What Kind of Fabric is Hessian?

Hessian, also known as burlap in some regions, is a woven fabric made from the skin of the jute plant or sisal fibres. It's characterized by its coarse texture and natural brown shade. Historically used for bags and sacks, Hessian fabric has now found its place in various crafts, décor, and upholstery projects due to its rustic appeal and overall durability.

Does Hessian Decompose?

Yes, Hessian fabric is biodegradable. Made from natural jute fibres, it decomposes over time when exposed to the elements. This eco-friendly attribute makes Hessian a preferred choice for those looking for sustainable fabric options. Despite its eco-friendliness, hessian is also extremely durable and is used in a wide range of applications.

What is the Difference Between Hessian & Jute Fabric?

While both Hessian and jute fabrics originate from the jute plant, the primary difference lies in their texture and use. Hessian is coarser and often used for sacks, crafts, and décor. On the other hand, jute fabric is finer and can be used for apparel and finer crafts. However, the terms are sometimes used interchangeably. Here at I Want Fabric, we can provide both hessian and jute hessian fabric for your projects.

What's the Difference Between Hessian & Burlap?

Hessian and burlap refer to the same fabric. The name varies based on the region. In the UK and other parts of Europe, it's commonly known as "Hessian", while in the US and Canada, it's referred to as "burlap".
