Edmund Bell fabrics as made-to-measure fire retardant curtains

Edmund Bell is one of the UK's most established contract textile houses, best known for blackout, dimout and lining fabrics but with a full drapery catalogue of prints and wovens behind them. CreateFR is an Edmund Bell stockist and supplier: every fabric on this page can be ordered as a finished, made-to-measure curtain, priced instantly, or included in a project quotation alongside the other fabric houses we carry. If your specification names Edmund Bell, this is where to buy it made up.

What is in the Edmund Bell range

  • Blackouts and dimouts. The core of the house: technical blackout and dimout cloths for hotel bedrooms, student accommodation and healthcare, many in wide widths.
  • Decorative prints and wovens. Printed designs and subtle textures for hospitality, care and commercial schemes.
  • Acoustic and heavyweight qualities. Dense cloths that do useful work on sound in function rooms and open-plan offices.
  • Marine. IMO-certified qualities for cruise and ferry interiors.

Certification

Every Edmund Bell quality here is tested to BS 5867 Part 2, with Type B and Type C widely held. The range includes both inherently FR yarn-based fabrics and FR back-coated blackouts, where the coating that excludes light also carries the fire performance; the product page states which, along with the care guidance. Certificates are supplied with your order.

Edmund Bell FAQs

Do you sell Edmund Bell fabric and linings by the metre?

Online pricing is for finished curtains. For fabric or lining only, include the metreage in a quote request and we will price it.

Can an Edmund Bell blackout be used as a lining behind another fabric?

Yes; that is one of the house's main uses. Tell us the face fabric and we will make the two up together.

Can you supply an Edmund Bell fabric that is not listed?

Usually. Send us the range and colourway and we will confirm availability and lead time.
