What are the best fabric type for scarf manufacturing?
For custom printed scarves, if you prefer a more matte fabric, we recommend our crepe de chine or silk twill. We say to opt for twill if you like a more textural or prominent weave.
If you prefer something that has more of a sheen, we recommend our crepe back satin.
If your print design features borders, we advise opting for a CDC or twill. The straight warp and weft properties of these fabrics allow us to manufacture perfectly straight scarves. With bordered artworks, the border is essentially acting as a ruler. So, any deviation in the cloth means that it will be very visible once cut and hemmed.
If you are perhaps after something softer, our cashmere modal works well for larger scarves.
Can I produce sustainable scarves at Forest Digital?
Yes, if you are looking to produce sustainable scarves, we have a wide selection of organic and sustainable fabric types for you to choose from.

What scarf hems are available?

How do I send my designs?
Send your artworks to us print-ready with a seam allowance of 1.5cm for panels. Please send your files to us via We Transfer at https://forestdigital.wetransfer.com
What is your minimum order quantity for scarf manufacturing?
For our bespoke scarf manufacturing service, we have a MOQ of 24 units and you can include a mixture of sizes, print designs, and artworks within this quantity.
What is your lead-time for scarf manufacturing?
We pride ourselves on our fast turnaround, from the day that everything is approved and ready to go, we will need around 4 weeks. This is the time we require to prepare the fabric type, print the fabric, cut, hem, and then send it to you. This turnaround time will vary on the size of the order, but it should never exceed 4-5 weeks.
What is the 10% fault rate for scarf orders?
Our 10% fault rate is applied to any scarf order that has panelled artworks as opposed to repeating artworks. If a fault occurs on a panel, the whole panel has to be discarded and reprinted or redone. Unlike a repeat print, where if a small fault occurs it can simply be cut around. Therefore, we will always print 10% over to cover the cost of any potential faults or marks that may arise. If your run is 100% successful, you will receive all of the extra printed panels or finished units.
What seam allowance should I leave if printing panels?
We advise you to add a 1.5cm seam allowance to each edge, so 90cm x 90cm would then become a 93cm x 93cm panel. This will ensure the scarves measure full size at 90cm x 90cm once finished.
