Key Benefits
- Waterproof rating of 5000mm documented in the source text
- Moisture permeability of 5000g/m2/24h supports breathability during light activity
- DWR level 5 before washing ensures effective water beading on the surface
- DWR level 4 after washing maintains functional water repellency post-wash
- 100% terylene fabric provides a stable, durable base for outerwear construction
Problems It Solves
- Unverified claims about waterproof performance in outerwear
- Lack of post-wash DWR performance data in technical garments
- Inconsistent breathability in lightweight outerwear without documented metrics
Who It Is For
- Outdoor and lifestyle brands sourcing lightweight waterproof garments
- Importers needing testable performance data before placing orders
- Private-label buyers requiring fabric specifications for supply chain documentation
Application Scenarios
- Light rain protection for urban commuting in damp climates
- Outdoor activity in moderate weather where breathability is needed
- Garments requiring documented performance for retail compliance
Technical Features and Construction
- 100% terylene fabric construction
- Waterproof rating of 5000mm

- DWR level 5 before washing
- DWR level 4 after washing
Materials
- Shell fabric is 100% terylene
- Durable water repellent finish applied to the surface
- No additional lining or insulation specified
How It Is Made
- Terylene fabric is treated with DWR coating during finishing
- Waterproof and breathability performance is measured post-treatment
- No additional layers or laminations are applied beyond the base fabric
Quality Control and Testing
- Waterproof rating verified at 5000mm
- Moisture permeability verified at 5000g/m2/24h
- DWR level tested before and after washing
Certification
Customization Options

- Size grading and fit block: adjustable to the buyer's spec sheet
Compared With the Alternatives
| A standard terylene fabric without DWR | YD283 has a DWR finish that maintains water beading before and after washing |
|---|---|
| A fabric with higher waterproof rating but no breathability data | YD283 includes documented moisture permeability for balanced performance |
| A fabric with no post-wash DWR testing | YD283 confirms DWR level 4 after washing, supporting durability claims |
Use and Care Guide
- Wash according to care instructions to maintain DWR performance
- Reapply DWR treatment after repeated washing to restore level 5 performance
- Avoid abrasion to the fabric surface to preserve water repellency
- Store in a dry, ventilated area to prevent moisture absorption

What is the waterproof rating of YD283?
5000mm, as stated in the source text.
What is the moisture permeability value?
5000g/m2/24h, as specified in the source text.
What does DWR level 5 before washing mean?
The fabric surface effectively beads water immediately after treatment.
How does DWR performance change after washing?
DWR level drops to 4 after washing, which is still functional but requires reproofing.
Can we request other colours?
