At Aether Textile, our Light Weight (150–300g/m²) fabrics form part of our advanced technical textile portfolio, designed to deliver the perfect balance of strength, flexibility, and comfort. This GSM range is ideal for achieving durable yet comfortable materials suited for outdoor, protective, and industrial applications. With integrated weaving, coating, laminating, and finishing capabilities, we provide customized TPU coated lightweight fabrics that meet precise mechanical and environmental requirements.
One example within this range is our 70D screen printed nylon fabric coated with polyester TPU, which combines light weight with dependable durability for demanding applications.
Our lightweight technical fabrics offer an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring durability without sacrificing flexibility. The combination of high-performance yarns and advanced TPU coating technology results in materials that are waterproof, breathable, and soft to the touch. Each fabric benefits from our in-house lamination and finishing processes, guaranteeing consistent quality and performance across every batch.
These performance-driven features make Aether Textile’s technical lightweight fabrics a trusted choice for industries seeking innovation and environmental responsibility.
We offer a wide selection of base materials for Light Weight (150–300g/m²) fabrics, including nylon fabric, polyester fabric, RPET (recycled polyester), and blended constructions. Each base can be enhanced through specialized coatings such as TPU, PU, or silicone to deliver specific performance features like waterproofing, flame retardancy, or chemical resistance.
| Base Material | Coating Type | Key Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Nylon / Nylon66 | TPU or PU | High strength, flexibility, and abrasion resistance |
| Polyester / RPET | TPU or Silicone | Excellent dimensional stability and sustainable sourcing |
| Blended Fabrics | PU or Hybrid Coating | Balanced performance for multifunctional applications |
Color, surface finish, and mechanical properties can all be tailored to customer needs, ensuring that each lightweight waterproof fabric aligns perfectly with its intended use.
The Light Weight (150–300g/m²) category is widely used across industries where mobility, protection, and comfort are essential. These fabrics are frequently chosen for outdoor gear, technical apparel, and industrial covers due to their balance of weight and strength.
Typical applications include:
For instance, our lightweight TPU coated nylon fabric is favored in outdoor and industrial sectors for its performance and design adaptability.
Choosing the right 150–300 gsm fabric depends on your application’s performance priorities. Lower GSM fabrics offer greater flexibility and breathability, while higher GSM options provide enhanced strength and abrasion resistance. Selecting the appropriate coating—TPU, PU, or silicone—further refines barrier and mechanical properties.
| GSM Range | Recommended Use | Key Properties |
|---|---|---|
| 150–200 g/m² | Apparel, medical textiles | Light, soft, breathable |
| 200–250 g/m² | Outdoor gear, tents | Balanced strength and comfort |
| 250–300 g/m² | Industrial and marine covers | Enhanced durability and barrier protection |
