Sofa FAQs

While all sofa cover materials have pros and cons, there isn’t one sofa fabric to rule them all. With such variety in the textures, looks, durability levels and colours available, choosing a sofa material really just comes down to your personal preference.

The majority of our sofa fabrics are made from synthetic fibres like polyester, making them very easy to clean. If you’re going for leather and keeping it pristine is your thing, it’s best to go for a coated leather rather than a natural, uncoated leather - thanks to the sealing process, coated leathers are much better at repelling dirt and will be easy to wipe clean.

If you’re looking for a sofa that will stand up to real life, then many people opt for naturally hard-wearing leather; but when it comes to sofa fabrics, chenille, velvet and cord are also very durable options. While each has different qualities, they all offer a luxurious feel, with minimal maintenance, that will stand up to day-to-day life. For the ultimate in durability, explore our Resilience range - affordable faux leather and suede fabrics proven to stand up to pilling, abrasion, and busy family life. All Resilience fabrics are tested to higher international standards, both in strength and durability, and against wear and tear.

Fabric sofas are enduringly popular - and for many good reasons! Sofas upholstered in fabric are generally more affordable than leather sofas, making them a great option for those trying to furnish their home on a budget. Modern sofa upholstery fabrics can last just as long as leathers, and there are many more choices in textures, colours and looks than there are for leather sofas. From velvet to basket weave, boucle to jumbo cord; there’s a fabric sofa to suit your taste, and your family’s preferences.
