Tips to Choose Upholstery
When we talk about upholstery, it
refers to the materials used to stuff and cover seats, couches, chairs,
and sofas. Upholstery includes a variety of materials like leather and
vinyl, foam and cotton padding and many more. It is not very easy to
choose a particular upholstery fabric for your furniture when you have
hundreds of varieties to choose from.
We give below a few easy ways that you can consider while buying
upholstered fabric.
- It is better to consider those fabrics with higher thread
count and a tighter weave because they are more durable.
- Fabrics made of natural fibers absorb stains more quickly
than man-made fabrics, but natural fibers clean up better. On
the other hand, fabrics made with man-made fibers are
soil-resistant but they do not clean up well.
- Highly-textured fabrics like tweeds can fray easily when they
are used excessively. The fabrics which stand up best to fraying
are those with flat weaves like cottons or jaquards.
- While dark colors show debris and dirt, light colors show
soil. So try a medium color with a pattern.
- Try to buy washable slipcovers for your sofa . This will
extend the wear of the sofa and chair.
- If possible, go for an upholstery with a special treatment
like
- Fireproof
- Anti-stain
- Anti-humidity
- Anti-wrinkle
- Anti-mould
- Lengthen the life of your upholstery by simply vacuum
cleaning.
- Always save the manufacturer's tips for cleaning your
furniture and upholstery.
