RadiciSpandex Corp.'s versatile roster of high-performance RadElast® stretch fibers offer a wide range of features that enhance elongation, compression, shape retention and fabric appearance. Highlights of the range include:

·S17B – This versatile high-performance spandex boasts multiple features that benefit a number of end-use markets. Resistance to chlorine, UV rays and suntan oils makes S17B an excellent component in fabrics for swimwear. An inherent brightening feature, meanwhile, produces a pristine shade of white, which is a top-selling color in the intimates market. The fiber makes fabrics print more vibrantly and is well suited for activewear.

·S17PC – A version of S17 produced for the nonwovens industry, S17PC is a popular fiber in the baby diaper market and in adult incontinent products. Recent investments in RadiciSpandex's manufacturing processes have enhanced quality and output efficiencies in production of S17PC. The company's focus on product customization has yielded a colored version of this nonwovens fiber as a decorative element in baby diapers that has the functional benefit of differentiating the front and back of diapers.

·SRB – One of RadiciSpandex's newest innovations is a premium black spandex that produces a consistent shade of black, eliminating spandex grin-through when fabrics are stretched. This fiber, which also serves as a design element in fabric, is particularly attractive to the ready-to-wear, intimate apparel, swimwear, and activewear markets, among others.

·S45 – Fabric mills working with polyester stretch fabrics benefit from the high temperature-resistance of this polyether-based spandex that has 18 percent more modulus, denier for denier, giving lighter fabrics more control. S45 enhances warp knit and circular knit fabrics used in activewear, intimate apparel, and control garments, and provides chlorine resistance for swimwear. The fiber is available in flexible minimum order quantities.

·S85 – RadiciSpandex's versatile clear spandex has enjoyed longtime use in markets as diverse as legwear, ready-to-wear, medical applications, circular knits, warp knits, covering, and nonwovens. S85 offers excellent dyeability, tensile strength and shape retention.

RadiciSpandex fibers are produced in the United States. RadiciSpandex's ISO 9001-certified facilities include its Gastonia base and a manufacturing plant in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

The company is known for its personalized customer service and technical expertise, which has produced versatile, high-performance fibers that provide today's fabrics with excellent shape, fit and appearance. RadiciSpandex RadElast® fibers are Oeko-Tex certified and are NAFTA, CAFTA, CBI, and Andean Pact compliant.
