Burlap Fabric

Burlap Fabric is a natural high tenacity material (is also commonly known as hessian) that was historically produced as a coarse cloth, but more recently it has been used in a refined state known simply as jute. Normally this fabric is found in natural color, but it can also be dyed.

Burlap is an environmentally friendly material that is a versatile product for home and garden, and is used to make bags, rugs and other products.
