I usually get my fabrics here http://www.extremtextil.de/catalog/Fabrics:::21.html
They sometimes have wider ripstops. At the moment they have a white 1.1 unprocessed ripstop nylon ,but I wouldnt trust that for a hammock.
What is the fabric for, if you dont mind me asking?
Fabric is for hammock.
The best place to buy wide hammock fabric is Ripstopbytheroll. I don't think you will have luck in Europe. I have been searching for a European source the last couple of years, and the sad truth is, there is nothing that can be even remotely compared to the US sources. Even with international shipping and customs, a larger order (~150 EUR because that's below the German customs threshold) works out cheaper by the meter. And the ripstop is much better suited for hammocks.

I would definitely contact Kyle at RSBTR, there is on online contact form on there web site. Because the material folds down so small it should be fairly easy and not that expensive to ship overseas. He uses USPS (us mail) and they have small international boxes that are not that much more then domestic shipping.
Look at the new 72" or XL fabric makes for a wide hammock!
I have made a few hammocks from this in black. http://www.extremtextil.de/catalog/R...sqm::2500.html They write its 150cm but the last two times i used it it was a lot wider. I cant remember exactly but i think it was 170cm.
This fabric will do but its not the best.
The fabric from Ripstopbytheroll and Dutch is much better!
If there is nothing left to learn it’s time to die.
Live and learn.
