Description
Flat Lurex Cord Braided Elastics
Designed for Professional Manufacturing
Our Flat Lurex Cord Braided Elastics are engineered for textile manufacturers and commercial producers who require decorative impact alongside dependable elasticity. Textile Enterprises Limited manufactures this product in-house, combining a natural extruded rubber core with a 100% Lurex metallic braided outer to deliver strength, flexibility, and visual appeal.
Furthermore, the flat braided construction provides controlled stretch and stable recovery. As a result, manufacturers achieve consistent performance in high-volume production where both durability and presentation are essential.
Material Construction and Performance
This elastic delivers an approximate 100% stretch rate, closely matching our flat polyester braided elastic range. In addition, the metallic Lurex outer offers a smooth, soft-touch finish while maintaining excellent strength under tension.
Because of this balanced construction, the elastic handles repeated stretching without losing shape. Moreover, it remains lightweight, easy to work with, and suitable for both decorative and functional garment components.
Product Options and Range Availability
Our standard width for this product is 5–6mm. However, we can also manufacture widths of 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm to meet specific design or production needs. The elastic is supplied neatly on 100-metre rolls, which supports efficient storage and uninterrupted production workflows.
As standard, this product is available in Gold and Silver. Additionally, we can manufacture other colours upon request by referencing our Lurex Shade Card, subject to minimum order quantities.
