Flawless Construction
LYCRA® fiber
Since its introduction in 1958, LYCRA® fiber has been utilized in a wide array of clothing and accessories. LYCRA® fiber’s exceptional elasticity and shape retention dramatically improve a garment’s comfort and fit: swimwear stays in place, intimate apparel fits like the first time every time, and hosiery keeps you moving freely all-day long. Starting in the 1980s, LYCRA® fiber has transformed diapers and other personal hygiene products. Today, LYCRA HyFit® fiber is a distinct product specifically designed to meet the needs of our customers within the hygiene industry.
