Schreinering & Calendaring

At William Clark & Sons, our Schreinering and Calendaring techniques help elevate fabrics to new heights of quality, durability, and aesthetic appeal.

What is Schreinering & Calendaring?

Schreinering and calendaring is the process of passing material through rollers under heat and pressure.  The level of this from a light handle enhancement to a high sheen effect is determined by the machine settings, material characteristics and pre treatments.

Helping to create the perfect fully finished fabric

For years we’ve supported a range of clients with our mechanical finishing processes including schreinering and calendaring services. 

We support many clients with solutions for their fabric and this technique helps to:

  • Soften the fabric handle

  • Provide a sheen or polished effect

  • Close the construction of the fabric

  • Improve material drape
