Outdoor living is becoming a focal point in today’s home as a place to regularly entertain friends and family.
Just a few of their cute styles
As outdoor living becomes more intertwined into everyday life, consumers have an increasing desire to customize these outdoor areas with furniture to match their personal style. Customized cushion covers are a versatile option that can add flair and color to these outdoor areas.
Outdoor fabric selection is as important as design and color, varying in type and quality. Research and choose what works best for your outdoor living area:
Solution-dyed acrylic: The fiber is first dyed with acrylic pigments before being turned into yarn and woven into cloth. Solution-dyed acrylic material is unique in that the color goes all the way through the material. It is less susceptible to fading, wear and tear, and in some cases can be resistant to bleaching.
Acrylic coated polyester: This type of material is commonly used for grill covers, boat covers, awnings and umbrellas. It has a tough exterior and is resistant to fading, mold and mildew. An acrylic finish is applied to the material making it extra durable.
Vinyl coated or vinyl coated synthetic fiber mesh : When a vinyl coating is applied to a material it creates a strong and flexible finish. The material is able to withstand stains, sunlight, water and mildew. It is easier to wipe clean but can feel like plastic against your skin.
With over 500+ colors and styles available Sunbrella® offers the most comprehensive and dependable line of outdoor fabrics. It’s nearly impervious to decay caused by sunlight and exposure to the elements. This solution-dyed acrylic material can even be cleaned with bleach.
