Lining materials

Lining materials are the materials closest to the skin of the wearer and influence the comfort of the garment.
You can choose quality backing materials to match the outer materials from a huge selection of types and colors.
We can respond with attention to detail with our raw materials or weaving and knitting for a wide range of uses ranging from ladies’ wear to men’s wear, children’s clothing, and uniforms. We can respond flexibly to the apparel needs demanded by the times in terms of range of products, small lot production, delivery in a short lead time, and so on.

A product that has sold enough to go around the earth ten times: “Somebijin®”

The number one original product among Sankei lining materials is #1818 taffeta “Somebijin®.”
It was developed at the same time as we were setting up our dye works (Fukusen Plant) in 1988, and it is a polyester taffeta lining material with a supple, flexible texture and a chromogenic and unobtrusively shiny appearance.
“Somebijin®” is still produced today, and we have now shipped more than 410,000 km of the material. Placed end to end, this would be enough to go around the earth ten times or to reach the moon.
In recent years, we have also started selling a stretch version, #1918 “Somebijin® Stretch,” and a next generation version, #1188 “Somebijin® Premium.” Product development to meet the needs of the times is still continuing.
