Connect each requirement to a clear review

Compare contract upholstery fabric by application, construction, appearance and the tests required by the project. A contract textile specification should also name quantity, color direction, care expectations and expected timing.

For performance upholstery fabric, start with the particular requirement: water handling, cleaning, pet-contact concerns or a named fire test. Use the relevant finish page to prepare the details, then bring the requirements together in one inquiry.

Bring the selected fabrics and requirements together before agreeing production. Finish suitability and performance are confirmed for the chosen quality and order.

Confirm suitability before production

A general solution category does not establish a test result for an entire fabric range. Confirm each performance requirement on the selected quality.
