So, What Is a High-Performance Fabric?
What Makes it High-Performance? High-performance fabrics are made to stand up to frequent use while maintaining their good looks. Typically, they're woven with advanced fibres or treated with protective finishes to help resist stains, repel moisture, and make cleaning easier. And unlike the stiff or scratchy performance fabrics of the past, many modern versions are soft, breathable, and beautifully designed for everyday living.
It’s worth noting: Not all performance fabrics are created the same. Some are fade-resistant or mildew-resistant, while others are more tailored toward indoor high-traffic applications. Always check the Product Details & Care section on our website to find out what’s best for your specific project.
