Fabric Stiffeners
Textile Starch & Fabric Stiffener Sprays
Bring crispness, shape, and structure to your fabric projects with our premium Starches & Stiffeners collection. Whether you're quilting, sewing, embroidering, or crafting delicate lace, this range of textile firming agents helps you achieve a polished, professional finish.
Our fabric stiffeners and starch sprays are specially formulated to provide temporary or semi-permanent support — ideal for collars, cuffs, pleats, doilies, and any part of your project that needs extra body without compromising softness. Starching not only enhances the texture and appearance of your fabric by making it smooth and glossy, but it also helps protect against dirt: as fabrics become washed, dirt clings to the starch layer rather than the fibres themselves.
Why Use Starch or Stiffener?
-
Shape retention: The stiffening agents deposit a thin film on each fibre, creating a cohesive bond that locks the threads in place. This helps your fabric hold tailored forms like pleats and structured trims.
-
Improved ironing: With a starch finish, ironing becomes smoother, faster, and more effective. Once applied and heat-set, fabrics stay crisp and polished.
-
Temporary finish: Most of these starches and sprays offer temporary stiffening, meaning the finish can be rinsed or washed out, making it perfect for delicate or wearable items.
-
Versatility: Suitable for a range of natural fibres (like cotton and linen) — and even delicate fabrics — depending on the stiffening agent you choose.
-
Safe and easy to use: Our products deliver firming power without harsh chemicals, offering a convenient, craft-friendly way to structure your fabric.
