What is Olefin?
When choosing textiles for your outdoor furniture, the quality and durability of the material is crucial. Olefin is a synthetic fiber known for its excellent properties for both indoor and outdoor furniture. It is lightweight, durable and resistant to moisture, sunlight and stains, making it a great choice for those who want furniture that will last for many years.
Benefits of Olefin in furniture fabrics
Olefin has many benefits that make it popular for garden furniture in particular:
- Water-repellent properties - Olefin does not absorb water, making it weather resistant to rain and moisture. This significantly reduces the risk of mold and mildew.
- UV resistance and color fastness - The material is UV resistant, which means it won't fade or degrade quickly even after prolonged exposure to sunlight.
- Durability and abrasion resistance - Olefin is extremely durable and can withstand daily use, even in challenging environments.
- Easy maintenance - Stains and dirt can be easily removed with a damp cloth.
