Common questions
What's your minimum order?
100 m for greige, 1,000 m per colour for processed fabric. No full-container minimum.
How wide can you weave?
Up to 140 inch (about 356 cm). Most mills top out at 63 to 98 inch, so wide cloth usually means a seam. Here it doesn't.
How fast is delivery?
Greige in about 2 days, processed in about 2 weeks. That's production time; sea transit is on top. Market norm is 30 to 45 days.
Can you do RFD so we dye locally?
Yes. RFD by the roll is a core line. MOQ 100 m as greige, or take it RFD.
Do you weave linen too?
Yes, cotton and linen. Linen roughly 120 to 250 GSM. Send the construction or end use and we'll confirm what we can run.
What's the price per metre?
Depends on construction, width, finish and quantity. Send the spec, or the end use, and we'll quote. Priced per metre or per kg.
