Any recommendations for tapes? Looking for
- narrow, 10, 15, 20mm
- 'fine' plain weave, or grosgrain rib, ie looks quality
- basic colours, black olive, dark blue - ideally a colour-card/swatch book option
- 100m+
- matt
- nylon or polyester,
- wouldn't be load-bearing (well, the fabric will give up before the tape)
Everywhere I've looked is either, heavyweight ribbon which looks like it'd be for xmas presents, coarse polyprop for industrial/work webbing, or limited q's/expensive because it's deadstock. I've got some options in China, but high volume, and would prefer to start small and nimble with a UK source atm ....any help gratefully received :)

Sounds stupid, but have you tried facebook fabric groups? Usually resellers of imported webbing.
I've had webbing from this person before I think.

yes, great, good idea - and exactly that, an re-seller of a quality/volume source would be perfect. Thank you
