Wooden buttons give a garment a warmth and natural character that is hard to achieve with any other material. Polkom manufactures buttons in 100% natural wood – boxwood, olive wood and rosewood, as well as in timber grown specifically for industrial use. Every button has its own natural grain and is, at the same time, responsibly produced – whether you need wholesale wooden buttons from our styles or custom wooden buttons to your own design.
Wood with character
- Boxwood – a dense, hard wood with a fine, even texture and a pale yellow tone. Very strong and well suited to thinner buttons with crisp edges.
- Olive wood – a warm tone with striking dark veining. Every button is unique – ideal for premium collections.
- Rosewood – a darker, rich wood with a noble sheen, well suited to coats and jackets.
You can read more about the properties of different woods in the article Types of wood for buttons.
Styles: any shape, holes and shanks
We produce wooden buttons in any shape and size:
- with a flat or raised rim;
- with a dished centre (saucer style) or a double rim;
- flat buttons without a rim;
- with 2 or 4 holes, including a groove between the holes for a less visible stitch;
- with a shank underneath – for coats and jackets, where the button needs to sit above the fabric.
We can also make a button to your sample or drawing, with your logo laser-engraved – see wooden buttons with a logo.
Wood buttons for clothing: ideal for wool and eco collections
Wooden buttons are a natural partner for wool, tweed, linen and knitwear. They are light, never feel cold to the touch and underline the natural look of the fabric. That is why they are a favourite for wool coats, cardigans, jumpers and every collection built around sustainability – wood is a renewable material. For knitwear, the article wooden buttons for knitwear, cardigans and jumpers will also be useful.
