What you need to know about our Sunbrella® fabrics

Sunbrella® is founded on the belief that fabrics should be both beautiful and functional. Established in 1960, the company that started out by creating an innovative awning canvas is now world-famous for their indoor and outdoor fabrics of unsurpassed quality.
Sunbrella® textiles are made with close attention to design detail, and engineered with robust performance characteristics that provide resistance to fading and degradation from sunlight and chemical exposure.

And you wonder how that affects you? Oh, it’s a game-changer, alright.

Especially if you enjoy summer like we do.

Why makes Sunbrella® cool?

Firstly, we’d like to announce that we’ve partnered with Sunbrella®, so we’re able to customise your sofa covers with Sunbrella® fabrics that are exceptionally functional, comfortable, skin-friendly and beautiful.

Now, back to the reasons that Sunbrella® is cool:

Practicality. Spill-resistant. Easy clean. Withstands high traffic. This one’s for the people who love hosting parties for friends, family and even your neighbours. 

And we all know that at parties, the food and drinks are essential. Whether you love recreating your own party recipe or preparing snacks in general, there’s no need to be afraid of spilling on the couch when you have these Sunbrella® sofa covers.

The Sunbrella® fabrics’ liquid-resistant function means that liquids won’t be able to penetrate the material easily for a short period of time. When spills do happen, spot clean with a cloth and there is no need for washing the Sunbrella® sofa covers.

With its low to no pilling characteristics, there’s no need to worry about guests hopping on and off the couch throughout the day (or night).

Aesthetics. This season, we’ve got a range of neutral shades and geometric patterns from Sunbrella®, which go well with all sorts of home designs and add a touch of elegance to any space. 

You can enjoy looking at its colours under the shade, or even under the blazing sun. That’s because Sunbrella® fabrics are UV-resistant, so the colours won’t fade even after years of being out in the sun – guaranteed by Sunbrella®’s 5-year warranty.

If you’re one who likes to lounge outdoors in the summer heat, it’s going to be the Sunbrella® couch covers for you. 

Plus point: Sunbrella® is mildew-resistant, so humidity from the rain or small splashes coming from the pool wouldn’t be able to cause mould to grow on your couch.

Skin-friendly. This is an important factor when it comes to taking care of your family’s health. Young kids tend to have sensitive skin and if they’re spending a lot of time on the couch, then a skin-friendly couch cover would ensure that their skin does not come in contact with harmful chemicals.

Our Sunbrella® couch covers have all been certified with the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 label, which means that every component of this couch cover, such as threads and buttons, has been tested to verify that they’re harmless to human health. 

The Sunbrella® Canvas and Fretwork fabrics both have the Greenguard certification, which are given only to products with low chemical emission because they don’t pollute indoor air. That’s just another step to keep your family safe and healthy.

If that’s not enough, our Sunbrella® Canvas Antique Beige also has the Seal of Recommendation from The Skin Cancer Foundation. That means that the fabric is recommended by the foundation as part of a complete sun protection regimen to aid in preventing sun-induced skin damage.

As the summer fun begins, keep your worries away with these new Sunbrella® couch covers. It’s a way of protecting the people that you care about in your home.

What is The Summer Vibes Collection?

The Summer Vibes Collection is our new couch cover collection made exclusively for Summer 2023. We’ve curated this collection to make sure your summer days on the couch are easy, worry-free and comfortable – backed by the great performance features of our summer fabrics.

Although they’re called “The Summer Vibes Collection”, these new couch covers can be used both indoors and outdoors. Or should we say, wherever the sun shines.

What do we mean by performance?

It means all of these:

High traffic
Get on and off the couch; jump on it as many times you want. The couch covers are practically abrasion-resistant.

Colour-fastness
Unlikely to fade or transfer colours to other fabrics (ie: jeans).

Low/No Pilling
When rubbed against other materials or fabrics, little balls of fabric don’t build up easily.

Easy-clean
No need for washing, just spot-clean spills or dirt.

Warranty
All fabrics come with either a 1-year or 5-year warranty.

Stain-resistant 
Food or liquid spills will not leave a stain easily on your couch. Even if it happens, they come off easily with a simple swipe of a cloth.

Spill-resistant
Liquid droplets will roll off the fabric without penetrating the fabric easily.

Mildew-resistant
Resistant to the growth of mould.

UV-protection
The colours on the fabric will not fade even after years under the sun.

Flammability Test
Under a test where a cigarette butt was smouldered against the fabric for more than 45 minutes, the fabric did not catch fire.

Certification
OEKO-Tex® Standard 100
Every component of this fabric has been tested to verify they’re free from harmful chemicals.

Greenguard 
The fabric has low chemical emission and doesn’t pollute the indoor air.

Seal of Recommendation by The Skin Cancer Foundation
The fabric is recommended by the foundation as part of a complete sun protection regimen to aid in preventing sun-induced skin damage.

The Summer Vibes Collection fabrics are the perfect and only fabrics you need for this season. 

Let’s dive into the details of each type of fabric we have in the collection, shall we?

The Sun Care+ Series

Rain or shine, the Sun Care+ Series couch covers will be by your side. It’s ever-ready to serve you all year long, indoors and outdoors – the kind of loyalty that’s hard to come by.

Performance Tweed

Under the Sun Care+ Series, the Performance Tweed has 7 fun shades you need for the summer feels, and it’s great for both indoor and outdoor use. Using 1 thread or a combination of 2 different coloured threads, the tightly woven Performance Tweed is a couch cover that adds a vibrant texture to your couch.

Who is it for?

If you’re a fan of bright, bold colours, then the Performance Tweed will not go wrong. Whichever colour that you choose, it will be able to liven the space in an instant. This summer fabric also makes a great match for accent furniture.

If summer vibes remind you of the deep blue ocean, let the Performance Tweed Teal take you there with its blend of deep blue and green.

Also in the category of blue, we have the Performance Tweed Mineral Blue that’s lighter, like a pale blue lake.

Yellow is an energising colour, and we’ve got that on our Performance Tweed Amber to make your summer even brighter than it already is.
