Chenille Fabric Printing
This fabric is constructed of spun chenille yarn, built using a tight traditional chenille weave construct, which creates a classic chenille finish with a ‘caterpillar’ pile on the face of the fabric. We use poly fibres to create a thin warp and a thick weft. This fabric weighs in at 330gsm. This weight combined with the type of weave, makes the material quite thick and reasonably heavy, making it great for preserving heat. Due to its strong base and tight weave, our custom made Chenille fabric UK is hardy and durable. It is a water-absorbent material making it ideal for use in clothing as well as printing on chenille upholstery fabric.

FAQ

We have probably seen it mostly used in upholstery. It is a thick, textured fabric that holds up well in everyday life. We have alternative textiles with similar properties, so it might be worth ordering our swatch pack if you are looking to upholster.

The Chain is much more of a wearable jersey, with a stretch woven in and it has a soft texture on both sides. The Chenille, however, is much stronger and tougher and can be used for long-lasting projects.
