All about performance fabrics

Cat-friendly

Durable and tightly woven, these fabrics are less likely to snag — making them perfect for big scratchers. The tighter weaves also keep cat hair on the surface for easier clean up.

Dog-friendly

Durable and stain-resistant, dog-friendly performance fabrics are easy to clean and maintain their texture and quality over time. Dogs come in all shapes and sizes, so connect with a Design Expert if you need more guidance!

Kid-friendly

Made with non-toxic materials and a stain-resistant coating, these fabrics are every parent’s dream. They’re safe for kids to lounge and play on, and still look high-quality and luxurious.

Liquid-resistant

These fabrics are treated to resist liquid, making it harder for spills to penetrate the fibers and stain the fabric. However, these fabrics are not fully liquid-repellant, and still may require upholstery cleaner on tougher stains.

Machine washable

These beautiful fabrics can be washed on a delicate cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Hang to dry or tumble on low. All of our cushion covers are removable, but not all are machine washable. Take note of the cleaning codes on the Swatch Store!

Oeko-Tex® Certified

This certification is received after careful testing to ensure each fabric is free from any harmful chemicals or toxins. We’re proud to say that more than 85% of our Performance Fabrics have this certification.
