents, pockets, and stress points.

Sleepwear, Wedding, and Bridal Garment Components

The page associates this taffeta with sleepwear and wedding or bridal products. In these programs, the fabric is best evaluated as a lining, underskirt component, interior facing, decorative panel, or other secondary layer where its embossed appearance can add visual interest.

For bridal or occasion garments, review the shade under event lighting, the sound and crispness during movement, and whether the chosen weight supports the intended silhouette.

For sleepwear or any prolonged skin-contact use, do not rely on the general “breathable” description alone. Confirm the final hand feel, air permeability, colorfastness, chemical requirements, and comfort through sampling and wear evaluation. A coated option may be unsuitable where softness and moisture transfer are priorities.

Bags, Luggage, Purses, and Totes

Embossed polyester taffeta can be used for bag and luggage linings, interior dividers, pockets, and low-load decorative panels. The surface pattern can improve the perceived finish of the interior, while the lightweight construction helps control product weight. Custom colors also allow coordination with the exterior material and brand palette.

For luggage, travel bags, or frequently used totes, confirm abrasion resistance, tear strength, seam strength, coating adhesion, color transfer, and cleaning requirements.

Reinforce handles, zipper ends, corners, and other load-bearing areas with an appropriate structural construction rather than expecting the lightweight lining fabric to carry these loads by itself.

Bedding, Home Textiles, and Sofa Components

The source lists bedding, home textiles, and sofa applications. Suitable uses may include inner linings, backing layers, dust covers, pillow or cushion components, storage-product linings, and light decorative sections. The embossed pattern can be useful where the material remains partly visible.

For bedding or upholstered products, determine whether the fabric will be a hidden support layer, decorative layer, or direct-contact surface.

High-abrasion upholstery faces, mattress applications, children’s products, and regulated flammability programs require application-specific testing and should not be approved from the general product description alone. Confirm breathability, seam performance, colorfastness, flame requirements, restricted substances, and care conditions for the destination market.

Umbrellas and Weather-Related Accessories

The product page associates the fabric with umbrella use and lists waterproof performance. However, waterproofing should be treated as a selected finish rather than an automatic property of every plain-dyed embossed taffeta.

For umbrellas, rain accessories, covers, or similar products, specify the required coating, water-resistance target, hydrostatic or spray-test method, seam construction, colorfastness, and aging expectations before sampling.

Silver, PA, PU, and PVC coatings can produce different hand, weight, appearance, folding behavior, odor, and durability. Ask for a finished sample in the exact coating and color, then test opening and folding cycles, seam leakage, coating adhesion, and storage conditions before bulk approval.

Toys and Light Sewn Accessories

The page also associates the fabric with toys. It may be considered for toy linings, inner covers, costume elements, storage accessories, and non-structural decorative components.

If the end product is intended for children, confirm the destination-market toy-safety, chemical, flammability, small-part, and colorfastness requirements before production. Product suitability must be determined from the final toy design and tested fabric specification, not from the fabric category alone.

Design and Manufacturing Considerations

• Approve the exact construction: Request a sample matching the chosen density, weight, width, color, embossing pattern, and coating. A sample from one finish should not be used to approve another.
• Clarify the weight unit: The source lists 57–90 g/m. Confirm whether quotation and inspection will use grams per linear meter or grams per square meter, and record the agreed tolerance.
• Confirm finished width: The listed ranges are 57–67 in and 150–170 cm. State the required usable width and width tolerance in the purchase specification.
• Run cutting and sewing trials: Lightweight taffeta can fray at cut edges. Select the needle size, thread, stitch length, seam allowance, and edge finish through a trial on the final coated or uncoated quality. Check seam slippage and needle damage at stress points.
• Protect the embossed effect: Excessive heat or pressure during pressing, calendaring, bonding, packing, or garment finishing may change a raised surface. Test the planned temperature, dwell time, and pressure on an approval sample.
• Evaluate coatings separately: PA-, PU-, PVC-, and silver-coated versions may handle differently from plain-dyed fabric. Confirm coating side, adhesion, flexibility, blocking, fold marks, sewing performance, and any required water or flame test.
• Set measurable performance requirements: If the project needs waterproof, flame-retardant, anti-static, tear-resistant, shrink-resistant, abrasion, colorfastness, or wash performance, provide the applicable method and acceptance value before quotation. The source page does not publish measured grades.
• Establish care instructions from testing: No care label is stated on the page. Washing, drying, ironing, and cleaning recommendations should be based on the final dyeing and coating route and the complete end-product construction.
• Use lab dips and approval samples: Allow the listed 3–5 days for a lab dip and 7–10 days for a plain-color approval sample. Confirm color under the buyer’s required light sources before bulk production.

Customization, Sampling, and Bulk Ordering

Color and finish customization. Colors can be developed according to customer requirements. The page lists plain-dyed, silver-coated, PA-coated, PU-coated, and PVC-coated routes. Confirm feasibility, MOQ, target performance, embossing pattern, coating side, color standard, and hand-feel requirements for each custom program.

OEM and branding. OEM service is available depending on the buyer’s requirements, and logo customization is listed as possible. Because branding methods can differ by end product and fabric finish, provide the logo artwork, intended placement, application method, color standard, and durability requirement for evaluation.

Minimum order quantity. The listed MOQ is 2,000 meters per color. Custom specifications, colors, coatings, embossing, logos, or packing may require separate minimums; confirm them in the quotation.

Sampling timeline. A lab dip normally requires 3–5 days. A plain-color approval sample normally requires 7–10 days. Development timing for a new embossing pattern, special coating, or other custom route is not stated and should be confirmed before the project calendar is fixed.

Bulk lead time and capacity. The listed mass-production lead time is 3–20 days. The page states production capacity of more than 3 million meters per month and daily output of up to 150,000 meters. Actual scheduling depends on quantity, color count, greige availability, finishing route, testing, approval status, and seasonal capacity.

Packing and loading. Standard references are rolls of 50 m, 100 m, or 200 m, with packing also available according to the buyer’s requirements. The page lists usual loading references of approximately 190,000 m for a 20GP and 380,000 m for a 40GP.

Confirm actual loading after the width, roll length, core, wrapping, carton or bale requirements, and shipping marks are agreed.

Shipping. Express and sea freight are listed. The appropriate method depends on whether the shipment is a lab dip, sample, approval yardage, or bulk order.

Payment. For first-time clients, one section states 30% down payment and 70% before shipment by T/T; repeat clients may be considered for L/C, and other terms may be negotiated.

The product specification section separately states 30% T/T in advance and 70% upon receipt of a copy of the bill of lading. Because these descriptions differ, confirm the final payment schedule in the quotation, proforma invoice, and sales contract before placing the order.

Price. Price depends on quantity and quality. The source states that online pricing uses three quantity tiers and that a larger quantity receives a more favorable price.

For an accurate quotation, specify density, weight unit, width, color, finish, embossing, testing, packing, quantity per color, and destination.

2024–2026 Fabric Regulations & Compliance Update

For EU-bound garments, accessories, luggage, bedding, or home-textile products, buyers should review the final fabric composition, coating chemistry, intended consumer use, and date of sale. Two resources are particularly relevant to this polyester taffeta:

• EU REACH PFHxA Restriction and the China Fabric Supply Chain: This is especially relevant when the taffeta uses a water-resistant, waterproof, coated, or other performance finish. Plain-dyed, PA-, PU-, PVC-, and silver-coated routes should not be assumed to have the same chemical profile. If an EU program has PFAS or restricted-substance requirements, state them before sampling and request chemistry information and finished-fabric testing appropriate to the final lot.
• ESPR and Digital Product Passport for Chinese Fabric Supply Chains: EU textile programs are moving toward more structured product, material, substances-of-concern, and supply-chain data. Buyers may need consistent product identification, composition, color and finish records, batch traceability, supplier declarations, test reports, and other supporting documents for the final article.

Regulatory and retailer requirements vary by destination market, product category, consumer use, finish, coating, production batch, and date of sale. The links above are sourcing resources, not proof that this product is certified or legally compliant.

Before bulk production, buyers should confirm their legal and retailer standards and contact FabricsTrades to request available test reports, certificates, declarations, technical data sheets, SDS/TDS information, traceability records, or third-party testing support. Availability and scope depend on the final specification and testing request.
