Water-Resistant and Coating Finish

About XO Fabric

XO Fabric (Mingyi Textile) is a professional wholesale knit fabric manufacturer based in Foshan, China, established in 2005. We offer comprehensive functional finishing services — from water-resistant DWR treatments to heavy-duty PU and PVC coatings — applied across all fabric types including warp knits, weft knits, and woven substrates. Our integrated production line covers weaving, dyeing, printing, and coating finishing under one roof, ensuring tight quality control from treatment application to final delivery. For buyers launching performance lines or technical apparel collections, we provide one reliable supplier across both fabric base and finishing — simplifying QA, reducing handoffs, and supporting faster time to market.

Product Highlights

• DWR (Durable Water Repellent) for outdoor apparel and activewear: Provides excellent water-beading performance while maintaining fabric breathability. Ideal for polyester, nylon, and blended knits where comfort and weather protection must coexist.
• PU (Polyurethane) coating for mid-range waterproof applications: Creates a flexible, durable waterproof barrier on both knit and woven fabrics. Suitable for rain gear, workwear, and accessories where moderate water pressure resistance is required.
• PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) coating for heavy-duty waterproofing: Delivers maximum water resistance for tarpaulins, heavy-duty bags, tenting, and industrial protective covers. Withstands prolonged exposure to harsh weather and mechanical stress.
• Technical laminated finishing for multilayer composites: Bonds membrane layers or fleece backings to face fabrics for high-performance outdoor and technical apparel. Customizable adhesion strength and lamination width to suit your garment construction.

Technical Specifications

Ordering & Shipping

Our MOQ is 500 meters for finishing services — a practical starting quantity for brands developing new performance lines and testing coating performance before scaling to bulk orders. We handle commission processing on both customer-supplied base fabrics and our own in-house substrates, giving buyers flexibility depending on their supply chain setup. Lead time is typically 10-20 business days, depending on treatment type and current scheduling; heavy-duty PVC coating may require additional curing time. Shipping is arranged from Guangzhou/Foshan with FOB terms. When placing your order, share your base fabric specification, target treatment type, and any functional testing requirements — we will confirm feasibility and realistic lead time before you commit.

Recommended Applications

Outdoor Apparel and Sportswear: DWR-treated performance fabrics keep athletes dry in light rain while preserving moisture-wicking properties. Popular for running jackets, hiking outerwear, and cycling gear where breathability matters alongside weather protection. The treatment maintains a natural fabric hand without the stiff feel of fully coated alternatives.

Rain Gear and Workwear: PU-coated fabrics form a reliable waterproof barrier for rain jackets, fishing apparel, and industrial workwear exposed to wet environments. PU coating is flexible enough to follow garment movement while resisting water penetration — a practical balance for workwear brands and uniform suppliers.

Bags, Tents, and Protective Covers: PVC-coated substrates provide long-lasting waterproof performance for luggage, backpacks, tenting, awnings, and heavy-duty protective tarpaulins. With high mechanical strength and UV resistance, PVC-coated materials hold up under prolonged outdoor exposure without delaminating or cracking.

Technical and Military Textiles: Laminated fabric composites meet the high durability and weatherproof standards required for military-grade outerwear, tactical gear, and performance sports equipment. We work with buyers to specify membrane type, adhesion strength, and lamination width to match your construction requirements.
