Exclusive Fabrics

Our exclusive fabric ranges are the fabrics that we have milled especially for our stores, using natural fibres and our unique palette of TFS colours! We work with a handful of trusted companies to perfect these fabric ranges, and have developed these supply relationships with care and respect over many years. To ensure ongoing traceability and transparency, we ensure each partnership is founded on a clear understanding of our code of conduct, certification requirements, and the free flow of information regarding ethical manufacturing processes and locations. The quantity of milled fabrics we have available at any one time varies depending on the season, the speed of freight to our part of the world, the cost of raw materials, certification availability and many other factors.

Learn about each exclusive fabric range below, including supply chain information, certifications and inspiration for using the fabrics at home.
