Colour bonded into the fibre, not printed on top.
How reactive ink bonds with organic cotton, which materials and certifications sit behind every order, and how reactive compares with DTF, pigment and sublimation — the facts, not the brochure.

How do I place an order on Fabrixa's platform?
You place an order on Fabrixa directly through the platform, since Fabrixa is a self-serve platform with no separate sales step. Create an account and order yourself, with base fabric priced and ordered by the metre, and apparel or home textiles ordered by the piece. Production runs in Portugal, Spain and the Netherlands.
What is Fabrixa's typical dispatch window across its catalog?
Fabrixa's typical dispatch window is 2 to 9 business days across its catalog, made to order in Portugal, Spain or the Netherlands with no customs step for EU customers. The exact window depends on the product category, since sublimation, fabric, home textiles and apparel each run on their own production line. Every product page states its own dispatch window before you order.
Which fibres bond best with reactive dye?
Reactive dye bonds best with cotton and linen, the natural cellulose fibres that its chemical groups can attach to permanently. This is the core technique Fabrixa uses across its apparel, bedding and home-textile range, made in Portugal, Spain and the Netherlands. Sublimation is used instead on polyester products, such as bath mats.
Can I see fabric pricing before I order?
Yes, fabric pricing on Fabrixa is visible before you order, priced by tier so the cost is clear from a single metre upward. Pricing runs in tiers from Sample through Small run, Production, Scale and Enterprise, with sales involved only for fabric contracts of 500 metres or more. Every base fabric ships from Portugal, Spain or the Netherlands.
Does Fabrixa audit its production factories?
Yes, Fabrixa uses a short EU supply chain with audited factories rather than a long offshore one. Production takes place in Portugal, Spain and the Netherlands, keeping factories close to the markets they ship to. That shorter chain is easier to trace back to source than an intercontinental one.
Order from one metre and judge the print yourself.
Every base fabric ships from MOQ 1 with the same reactive process we run at scale, made in Portugal, Spain and the Netherlands. Price it by the metre or start an order today.
