Madeira Classic Rayon 40 is a beautiful, high quality thread with exceptionally high sheen, an ideal choice for detailed digitised designs, monogramming, logos and free-motion hand-guided machine embroidery.
Madeira Rayon 40 is the world's leading machine embroidery thread. Designers love Madeira Rayon because of its natural glossy finish; machinists love the high production rate afforded by its flexibility and high tensile strength. Fewer thread breakages means less time taken with rethreading.
