The Teal Recycled Plastic Fabric is a technical and artisanal textile originating from Bengal, designed to provide maximum strength, structure, and a unique visual impact for fashion, leather goods, and home decor projects.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How is this fabric sold?
It is sold by linear meters. If you need 1 meter, select 1 unit in your cart; if you need 3 meters, select 3 units, and so on (you will receive a piece 3 meters long by 42 cm wide).
If I order multiple meters, will I receive the fabric cut?
No. All the meters you add are sent in a single continuous piece without cuts.
What needle and thread should I use to sew it?
We recommend using a standard denim or heavy-duty needle (size 90/14 or 100/16) and a high-strength synthetic thread (such as reinforced polyester or nylon).
Is it easy to cut and finish the edges?
Yes, it cuts cleanly with fabric shears or a rotary cutter. To prevent the cut edges from fraying with use, it is recommended to finish the edges with a hem, bias binding, or serging.
