We're all good at something. At Camira we excel in textile design and we're experts in color. And we have an unrivalled breadth of manufacturing competencies going from yarn to fabric - knitted, woven, cut and sewn. We love what we do, creating interior experiences through textiles. And we like to share our expertise through continuing education and learning.

The perfect complement to our weaving expertise, this element of our advanced technological capabilities is one of our most groundbreaking innovations.

Bringing the craft of precision engineering to fabric solutions, and epitomizing the concept of bespoke design, each Camira Knit is made to perfectly fit the exact curves and contours of an individual product - delivering a zero-waste textile component which can be applied with exceptional ease of upholstery.

So, whether you’re a product designer with the grain of an idea, or a manufacturer with an existing chair frame, we can create the aesthetics, tension and texture that transforms furniture into a work of art - and delivers on comfort, form and function. 

Inherited from our roots as John Holdsworth & Co, founded in 1822, we're quite unique in being able to design and manufacture the full array of fabric material types which are used in mass passenger transport on bus, motorcoach and rail: face to face plush moquette, wire woven moquette, or flat-weave fabrics, as well as luxury leather and vinyl. We cover all material applications, including seating, curtains and ancillary trims.

We tend to take textiles for granted as they're such a fundamental part of our everyday lives. Delve a bit deeper and it's clear that there's a lot of valuable information about textiles which we're very keen to share to help furniture professionals and specifiers to become more textile savvy. Technical performance, trends, sustainability and eco-labelling are just some of the topics we can cover.
