Common questions

What is the widest cotton canvas you can weave?

Up to 140 inches (about 356 cm) usable-width-dependent on the construction. Most mills stop at 63–98 inches, so wide bag, cover and upholstery panels come off our looms without a seam.

Can we buy greige and finish it in the UK?

Yes — greige (loom-state) canvas and duck by the roll from a 100 m minimum with no per-colour minimum, so you control dyeing, printing and coating in your own market.

Do you offer recycled-content canvas?

Yes, in recycled cotton or recycled polyester, with content declarations arranged at order stage. Certified chain-of-custody claims only where the certification is actually in place.
