Our Stay Dry Dimple Fabric LITE version is meticulously designed to offer unparalleled safety and eco-friendliness, devoid of PFOS, PFOA, lead, dioxins, heavy metals, BPA, and all forms of phthalates, including DEHP, DBP, BBP, DINP, DIDP, and DnOP. This innovative fabric incorporates our pioneering Ready-AbZORB technology, eliminating the necessity for pre-washing to initiate super absorbency and drastically minimizing fabric shrinkage by 60% to 80%. This ensures maximum utilization of material and offers exceptional value. Achieving rapid absorption, this fabric can soak up 10 times its weight in less than two seconds, significantly outperforming traditional materials such as bamboo, cotton, and hemp. Its construction integrates durable and reversible Zorb 3D fibers between layers of polyester with superior wicking properties, alongside a unique, engineered dimple pattern for optimal moisture retention and distribution.

  • Baby and Toddler Essentials: Ideal for making bibs, burp cloths, and play mats, providing softness, durability, and effective moisture management.

☀️ Read about UV Protection in Fabrics - Your Total UPF Rating Guide

Important Note about UPF Ratings:
Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) indicates how much UV radiation (both UVB and UVA) a fabric allows to reach your skin. For example, a UPF 50 fabric blocks 98 % of the sun’s rays and allows 2% (1/50th) to penetrate, thus reducing your exposure risk significantly. A UPF 30 fabric blocks 97% of UV rays and allows roughly 3% of UV transmission. UPF 15 indicates that the fabric blocks roughly 93% of UV rays and allows about 7% of available UV radiation to pass through.

UPF 10 to 30 = Fair Protection
UPF 30 to 50 = Good Protection
UPS 50+ = Excellent Protection

Important Note about Absorbency in 3D & 4D Zorb fabrics:
These fabrics are designed to be absorbent and made without the use of any chemicals during manufacturing. Our Ready-AbZorb process helps eliminate the need for pre-washing for absorption and also reduces the shrinkage. However the fabrics are made in large batch sizes on industrial machines and sometimes the fabric may not absorb as desired from when you receive it, or sometimes after cutting and sewing. In such cases, we recommend running the fabric through a hot wash and medium dry cycle; this will help remove any handling residues and activate the super absorbent fibers that might have been affected by handling.
