Crypton Performance Fabric for Home
Crypton is an industry leader in manufacturing performance fabric. Primarily known for their stain and odor resistant commercial fabrics, their line of residential fabric for the home offers the same level of performance with decor-friendly designs and colors.
Crypton fabric is chemically coated with a proprietary mix of materials in an immersion bath after it was manufactured. It is then heat treated, ensuring that every fiber is coated in a stain, odor, and fade-resistant finish.
Once the whole process is complete, Crypton fabrics have the following capabilities:
- Stain resistant to all liquids including most oil-based liquids
- Odor resistant due to a treatment process involving fluorochemical and antibacterial agents
- 2 year fade resistant due to UV stabilizers being included in the refinement process
- Flame resistant
In the commercial setting, Crypton helps keep things clean, safe, and prevents the need to constantly replace upholstery. In the residential setting, it means that real, active families can have great upholstered furniture that can stand up to the normal wear and tear of a typical household.
Crypton customers don’t buy it for the designs, patterns, or colors (though we have a lot of options for those); they buy it for the peace of mind it offers. Once you have true stain and odor resistance, you can rest easy knowing that the kids, the pets, or the neighbors can’t do a thing to harm it.
