Key Benefits
This REPT Recycled Polyester Oxford Fabric is a high-performance textile engineered for demanding applications. Available in 300D, 420D, 600D, 900D, 1000D, and 1680D deniers, it is manufactured using either DTY (Drawn Textured Yarn) or FDY (Fully Drawn Yarn) for superior strength and consistency. The fabric features a specialized PVC or PU waterproof coating that creates a durable barrier against moisture, making it ideal for outdoor gear, bags, luggage, and industrial covers. Choosing this material means you are selecting a sustainable solution that does not compromise on durability or protection.
For you, this translates to end-products that withstand heavy use and harsh weather. The recycled content allows you to meet corporate sustainability goals and appeal to eco-conscious consumers. Whether you are manufacturing a rugged backpack or a chic pet accessory, this fabric provides the structural integrity and water resistance required for long-lasting performance.
Why choose this? Because we offer the flexibility of multiple deniers and coating options in one reliable source. We understand that different applications require specific tensile strength and hand-feel. Our team has tested these fabrics across various conditions, ensuring that the waterproof coating remains effective after repeated flexing and abrasion. This is the professional choice for brands that prioritize quality and environmental responsibility. For a lighter, breathable alternative for apparel, consider our 100 Percent Waterproof PU Coating 272 Twill Nylon Oxford Fabric.
Real Customer Feedback
“We ordered the 600D recycled version with a PU coating for our new line of laptop backpacks. The fabric handled the sewing process beautifully without fraying, and the final water resistance test results were outstanding. Our clients love the eco-friendly angle, and the material feels premium and sturdy. It’s become our go-to specification.”
– Marco V., Product Development Manager, Lugano Gear Co.
“I was skeptical about recycled materials, but this fabric is just as tough as virgin polyester. We use the 1680D for heavy-duty tool bags, and it has significantly reduced our warranty claims related to tears and water damage. The consistency in color and texture between batches has also been excellent.”
– Sarah J., Procurement Lead, Industrial Solutions Inc.
“Honestly, the lead time for custom dyeing was slightly longer than expected, but the final quality was worth it. The waterproof coating is uniform and doesn’t crack even when we fold the material tightly for storage. It is a reliable choice for our high-end cooler bags.”
– David L., Founder, CoolCrafters

Fabric Construction Options
- DTY (Drawn Textured Yarn): Offers a softer hand-feel and higher bulk, making it suitable for apparel and consumer bags.
- FDY (Fully Drawn Yarn): Provides higher tensile strength and a smoother surface, ideal for industrial uses and heavy-duty luggage.
Coating Type Benefits
- PU Coating: More flexible, better for cold weather applications, and offers a softer drape. It is also more environmentally friendly during production.
- PVC Coating: Provides a stiffer, extremely tough surface that is highly resistant to punctures and chemicals, perfect for tarpaulins and industrial covers.
FAQ
What is the difference between DTY and FDY polyester?
DTY (Drawn Textured Yarn) is crimped and textured to add bulk and softness, providing a cotton-like feel. FDY (Fully Drawn Yarn) is fully stretched during manufacturing, resulting in a smoother, stronger, and more rigid filament. For backpacks, DTY is common; for tool bags or industrial uses requiring high tear strength, FDY is often preferred.
Can I get this fabric in a custom color?
Yes, we offer custom dyeing services with a minimum order quantity (MOQ). We can match Pantone colors precisely for your brand. For existing stock colors, please ask our sales team for the current color chart. If you are creating a custom printed product, you might also be interested in our Custom 100 Percent Polyester Oxford Fabric Single Dye Water-Proof Lining for Luggage.
Is this fabric truly waterproof or just water-resistant?
With the specified PVC or PU coating, the fabric is waterproof. This means it will prevent water from passing through under normal rain conditions. The specific hydrostatic head rating (e.g., 3000mm or 5000mm) can be adjusted during production to meet your needs. Please specify your requirement when ordering.
What is the MOQ for this recycled fabric?
Our standard MOQ for recycled fabric with a specific coating is generally lower than custom dye lots. For standard black (which is often stocked), we can accommodate smaller trial orders. For custom colors or specific denier and coating combinations, the MOQ is typically 1000-3000 meters per color. Contact us to discuss your project volume.
Can this fabric be used for making towels?
No, this Oxford fabric is a woven technical textile designed for durability and water resistance, not absorbency. For soft and absorbent applications, we recommend our range of microfiber products, such as the Wholesale Super Absorbent Quick Dry Fitness Towel Custom Microfiber Sports Gym. It is a completely different material category.
