Project Details



Please describe the project specifications

Using our proprietary Sailcloth Technology, Dimension Polyant has solved the problem of wet totes, packs and duffels by laminating traditional cotton duck to polyester film.


What was the purpose of this project? What did the client request?

The purpose of the project was to develop a completely waterproof fabric, while maintaining a traditional cotton duck look.


What is unique or complex about the project?

DIMENSION-POLYANT's X10 Cotton Duck is the first 100% waterproof cotton duck in the market. Additionally the X10 fabric has a black polyester X-PLY® yarn inserted at 22 degrees off the warp for improved tear resistance.


What were the results of the project?

The development of the X10 Cotton Duck resulted in a highly technical yet traditional looking fabric. X10 has proven to be popular for pack and bag manufacturers. DP now stocks X10 Cotton Duck in Natural, Black, Captain Navy, Eclipse Grey, Olive, Red Wine, and Truffle Brown.
