About us
Crypton history
In 1993, Craig and Randy Rubin hatched an ingenious plan from the basement of their Michigan home. The super duo wanted a fabric that could stand up to life’s messes and still be touchable and beautiful, a fabric that would change the way many people live their lives.
Today, Crypton sells a wide range of products worldwide that make life easier and continue to exceed expectations. We are more than a fabric company. We have 27 years of innovation and industry experience, 15 patents, and branded the most reliable, environmentally friendly, high-performance textiles in the world.
Our products are not only soft and beautiful but are also designed to perform and have varying levels of protection depending on where they will be used. In situations where heavy demands can be placed on fabric, Crypton offers superior performance with exceptional protection from stains, moisture, and odors from water-based stains. Crypton also offers the assurance of antimicrobial (& stain-resistant) technology permanently bonded to the fabric, for the life of the fabric.
Not every situation demands so much from its fabric, so we developed a line of fabrics specifically for residential use, Crypton Home. Crypton Home is the perfect blend of beauty and durability, with the performance features of our Crypton Fabric, but tailored for use in the home. We partnered with Valdese Weavers to broaden our Crypton Home fabric product line and extend our reach within the residential market.
At Crypton, we’re passionate about living clean, so we aim to make cleaning easy and simple. Maintaining the beauty of upholstered furnishings hasn’t always been easy – until now!
