🪡 7oz Hessian Cloth – 40″ Wide

Open Weave Scrim Hessian for Hair, Coir & Upholstery Fillings


Light, flexible, and easy to handle — our 7oz Open Weave Hessian Cloth (also known as scrim hessian) is designed for use as a covering layer over natural fillings such as hair or coir in traditional upholstery.

The looser 7oz weave makes this fabric ideal for shaping around curved frames and complex contours, allowing breathability while keeping stuffing securely in place.
It’s particularly suited for the final scrim layer over hair or fibre before the top fabric is applied, creating a smooth, stable surface without adding bulk.

Made from 100% natural jute, this lightweight hessian is both eco-friendly and easy to work with, offering the perfect balance between structure and flexibility. Whether you’re restoring an antique chair, upholstering a seat, or rebuilding a sprung deck, Foam4U’s 7oz Scrim Hessian delivers dependable trade quality every time.
