Construction notes
How this fabric behaves
Written by our technical team from production data, not marketing copy.
Blending 55% linen with 45% cotton softens the crease and lowers the price without losing the slub character buyers recognise as linen. At 160 gsm it is light enough for summer shirting and structured enough for dresses and wide-leg trousers.
The cotton content also improves dye uptake consistency, so pale and mid-tone shades repeat more closely than on 100% linen. We stock 20 shades and can piece-dye to Pantone TCX from 300 m.
Ordering notes
- Lab dips are prepared in 7–10 days including courier; one re-dip is free.
- Bulk production starts after dip approval and runs 18–28 days.
- Roll lengths are 50–120 m; short rolls are declared on the packing list.
- Shrinkage is measured to ≤3% warp, ≤2.5% weft on the finished fabric. Cutting allowances should still be confirmed on your own wash standard.
Questions
Linen Cotton Blend 160 FAQ
Specification and ordering questions specific to this fabric.
Does a linen-cotton blend still crease?
Less than pure linen. The cotton content reduces creasing noticeably, though it is not wrinkle-free. Brands wanting a crisp finish usually add a resin-free press at the laundry rather than a chemical finish.
What is the price difference between linen and linen-cotton?
Linen-cotton typically costs 30–35% less than 100% European flax linen at the same weight, mainly because cotton fibre and its spinning route are cheaper.
