FAQ
Q: What is the best fabric for upholstery?
A: This is a question based on the upholstering project at hand. Some fabrics will be better suited than others. For example, some prefer the use of natural fabrics (like cotton and silk) instead of synthetics (like nylon and polyester).The best base for general upholstery is polyester, which is often blended with other fibers to be more resistant to fading or wrinkles. It’s ideal for daily living—think couches, dining room chairs, etc.—because of its durability. Ensure you choose 100% polyester to reap the benefits of its time-tested strength. Blended polyester fabrics can also be used for heavy-duty needs.
Q: What is the most durable fabric for a sofa?
A: If you’re re-upholstering a sofa, you need a fabric that will do well with high traffic. We recommend cotton, canvas, or linen for these projects. Ensure you choose a fabric with a tight-knit weave, as this will help keep liquid, dirt, and other debris from penetrating the fabric. If durability is your primary concern, choose canvas. While you sacrifice the softness of cotton and linen, you will get incredible durability. It’s perfect for outdoor sofas and furniture.
Q: What is an upholstery fabric?
A: Upholstery fabric is mainly used in furniture. These fabrics or textiles are specially woven to improve durability over time. Upholstery fabric is found on couches, chairs, ottomans, throw pillows, outdoor furniture, and much more. There are varying degrees of this woven quality, from light to heavy-duty traffic. For heavy-duty needs, the weave is tightly knit to prevent liquid, dust, dirt, and other debris from working their way into the fabric. This helps preserve the longevity of your furniture fabric, thus the lifespan of your furniture as a whole.
Q: Is twill fabric good for upholstery?
A: Yes! Twill is a cotton fabric beloved for its durable nature and ability to withstand damage like stains, dirt, spills, and other everyday accidents. From sofa slip covers and throw pillows to chairs and duvets, twill can truly do it all. This fabric can even be used for personal items like tote bags, aprons, lunchboxes, and so much more.
