Tired of flimsy materials failing you in wet weather? GW-TEX presents its Premium Waterproof Oxford Fabric—a game-changing textile engineered for unmatched protection, versatility, and style. Available in 100% polyester or nylon variants, this fabric redefines what waterproof gear can be, from rugged outdoor essentials to sleek urban accessories.
Dual Material Mastery: Polyester vs. Nylon for Every Need
Choose between two powerhouses:
100% Polyester Oxford:
- Lightweight (200–500gsm) yet resilient, ideal for backpacks, picnic blankets, and dog beds.
- Features a subtle woven texture that absorbs vibrant sublimation prints, perfect for branding or artistic designs.
100% Nylon Oxford: - Military-grade durability (150D–2000D yarn count) withstands abrasion, tearing, and extreme weather.
- Smooth surface excels in screen printing, making it a top choice for luggage, tents, and industrial covers.
Both variants share a dual-sided waterproof design: the front repels water into bead-up droplets, while the back boasts a thick PU/PVC laminate (white or black) for impenetrable moisture barrier.
Performance Meets Practicality: Why This Fabric Outshines the Rest
No-Sweat Sewing: Despite its heavy-duty performance, the fabric remains flexible—no stiffness, bulk, or sewing struggles. Perfect for intricate designs like diaper bags or tote bags.
Stain-Free Assurance: Optional anti-fouling finish ensures the PU backing resists oil, dirt, and grime—ideal for messy environments (think baby gear or outdoor picnics).
Fire-Safe Innovations: For high-risk applications, select our flame-retardant variants compliant with:
- NFPA 701 (USA wildland fire standards)
- CPAI-84 (USA upholstery fire code)
- BS5852 (UK furniture flammability tests)
Design Freedom: Print, Customize, Stand Out
GW-TEX empowers your creativity:
Digital Printing Mastery:
- Sublimation: Vivid, all-over prints that penetrate the fabric weave for fade resistance.
- Screen Printing: Bold, opaque designs ideal for logos or graphics on dark-colored oxfords.
Finishing Touches: - Add a DWR (durable water repellent) topcoat for extra water bead-up effect.
- Recommend 1-inch FOE (fold-over elastic) for clean, professional edge finishes.
