PERFORMANCE UPHOLSTERY

What Is Performance Fabric? 

Performance fabrics are upholstery materials designed to provide enhanced durability, cleanability, and resistance to everyday wear. Depending on the specific fabric, performance characteristics may include resistance to stains, spills, moisture, fading, abrasion, or frequent cleaning. Performance fabrics are not fluid-proof and should not be considered a substitute for upholstery specifically designed for fluid or incontinence protection.
