You can send me your ribbon and I can pleat it. Also this is not limited to ribbon, I can pleat lace, bias or fabric for trimmings on clothing.
I can make box pleat, elizabethan ruffle pleat, and regular pleated ribbon.
Prices start at :
$3.20 per pleated meter for box pleat
$3.50 per pleated meter for standard knife pleating
$4 per meter for elizabethan ruffle pleat
$3 per meter for wide ribbons standard pleat
Other pleat types will be quoted for larger width ribbons on enquiry as the pleat depth may need to differ to accomodate.
*Discounts will be given for longer lengths to be pleated as setting the pleating machine up for different pleat styles, ribbon types and colours/thread changes can take some time for small amounts of ribbon.
How much will you need to send to be pleated? Usually knife pleat averages 4 meters of ribbon to make 1 meter of pleated, dependant on the thickness and stiffness of the ribbon. For good quality satin ribbons the following apply: Box pleat averages 3.5 meters of plain ribbon to make 1 meter of box pleat. Elizabethan ruffle pleat takes an average of 7 meters of ribbon to make 1 meter of pleat. However these measures are only an indication as softer or thinner ribbon often requires more to make a nice pleat.
