What fabric is best for theatre backdrops?
The most commonly used are plain polyester (affordable, many colours), flannel (soft, non-reflective) and satin (for a more reflective finish). Rustic, natural-look fabric also works well for certain sets.
Is polyester fabric suitable for photography backdrops too?
Yes. Plain polyester is one of the most popular choices for backdrops and photography — lightweight, pattern-free and available in over 30 colours. The 3m-wide version can cover large areas without seams.
What's the minimum order for backdrop fabric?
1 metre, cut to the exact length you need for your set or backdrop.
Can I order large quantities for productions?
Yes. Fabric is available by the metre and by the roll — for large quantities, contact Texland to check stock and delivery options.
