Cotton Cloth for Book Binding — Manufacturer & Exporter
Binding cloth is a light, closely-woven cotton, usually starch- or paper-backed and often dyed, that wraps a case cleanly and takes foil and emboss. We supply the base cloth; backing and coating run through converters.
What we recommend
Fine, even plain cotton — the standard book-cloth base before backing and coating.
Finish: RFD or piece-dyed; starch / paper backing via converters
For a subtle diagonal texture on premium case bindings and slipcases.
Finish: Piece-dyed
