Contact Fabric Search

How to Contact Us

Please contact us via our main website. You will find the Contact Us section at www.ApparelSearch.com/contact_us.htm, and that single page handles enquiries for the whole Apparel Search directory, including every Fabric Search guide. There is no separate Fabric Search inbox to find or remember: the September 2019 merger brought the fabric site onto ApparelSearch.com, and correspondence merged with it. Using the main contact page also means your message reaches the same small team that maintains the fabric pages, the fiber guides and the wider directory.

Before you write, it helps to know which page your message is about. Copy the address of the exact Fabric Search page — for example a specific fabric's mills or stores page — into your message, along with the name of the company or link involved. Directory maintenance is page-by-page work on a very large site, and a precise page address plus a company name lets a correction be found and checked quickly, rather than starting a search across thousands of listings that share similar names.

Listing Suggestions and Corrections

Suggestions are genuinely welcome, and the original Fabric Search pages said so repeatedly: if you know of an additional mill, wholesaler, distributor or fabric store that belongs in one of these guides, please let us know. The same applies to corrections. Fabric suppliers change names, move premises, close lines and let domains lapse, and readers working in the trade often spot a stale listing long before a periodic review does. A short message naming the page, the listing and what has changed is enough for the entry to be checked and updated or removed.

If you are suggesting your own company, say what you actually supply and at what level of the trade. Fabric Search pages are separated into mills, wholesalers and stores because readers use them differently, so a useful suggestion states whether you manufacture the fabric, distribute it wholesale or sell it retail by the yard, which fabrics you specialise in, and the website address you want listed. That keeps you off the wrong page, where your listing would reach the wrong audience and disappoint readers who followed it expecting a different kind of supplier.

What to Expect After You Write

Apparel Search is a directory, not a fabric seller, broker or agent. The team can add, correct or remove listings, fix broken links and improve guide text, but it cannot quote fabric prices, take orders, recommend one supplier over another for your specific project, or intervene in a dispute between a buyer and a supplier. If your question is about buying a particular cloth, the fastest route is almost always to contact the mill, wholesaler or store listed for that fabric directly, using the listing on the relevant Fabric Search page.

Messages are read and worked through as directory maintenance rather than as a helpdesk, so a reply may not be immediate, and straightforward listing fixes are often simply made without a long correspondence. If your enquiry is about Apparel Search more broadly — advertising, the main directory or the company itself — the same main contact page is still the right starting point, and the About Us section on ApparelSearch.com gives background on the Apparel Search Company, of which Fabric Search is a division. One contact route for the whole directory also means there is no wrong door: a message about a corduroy mill, a cotton price page or a fabric definition all land with the team that maintains those pages.
