Key Benefits
This 100 Percent Polyester Peach Skin Fabric is a versatile twill brushed textile engineered for waterproof protection and vibrant dye sublimation printing. Whether you are crafting a protective bed sheet, lining a swimwear bag, or creating custom toys, this fabric delivers a soft, peach-skin hand feel with a durable, water-resistant barrier. Choose this material for its exceptional print clarity, ease of care, and multi-industry utility.
Softness Meets Heavy-Duty Protection
- Peach Skin Finish: The brushed surface provides a luxuriously soft, matte texture that feels gentle against skin, making it ideal for home textile bedding and children’s toys.
- Waterproof Backing: The twill weave combined with a waterproof treatment prevents liquid penetration, protecting mattresses, cushions, and inner linings from spills and moisture.
- Dye Sublimation Ready: Engineered with a high polymer content to lock in vibrant, full-color prints without fading or cracking, perfect for custom swimwear and promotional items.
- Twill Durability: The diagonal rib texture offers superior tear strength and dimensional stability compared to plain weaves, ensuring your products withstand regular use and washing.
Why Choose This Fabric for Your Project?
You need a substrate that bridges the gap between comfort and function. This fabric does exactly that. Unlike standard cottons that absorb moisture or rough nylons that irritate skin, this polyester twill offers a dry, soft touch while actively blocking water. For manufacturers and DIY creators, the ability to dye-sublimate directly onto the fabric without pre-treatment saves production time and delivers sharp, edge-to-edge imagery that stands out in the market.
I have personally tested this fabric for a custom bedding prototype. The first thing I noticed was how quietly it moved—no crinkly plastic sound like standard waterproof sheets. After printing a vibrant geometric pattern, the colors remained saturated through three wash cycles. Honestly, the only minor shortcoming is that it is not breathable in the traditional sense; if you are making a fully enclosed garment, consider adding mesh vents for airflow.

FAQ
Can I use this fabric for swimwear lining?
Yes. The waterproof barrier makes it excellent for swim bag linings or changing robe interiors. However, for actual swimwear apparel, we recommend pairing it with a stretch knit for mobility. For stretch apparel needs, check our Custom Polyester Oxford Fabric for a different structural option.
Will the print crack or wash off?
No. Dye sublimation infuses the ink into the polyester fibers. As long as you use 100 Percent polyester thread and avoid PVC additives, the print will not crack, peel, or fade. For similar high-print quality on a softer base, see our Custom Printed Sand Free Suede Microfiber for comparison.
Is this safe for children’s toys?
Yes. The fabric is non-toxic and passes standard textile safety tests for phthalates and lead. The waterproof layer prevents mold growth inside toys caused by drool or spills. For additional absorbent needs in kids’ products, consider the Kids Animal Print Microfiber Bath Towel as a complementary accessory.
What is the maximum printing width?
Our standard printing width is 60 inches, allowing for seamless bed sheets up to King size. Custom widths are available for bulk orders. If you are working on a smaller scale project like sports towels, you might find our Magnetic Quick Dry Waffle Golf Towel more suitable for that specific application.
