lasteks

Lasteks is a term that can refer to several things, most commonly a type of elastic textile or a brand name associated with such products. In its textile context, lasteks describes a woven or knitted fabric that incorporates elastic threads, such as spandex or elastane. This elasticity allows the fabric to stretch and recover its original shape, making it suitable for garments that require a close fit and freedom of movement. Examples include activewear, swimwear, hosiery, and intimate apparel. The specific properties of lasteks, such as its stretch recovery, durability, and breathability, depend on the type and proportion of elastic fibers used in its construction.

Beyond the general textile description, "Lasteks" can also be a brand name. Companies in the textile industry often use specific brand names for their proprietary elastic yarns or fabrics to distinguish them in the market. Such branded lasteks might offer unique performance characteristics or cater to specific manufacturing processes. Consumers and manufacturers might encounter the term lasteks when purchasing elastic threads, fabrics, or finished goods where the elastic component is a key feature. The precise meaning of lasteks is therefore often determined by the context in which it is used, whether referring to the generic property of an elastic textile or a specific commercial product.
