The most trusted performance fabric on the market is Crypton, and it’s the upholstery fabric interior designers reach for when they want a room that looks incredible and can handle real life. Rooms are meant to be lived in, and that’s why we are considered the designer’s not-so-secret weapon. It’s meant to be sat on, spilled on, and napped on because a homeowner shouldn’t have to choose between a beautiful space and a durable one. Our performance fabric does both.
We didn’t stop at hardworking. We weave stain-resistant upholstery fabric in colors, textures, and patterns for just about any room, any mood, and any situation. To find Crypton, be sure to ask for us by name when shopping at your favorite furniture or fabric store. Whether you are a designer sourcing for a client or a homeowner who just fell head over heels for a pet-friendly couch, Crypton is closer than you think.
