When a linen look is not linen fiber
Write the visual look and the fiber as two lines. If the fiber is not flax, do not write linen as the composition. Use the commercial page for this cloth, then send the notes by Request With WhatsApp. Do not turn a sample description into a laboratory result.
Buyers often send one adjective and expect a full construction. The page already shows the family. This note only tells you which lines to add so the cut matches the job. Keep weight, width, and any test figure as targets you already hold, or leave them for the quality you select.
What should the brief say about appearance?
Write the visual look and the fiber as two lines. If the fiber is not flax, do not write linen as the composition. Put that observation in the first line of the request. Add the end use in the second line. If two cloths could be confused, name the one you want and the one you do not want.
| Write this | Leave this off the public page |
|---|---|
| End use and the cloth family | A test number you do not hold |
| The difference you need to see on the swatch | A storewide promise |
| Your target hand or construction | A quoted commercial term |
Read the swatch against the table when it arrives. If the face is right and the job is wrong, correct the line and ask for another cut. The linen look natural feel fabric page remains the commercial route.
What should the brief say about fiber?
Use a second line so the first observation is not asked to carry every detail. For a seat, say what the sitter touches. For a jacket, say shell, sleeve, or lining. For a pattern, say the panel size you need the repeat to fit. These are briefing notes. They are briefing notes only.
Link the request to Request Quote and Samples when you want the same fields collected on the site.
Are Haida fabrics fire-retardant or tested to a named flammability standard?
This article does not answer that test. A hand, a grid, a layer, or a pattern is not a flammability file. If you need a named standard, ask for that standard and the product scope on a separate line.
Send the notes with Request With WhatsApp. Start with the end use so the sample is cut for that use.
