Polyester Twill Lining Suppliers

In high-end and functional clothing, the choice of lining directly impacts the garment's hand-feel, durability, and overall texture. Since its establishment in 2003, Shaoxing Yongjun Textile Co.,Ltd., a leading lining manufacturer in China, has been focusing on the research and production of various woven and knitted linings, including yarn-dyed, piece-dyed, and processed linings in jacquard, plain, twill, and satin weaves, as well as those processed with embossing, glazing, printing, coating, hot stamping, burnt-out, and lamination. 

Basic Characteristics of Twill Structure

The twill structure of Twill Lining is formed by the interlacing of warp and weft yarns, creating diagonal lines on the fabric surface. Compared to the 'checkerboard' pattern of a plain weave (one up, one down) and the smooth, lustrous surface of a satin weave, the twill structure offers several distinct advantages:

1. Softness and Drape The twill structure allows for a relatively looser arrangement of yarns, making Twill Lining softer and smoother to the touch than plain lining, while also possessing excellent drape. This characteristic makes it widely used in high-end garments such as suits, trench coats, and jackets, where it can naturally conform to the inner shape, enhancing wearing comfort. The R&D team at Shaoxing Yongjun Textile Co.,Ltd. ensures a balance between softness and support by strictly controlling yarn density and weight, offering a lining that maintains shape yet feels skin-friendly.
2. Abrasion Resistance and Durability Due to the diagonal interlacing of yarns in the twill weave, stress is more evenly distributed. Consequently, Twill Lining is significantly superior to plain lining in terms of abrasion resistance and tear strength. This is crucial for inner linings of garments that are frequently used or subject to constant friction. Yongjun Textile's production process utilizes high-performance fibers such as polyester, poly-cotton, and nylon, and employs precision weaving and finishing techniques to substantially enhance the service life and stability of the twill lining.
3. Visual Effect and Texture The inherent diagonal lines of the twill structure give Twill Lining a stronger sense of three-dimensional texture and luster. Compared to satin lining, which is smooth but lacks the layering effect of the twill, and plain lining, which appears relatively flat, twill stands out. Shaoxing Yongjun Textile Co.,Ltd. designs rich patterns and visual effects for jacquard and dyed twill linings by combining colored yarns and designing twill direction, meeting the stringent quality requirements of high-end apparel brands.
4. Moisture Absorption and Breathability The yarn interlacing method of twill lining creates subtle micro-channels within the fabric, allowing for better air circulation and moisture wicking than dense plain fabrics. This makes Twill Lining more suitable for the inner linings of spring/summer wear and sportswear, enhancing wearing comfort. Yongjun Textile further optimizes the moisture absorption and breathability of its twill lining through blends of poly-cotton and natural cotton fibers, achieving a balance between functionality and comfort.
