Cotton canvas with Balmoral checks in maroon

The Balmoral Check Maroon cotton canvas is a premium decorative fabric that stands out for its elegant tartan-style checked pattern, consisting of horizontal and vertical lines of varying thicknesses in shades of maroon, burgundy and khaki green against a luminous natural beige background. Its classic, timeless design brings warmth, character and elegance, making it perfect for English-inspired, rustic, country and traditional interiors.

Part of the LINOTEC Premium collection, this high-quality cotton canvas is made up of 80% polyester and 20% recycled polyester, with a finish that replicates the natural feel and appearance of linen fabric. Its special width of 280 cm makes it easy to make up large-format pieces, whilst its weight (gsm) of 295 provides body and consistency for interior design and upholstery projects.

Particularly suitable for upholstering sofas, armchairs, lounge chairs and chairs, it offers excellent durability against wear and tear thanks to its 90,000 Martindale cycles.

Sewing and upholstery tip: use a needle for thick fabrics of 90/14 or 100/16 and durable polyester thread. As this is a checked pattern, it is essential to align the horizontal and vertical lines and match the pattern correctly when joining the pieces, particularly on backrests, seats and cushions. We recommend allowing for an extra margin of fabric to maintain the continuity of the checks and achieve a balanced, professional finish.

Washing and care: machine wash at a maximum temperature of 60 °C. Do not use bleach or whitening agents. Dry in the shade, avoiding direct exposure to sunlight. Do not iron, although soft ironing at a cool temperature is permitted. To preserve the printed design, it is recommended to wash on reverse.

Environmental commitment: contains 20% recycled polyester and uses sublimation printing, which requires no water during the printing process. A collection that combines design, durability and manufacturing with a lower environmental impact.
