Custom Manufacturing

Custom Knitted Elastic

We build custom machines to meet your exact specifications — no job is too specialized.

Custom Manufacturing Capabilities

At American Elastic & Tape, custom work is not an afterthought — it is a core part of who we are. Our dedication to meeting unique client needs has led us to design and build our own specialized machinery.

Whether you need a unique width, a specific stretch ratio, a proprietary color, or a blend of materials not available off the shelf, our team has the expertise and equipment to deliver.

Custom Widths & Weights

We manufacture elastic in virtually any width and weight combination. From ultra-narrow 1/8" specialty elastic to wide 4"+ waistband elastic, we can produce it to your exact measurements.

Custom Colors & Branding

Need a specific Pantone color or a proprietary shade? Our dyeing capabilities allow us to match colors precisely, ensuring your elastic complements your product perfectly.

Specialty Materials

We work with a variety of fiber blends including nylon, polyester, spandex, and natural fibers. We can engineer the right material combination for your performance requirements.

Custom Machinery

Our commitment to custom work goes so far that we have built our own specialized knitting machines. This means we are not limited by off-the-shelf equipment — we engineer solutions from the ground up.
