Piping
In our sector, piping cord is also known as welting cord. Here, a cord is stitched into the fabric.
The available cord thicknesses are 2, 4 or 6 mm. These piping cords are eventually used in the finish of pillows, clothing, mattresses or bed linen, for example.
We also do a lot of contract work, where we process the fabric(s) provided to us by the customer into piping cord.

Cutting textiles
Our machinery is very well equipped to cut various types of textiles, such as biais.
Various types of cutting possible:

Bias and straight tapes
We distinguish this category between straight fabric and bias ( slanted ) fabrik. The bias fabric that you can buy on a roll is also known as biais, bias tape or bias ribbon.
Bias tape:
In the production of elastic bias tape and binding material, the straight fabric is laid at an angle. This way, the bias tape becomes stretchy, which makes it easier to use the elastic fabric to round off curves. If desired, you can buy bias tape in piping. As we are specialists in folding and cutting textiles, so you can also choose to buy your tape in folded form.
Straight fabric:
In addition to the stretch bias tape, we also have a very extensive stock of straight fabrics. All kinds of qualities and materials are available, in many different colours. We also often do contract work whereby we process your fabrics for you.
