Upholstery Fabrics
2- Furniture is one of the basic requirements of
every house. Without furniture, no living place
is complete. It is an important component of our
houses, shops, offices, schools and every other
place where humans are found. In fact we cannot
live without furniture. To make the furniture
presentable, comfortable and durable upholstery
is used.
3Though the furniture is complete without it, but
it is a mere skeleton of wood which is the least
presentable to be kept in a drawing room or an
office. It is the upholstery fabric that makes
the furniture appealing and good looking. As a
basic definition, it is the fabric is the fabric
used to cover the wood of the furniture and make
it somewhat more presentable.
4- Upholstery is an old field and man has used
the upholstery fabric from the time when he made
the furniture for the first time. In this age,
the upholstery is one of the most important
components of home décor. The type of upholstery
chosen for a room or house shows the taste of the
home owner.
5Apart from the beauty, there is another thing
which must be considered while selecting an
upholstery fabric. The fabric must be durable
enough to withstand daily use and misuse. Some of
the best upholstery fabrics are listed below.
61.Leather
- Leather has been in the service of man since
very long. Leather may be produced by hides of
animals or by synthetic processes. Leather is so
far one of the most durable materials known to
man. It is graceful, durable and has a nice
touch. However, it is a bit costly so it is not
used for large applications like upholstery that
much. But once you get leather upholstery
furniture, it will last you ages.
7- It is a fabric of synthetic origin and is one of
the most used upholstery materials. It is rough
and tough, can be made fire proof and is
nonabsorbent. Spillage of water or any other
fluid is not an issue when you have vinyl fabric
upholstery in your room. It is mostly used in the
furniture that has to serve in public places
because rough use doesnt take much negative toll
on it.
- This fabric is also of a natural origin.
Derived from the fibers of the plant linen, it is
quite laborious top manufacture. It is known in
garments and upholstery for its soft and
comfortable touch. The fabric is also
considerably strong to last long.
84.Cotton Fabric
- Another fabric of the natural origin, cotton
fabric is also used for upholstery. However it is
not much durable and tough when used as pure
cotton. Cotton blended with synthetic fabrics
serves well in upholstery. It is characterized by
soft touch and a number of different printing
options available.
9Polyester
- As the name suggests it is a synthetic fabric.
It is made by chemical process without any
natural input. The fabric is widely used in a
number of applications including upholstery. Like
vinyl it is good for rough use and is not much
costly.
