Expert Tips on Selecting Durable, Stylish Fabric for Upholstery in Busy Spaces

When furnishing those busy spots around your home, picking the right fabric for upholstery is a game-changer. You want something that can handle the hustle and bustle while still looking fabulous. At Fabrics That Go, we understand this all too well.

Here are a few tips to help you choose the perfect upholstery fabric for your furniture in high-traffic areas.

Sunbrella Fabric for Upholstery in High-Traffic Areas

Think Durability

Choose fabrics that can handle heavy and frequent use. Opt for tightly woven materials designed to last, such as microfiber, leather, or durable synthetic blends.

At Fabrics That Go, we love Sunbrella fabrics. These durable, UV-resistant, low-maintenance fabrics are ideal for high-traffic areas and homes with kids and pets.

Stain Resistance is Key

High-traffic areas are magnets for spills and stains. Choose fabrics that are treated to resist stains or are easy to clean. Fabrics designed to repel liquids and resist stains are a smart choice. The water- and fade-resistant qualities of Sunbrella fabrics make them the perfect choice, even for poolside furniture.

Play with Color and Pattern

Colors and patterns can be your best friends when it comes to busy areas. Darker shades and intricate patterns are great at hiding dirt and wear.

Comfort and Style Matter

Just because a fabric is durable doesn’t mean it can’t be comfortable and stylish. Choose fabrics that aren’t only long-lasting but also cozy and chic. Whether you’re into modern, classic, or eclectic styles.
