Cotton Sheeting for Book binding

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.
