All Boon & Up fabric is handwoven to a width of 110cm, and is 100% combed cotton, hand-grown by smallholder African farmers. Boon & Up fabric is tough, it passes 45,000 rubs on the Martindale test, however due to the way it is woven on traditional looms we highly recommend that our fabric is knit backed for any upholstery projects. This is a relatively inexpensive process, please get in touch with us for recommendations of companies that perform this task in your region.
Boon & Up fabric has also passed the flammability ‘cigarette test’ (BS5852:Part 1:1979:Source 0).

All our fabrics tell a story.
Wooden flutes, fashioned out of native sigthr trees, accompany xylophones as they are played at important events in our district in rural north Ghana. To hear an ensemble of flutes and xylophones play as dawn breaks over a village will signify the passing of a member of the community during the night.
