Polyester is a synthetic fibre widely used in furniture upholstery. It can be woven or knitted into fabrics with different textures, colours, patterns and performance characteristics.
Polyester upholstery is popular because it can offer good colour retention, versatility and relatively easy maintenance. It is also frequently blended with other fibres to achieve specific performance or tactile characteristics.
Actual durability depends on the fabric construction, fibre quality, weave, finishing and abrasion resistance.
