Product Description
White Synthetic Fleece Lining – 150cm Wide
The White Synthetic Fleece Lining is a high-performance textile material designed for professional applications requiring a combination of softness, thermal insulation and durability. Manufactured from quality synthetic fibres, the product offers a cost-effective and animal-friendly alternative to natural fleece - while maintaining excellent tactile and functional characteristics.
At 150cm in width, this fleece lining provides significant coverage per metre, making it a practical choice for both small-scale and industrial manufacturing. Its consistent weight and density ensure reliability across batches, and its clean white appearance lends itself well to a wide variety of end uses across multiple sectors.
Material Composition and Surface Qualities
This fleece is composed of synthetic polyester fibres, engineered to replicate the warmth and texture of natural fleece. The surface is soft to the touch yet resilient, with good loft retention over time. The brushed finish creates a cushioning effect, providing a gentle barrier between skin and surface—ideal for applications requiring prolonged or direct skin contact.
Despite its softness, the material maintains good structural integrity, with a stable knit base that resists distortion during cutting, stitching, or repeated use.
Dimensional Stability and Working Width
At 150cm wide, the fleece allows for efficient cutting layouts and reduced wastage, especially in pattern-driven production environments. This wide format is particularly beneficial for large-scale garment or upholstery manufacturing where seam minimisation and continuous runs of material are key to quality outcomes.
The fleece is supplied in rolls and can be cut and shaped using conventional fabric handling tools. It is compatible with a range of adhesives and bonding techniques commonly used in orthotic, textile and upholstery industries.
Thermal and Insulative Properties
One of the primary performance characteristics of this fleece is its excellent thermal insulation. The fibre structure traps air effectively, offering warmth without excessive weight or bulk. This makes it particularly suitable for cold-weather apparel, protective covers, orthotic linings or interior padding.
Its breathability allows moisture to evaporate through the material, helping to regulate body temperature and reduce perspiration build-up in wearables or seating systems.
Durability and Washability
Unlike many natural fleece products, this synthetic variant demonstrates superior wash resistance and shape retention. It is machine washable, dries quickly and does not shrink or degrade with routine laundering. These qualities make it a practical material for healthcare applications, sports equipment, pet bedding and any use-case requiring frequent cleaning.
The material is also resistant to pilling, an important consideration when appearance and texture must be maintained over time.
Typical Applications
- Medical & Orthotic Use: Frequently used as a soft interface lining in orthoses, prosthetic sockets, braces and padding where patient comfort is critical.
- Footwear Manufacturing: Ideal for use in slipper linings, winter boots and therapeutic footwear requiring soft, warm interiors.
- Garments & Accessories: Appropriate for use in jacket linings, gloves and hats to enhance insulation without adding significant weight.
- Upholstery & Seating: Adds warmth and comfort to wheelchair cushions, support seating and other therapeutic furniture.
- Pet Products: Commonly selected for the inner lining of pet beds, blankets and jackets due to its soft texture and washability.
Ethical and Environmental Considerations
As a synthetic, non-animal-derived product, this fleece is suitable for use in settings with strict ethical, religious, or allergy-related material requirements. Its long life cycle contributes to waste reduction compared to less durable alternatives - making it a suitable choice for organisations pursuing sustainable sourcing strategies.
Although not biodegradable, the product’s durability reduces the frequency of replacement and lowers long-term material consumption.
