The WATER-REPELLENT textile benefit in upholstery refers to a fabric feature that makes it resistant to liquids, fluids, dust, and accidental splashes, providing added protection against stains and spills. Textiles with this protection are treated with special finishes and coatings or developed with specific textile constructions that create a protective layer over the fibers, preventing liquids like water, coffee, or wine from penetrating the fabric.

Key features of WATER-REPELLENT TEXTILE BENEFITS:

• Stain and spill resistance: Liquids remain on the surface, allowing them to be easily wiped or shaken off.
• Increased durability: By preventing liquids from penetrating the fibers, the furniture’s structure and appearance are preserved, extending its lifespan.
• Easy care: Furniture upholstered with water-repellent fabrics requires less deep cleaning; generally, a surface wipe is enough to remove recent spills.

This benefit is especially valuable for outdoor furniture, high-traffic areas, homes with children or pets, and commercial spaces like hotels and restaurants, where greater durability and easy maintenance of furniture are desired.
