Jute

Natural Fibre. Woven Character.

Jute wallcoverings bring warmth and natural texture to interior spaces through a distinctive woven surface. Derived from fibres of the Corchorus plant, jute has a long history as a material for textiles and woven applications.

Across a wall, the structure of the fibre becomes part of the design, creating depth, subtle tonal movement and a tactile quality that rewards closer inspection.

Texture, grain, fibre and subtle tonal variation give every natural material its individual character. Samples are the truest way to experience jute in your scheme.

01

A Natural Fibre

Jute is primarily associated with cultivation in regions including India and Bangladesh, where the fibre has been used for generations across textile and woven applications.

Within wallcovering, its character takes on a more refined expression. Individual fibres and the structure of the weave create a surface that feels organic and tactile while remaining sophisticated enough for considered contemporary interiors.

02

Character & Texture

The appeal of Jute lies in the relationship between fibre and weave.

Viewed closely, the construction creates fine changes in texture, depth and tone. From a greater distance, those details combine to form a more unified architectural surface.

This gives Jute a visual character that cannot be achieved by a completely flat printed finish.

03

From Earthy to Refined

Jute is naturally associated with warm, organic character, but colour can dramatically alter the way the material is experienced.

From deeper, more dramatic tones to pale and understated finishes, the woven structure remains central to the material. Colour changes its expression, while the tactile character of the fibre remains an important part of the surface.
