Rory Anderson Agencies can manufacture and supply a wide range of components, textiles and accessories for various industries. While our main focus is the footwear market, we can also source and supply specialised textiles, such as warp knit and air mesh, for South African businesses. Warp knit is not manufactured in bulk quantities in South Africa, so we make use of our extensive network in Asia to source these materials.
Warp knit is a highly breathable, net-like fabric with holes. It can be used for many purposes in multiple industries, such as mining, sports and hospitality. Warp knit can also be used in advertising to laminate backgrounds of billboards. Research is currently underway in other industrial sectors, such as warp knit concrete reinforcement and biotextiles.
Warp knit textiles are slightly stretchy and do not ladder if a thread is pulled out. They have a complicated structure that makes them durable and breathable. Warp knit textiles are only produced by machine, so large quantities can be manufactured in a short period of time. These textiles dry very rapidly if they get wet, making them ideal for sportswear and other applications where humidity may be involved.
Warp knit fabrics can be used to manufacture netting, shoe uppers, bags and swimwear. Here is a list of other applications:
Rory Anderson Agencies can source, supply and ship warp knit textiles in bulk quantities to South Africa. We can guarantee on-time delivery of high-quality fabrics from China and India. For more information or to get a quote on warp knit orders, please contact us today.
