FAQs

What is the ribbon made of?

The Berisfords Velvet Ribbon is made from 100% nylon.

Can this ribbon be washed?

Yes, it is washable at 40 degrees Celsius.

Is the velvet finish on both sides of the ribbon?

No, this is a single-sided velvet ribbon, meaning the rich velvet texture is on one side only.

What are the typical uses for this ribbon?

It is ideal for garment accessories, household textiles, packaging, jewelry, shoe embellishments, and general craft projects.

How should I store the ribbon to maintain its quality?

Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve its color and pile.

Can I iron this ribbon?

Yes, if needed, iron on a low setting, preferably on the reverse side, to protect the velvet pile.

Is this ribbon suitable for outdoor use?

While durable, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh weather conditions is not recommended as it may affect the color and texture over time.

Troubleshooting

Velvet pile appears flattened or crushed

Gently brush the ribbon with a soft brush or steam lightly on the reverse side. Avoid ironing directly on the velvet pile at high temperatures.

Color appears different from expectation

Colors can vary slightly between batches and screen displays. Refer to official color swatches if exact shade matching is critical.

Ribbon frays when cut

Use sharp fabric scissors for a clean cut. For sewn applications, consider finishing the edge with a small hem or a zig-zag stitch to prevent fraying.
