Why Sunbrella® Fabric?
Sunbrella performance fabric are made with Color to the Core™ technology. As a performance fabric industry pioneer, Sunbrella is always researching and developing new ways of bringing durability, comfort, and style to the places people live, work, and play. Sunbrella is committed to creating high-quality performance products that provide comfort for your coziest spaces, color retention for years of enjoyment, cleanability for all of life’s messes, and strength that lasts.
Our Color to the Core™ Technology
All Sunbrella fabrics are manufactured with Color to the Core™ technology. This proprietary process means each foundational fiber is saturated with color and UV-stabilized pigments. Once saturated, the proprietary fiber is spun into yarns which are then woven into our long-lasting performance fabric. Color to the Core™ technology ensures years of beautiful living with color that stays true over time, maintaining the strength and integrity of the fabric through years of cleaning, wear, and exposure to the elements.
The Sunbrella Fabric Difference
Complete Performance: Often imitated. Never duplicated.
Many products imitate the performance of Sunbrella’s fabrics with a “good enough” performance standard. However, none of these products offer the proprietary formulation, cutting-edge innovations, and extensive styles and textures. Fabrics are the complete performance standard, with best-in-class comfort, color retention, cleanability, and strength that lasts.
Comfort & Softness
With Sunbrella’s performance fabrics, exceptional comfort, and unmatched durability go hand in hand. Our complete performance makes the fabrics tough enough for the outdoors, and soft and cozy for indoors. Performance fabrics include many different weaves and surface textures, still meeting the overall intention: long-lasting softness and comfort. Our yarns have softness and durability woven into each fiber, which makes the performance fabrics perfect for creating comfortable spaces.
Cleanability
Sunbrella’s performance fabrics are easy to clean while maintaining the strength and integrity of the fabric. We call it worry-free livability. Many performance fabrics are simply regular fabrics with a protective surface finish. Complete performance does not rely on a finish which can wear off. Sunbrella engineers performance into the core of each fiber, including stain-resistant technology.
Color Stability
The performance fabrics are made of 100% solution-dyed acrylic. Our fibers are saturated with color and UV-stabilized pigments before they’re spun into yarn–meaning the pigment goes all the way through the fibers and the color stays true over time. This unique process makes Sunbrella-performance fabrics inherently fade resistant, UV protective and durable to the core; maintaining color and quality through cleaning, wear or exposure to outdoor elements.
Strength That Lasts
Sunbrella’s performance fabrics are engineered to last. Our fibers are mold and mildew resistant, stain and water resistant, and designed to stand all the tests of time. Regardless if you need fabric to stay strong in your living room, on your patio, or on your boat through the sun, rain, and storms, you can rest easy knowing the fabrics have strength that lasts.
