What is Bella-Dura fabric?
Bella-Dura is a high performance upholstery fabric that can be used for both indoor and outdoor applications. What sets Bella-Dura fabric apart is the cutting-edge manufacturing process that each yard goes through. There are two key components of all Bella-Dura upholstery fabrics that make it stand apart from the pack:
- Proprietary polyolefin fabric - polyolefin is a common polypropylene-based fabric widely used in high performance situations. It’s often used in active-wear, home upholstery and outdoor upholstery. Bella-Dura uses a proprietary polyolefin woven mixture in all of it’s materials formulated over decades of testing and research.
- Solution-dyed manufacturing process - Bella-Dura’s “solution-dyed” materials are unique in that color is added to the fibers while they are in their liquid state, so color permeates the entire fabric strand. Most performance fabrics will simply dye their materials after the fact, leaving the inside of the fabric susceptible to staining and color damage.
Both these components make Bella-Dura extremely stain-resistant and durable. You can clean Bella-Dura performance fabrics with bleach and it won’t impact the coloring. Bella-Dura’s light-fastness rating is in excess of 1,500 hours and it’s wearability exceeds 50,000 double rubs. It is inherently bleach-cleanable, anti-microbial and is available as Cradle to Cradle certified by MBDC. If that weren’t enough, Bella-Dura also strives to create the most beautiful fabric available in the marketplace. With an unlimited color palette and jacquard design capability, Bella-Dura creates distinctive fabric that is perfect for any indoor or outdoor decorating application.
