Big News: Presencia Hilaturas Now Produces and Sells the Mez Sewing Thread Range
Share
We have some exciting news to share. Presencia Hilaturas has acquired the rights to produce and sell the Mez range of sewing threads — including Mez Cotton, Mez Duet, Mez Drima and Mez Nylbond. These trusted, much-loved threads now join our family, made and supplied with the same care and quality standards we put into every Finca product.
What this means for you
For decades, Mez has been a household name among sewists, dressmakers, quilters and crafters across Europe. By bringing the Mez sewing thread range under our roof, we can guarantee its continued production, keep it readily available, and offer it alongside our existing embroidery, crochet and yarn collections — all from a single, reliable source. Whether you sew by hand, at the machine, or work professionally, you can count on consistent quality and a complete palette of colours.
Meet the Mez sewing thread range
Each Mez thread is engineered for a particular job. Here is a quick guide to help you choose the right one for your project.
- Mez Cotton — a classic mercerised 100% cotton sewing thread with a soft, natural finish. It is the natural partner for cotton, linen and other natural fabrics, sits beautifully in patchwork and quilting, and withstands a hot iron with ease.
- Mez Duet — a corespun thread that wraps a strong polyester core in cotton, combining the resilience of synthetic fibre with the look and feel of cotton. It is a dependable all-rounder for synthetic and stretch fabrics, everyday garment construction and hand quilting.
- Mez Drima — a high-quality 3-ply 100% polyester all-purpose thread. Strong and flexible, it handles stretchy and varying-thickness fabrics with ease and is perfect for everyday sewing and quick repairs, from hemming to sewing on buttons.
- Mez Nylbond — a slightly elastic bonded nylon thread built for heavy-duty work. Its special bonded surface resists the heat generated in the needle eye, so it will not untwist or break under stress — ideal for jeans, leather, sportswear, upholstery and even jewellery making.
Quality you can trust
Taking on the Mez range is a responsibility we do not take lightly. Our commitment is simple: to keep these threads true to the quality that earned their reputation, while making them easier than ever to find. Expect the same smooth stitching, reliable strength and rich colour selection you have always associated with the Mez name.
