Materials and fabrics - suitable for Commercial / Aged Care
One of the most confusing aspects of choosing furniture is knowing what fabric is suitable for the environment. We have created this page to assist with your furniture choices.
Our furniture is produced in genuine and solid materials that not only give a warm and snug feeling but also lasts for decades. The choice of materials and fabrics is, of course, crucial for those who require easy cleaning yet appealing furniture which is something we ensure in our designs.
These fabrics offer a wide colour variety in various types of fabrics from vinyl through to Tritan and Crypton fabrics. We offer fabrics that are suitable for Aged Care facilities with anti-bacterial, anti-microbial, bleach cleanable and Fire Rating (FR) tested.
You are not limited to this selection - this is just to assist if you are new to choosing fabric for an aged care environment.
