Our fabrics protect and defend against stains, spills and odors and never leave a mark on the environment.
In addition to weaving the best performance fabric in the design industry, we promise to be the best in sustainability. Our textiles are PFAS-free and made responsibility solidifying our commitment to continuously innovate the highest quality upholstery fabric with the lowest environmental impact.
We are not about more chemistry, we are about more responsible technology.
Less is more:
Our patented technology is customized to each and every yard of fabric to deliver the highest performance with the softest hand. Our team of scientists calibrate the amount of protection needed based on the fiber content and texture of each fabric, with less being more responsible to our end-users and the environment.
To further certify transparency and material reporting, Crypton works with Toxnot and other third-party organizations such as Mindful Materials to ensure that all customers who use our upholstery fabrics — whether for healthcare, hospitality, or residential use — we want our customers to understand exactly what they’re receiving as a final product. We seek to educate and empower consumers with new knowledge so they can make truly informed decisions within their design process.
We create gorgeous, livable fabrics for the rooms where memories are made. There are soft velvets, elegant linens, genuine leather, chunky wovens, cool natural fibers and more, all with permanent stain and odor protection. Our smart, environmentally responsible fabrics are easy to find fabric and top furniture retailers and to-the-trade showrooms.
