You can be mindful in your fabric choices with our range of natural and organic fabrics. These natural fibres are derived from the planet rather than synthetic manufactured, so you can create with a clean conscience. Many of our natural and organic fabrics are also biodegradable, so they won’t create unnecessary waste. These field-to-loom fabrics are available with a downloadable certificate that signifies their organic origins. Keep your eye out for a green stamp to help you identify these fabrics.
Among our fabric selection, you’ll find premium silks and high-end cottons for your most extravagant projects.
Our fine silks are available in different weights with various properties and blends so that you can find the ideal silky fabric. Silk is renowned for its skin-loving properties, as it is non-irritating and non-abrasive, and leaves the skin full of moisture. Use our silks for sleepwear, bedding, lingerie, and other close-to-skin garments.
Cotton is a go-to fabric with an endless list of uses, from bandanas to jeans and even waterproof tablecloths. Whether you need a stiff cotton that holds its shape or a cotton that helps you dry off after a bath, you can find it for digital fabric printing right here.

Your designs are in safe hands as our technicians have lots of experience with custom fabric printing, ensuring every piece is top quality.

This always retains the original handle and feel of the fabric, and the resulting print is brilliant in full colour.
Our fabric printers print all week long, so you're able to print your own custom fabric in just 1 to 2 days, with no minimum order amount. Specify the exact dimensions you need for your fabric and order as much or as little as you need.

Or, if you think you have the right fabric picked out but just want to make sure, order a digital fabric printing sample of your design to see how it will look on the fabric. These test prints will help you make sure you're fully confident in your order before you commit. With our swatch packs and sample prints, you'll get a £10 voucher for your fabric order.

We want our digital fabric printing service to be as planet friendly as possible. We only create exactly what you order, which limits our waste and minimises environmental impact so that we can produce every order sustainably. To help reduce landfill waste, offcuts are collected and donated to local DIYers for them to reuse.
Since we work out of one regulated facility, this cuts unnecessary transportation and allows us to work with the water board to ensure ink waste is properly disposed of. As we add new fabrics to our collection, we’re keeping this promise in mind and sourcing more fabrics made from post-consumer poly and natural fibres.

Maybe you need a funky fabric but can’t exactly decide on the perfect pattern. That’s where our Contrado Creatives come in. These artists have designed their favourite fabrics with their favourite designs so that you can shop for a ready-to-print fabric that catches your eye. These purchases also support independent artists so that they can continue to do what they love, just like you!
Of course, this will always be the biggest question on your mind. With so many fabrics to choose from, how on earth can you make the right decision? We do our best to describe each fabric so that you can visualise how it will feel in your hands. If you want to be completely confident, ordering a swatch pack or sample print is a fool-proof method that ensures you will make the right choice for digital printing on fabric.
When you print your own custom fabric, most materials will be ready in 1-2 days. If you choose to have your fabric hemmed, this may add a bit of production time. For some fabrics, such as silks, we want to be extra careful to ensure there is no harm done to these delicate fabrics, so we estimate these turnaround times at 3-4 days. Once we are finished, you can have your fabric as soon as the next day.
We prioritise fabrics that are made in the UK and the EU. This is so we can support our local economy and reduce the amount of transportation needed, keeping our carbon footprint as low as possible. Each fabric comes from a different place, so if you’re curious about a certain fabric, be sure to check its page.
Digital fabric printing is a modern printing method that uses digital technology to print designs, patterns, or images directly onto fabric. It eliminates the need for traditional printing screens and plates by allowing designs to be printed directly onto fabric. Unlike traditional printing techniques, digital fabric printing offers greater design flexibility, intricate detailing, and customisation options. Digital printing on fabric offers several other advantages also, such as high quality, speed, and reduced waste.
