Green Elastic 25 mm – Sold by the Metre

Strong elastic with a decorative design

This green elastic combines practical stretch with a distinctive and carefully finished appearance. A dark blue decorative design runs along the centre of the band, with small white and warm-coloured details. This makes the elastic not only functional, but also suitable as a visible part of a garment or accessory.

With a fixed width of 25 mm, the band is wide enough for applications that require strength, without appearing heavy or bulky.

Applications

Use this elastic for making or repairing braces, for parts of sportswear, or as an elastic finish for clothing and accessories. It is also suitable for waistbands, bags and other creative sewing projects where a decorative elastic band is required.

The dark green base colour combines beautifully with fabrics in dark blue, black, cream, rust brown and natural green shades. The design is shown to best effect when part of the band remains visible.

Processing and practical tips

Before cutting, carefully measure how much elastic you need and determine the required amount of tension. For clothing, first test a small piece to check whether the elastic fits comfortably without feeling too tight.

Sew the elastic with a stitch that can move with the stretch, such as a narrow zigzag stitch or another stretch stitch. Choose a needle that is suitable for the fabric you are combining with the elastic. Finish the ends carefully to help prevent fraying during processing.

When making braces, also check that any sliders, buckles and fastening clips are suitable for a band width of 25 mm.

Sustainable repairing and creating

Elastic can be used to replace stretched or damaged parts of clothing, allowing an existing garment to remain in use for longer. Short leftover pieces can also be saved for small repairs, loops or decorative details.

Because you order the elastic in the required length, you can match the quantity to your project and reduce unnecessary material waste.

ORDERING INFORMATION

You can order this product to the exact centimetre. The stated price is per metre.

HOW TO ORDER

Quantity: enter the number of separate pieces you need.
Length: enter the required length per piece. The entered length applies to each individual piece. For example, would you like 2 pieces, each measuring 1.50 metres?

FIXED WIDTH AND CONTINUOUS LENGTH

This product is supplied in a fixed width. The width is stated in the product specifications. Before ordering, check whether the fixed width is suitable for your intended application. Would you like one continuous piece measuring, for example, 3 metres? Enter 1 under Quantity and 3.00 m under Length. You will receive one continuous 3-metre piece, subject to the available length on the roll. Do you need several pieces in different lengths? Add them as separate order lines or contact us before ordering.

PATTERN OR REPEAT

Does the product have a design, texture or repeat? Check the product specifications to see whether a pattern repeat is stated, in which direction the pattern runs, whether several pieces need to align and whether additional length is required. A pattern calculation is only applied when this is expressly stated with the product.

REQUESTING A SAMPLE

Is a sample available for this product, and would you first like to assess the colour, texture, quality or thickness? Enter 1 under Quantity and 0.10 m under Length. You will receive a 10-centimetre sample across the fixed width of the product. Does the product have a large design or a clearly visible repeat? A 10-centimetre sample may then be too small to assess the complete pattern. In that case, order at least one full pattern repeat or contact us beforehand. A sample is intended to help you assess the material. Colour and appearance may vary from the product photograph due to lighting and screen settings.
