Fire Retardant Hessian Fabric, 170cm Wide, Charcoal

Hessian has long been the fabric of choice for sacks, bags and rugs, and this charcoal version keeps that heritage while adding a fire retardant treatment for modern safety requirements. Woven from natural jute fibre, it has the coarse, textured handle that gives hessian its distinctive rustic charm, and the deep charcoal shade suits contemporary interiors as well as traditional country settings. At 170cm wide, there is enough coverage to tackle larger projects without piecing narrower rolls together.

Beyond its traditional roots, this hessian fabric works well for craft projects, decorations, carpet backing, bunting, tablecloths, notice boards and sound insulation, making it a genuinely multi purpose material for homes, workshops and events. Wedding planners use it to add rustic warmth to table settings, while upholsterers rely on it as a sturdy underlay beneath softer fabrics. Because it carries a fire retardant treatment, it also suits commercial and hospitality settings where safety standards matter.
