What is the best fabric for outdoor furniture ?

Landscape architects, designers, realtors, and building contractors all agree that regardless of the price point on a home, outdoor living spaces have become a standard feature in new home construction. The trend is to create an outdoor living area that mimics indoor living.

Outdoor kitchens vary from a built in grill to fully functioning kitchen spaces that may include refrigeration and brick ovens. What outdoor space would be complete without a television and a sound system as well as a fireplace or at least a cozy fire pit?!

With all these outdoor living areas, comfortable seating is essential. Think of the seating as an expansion of what you would have inside your home... comfortable dining chairs, a sofa or a sectional. The difference is that the seating is made of materials that can withstand the outdoor elements. Harsh sunlight, temperature extremes, water and humidity that contribute to mold require special fabrics engineered for outdoor living.

Revolution Outdoor is the perfect fabric for your outdoor furniture and entertainment areas. With a 5 year warranty, PFAS free liquid repellent finish, that's also mold, mildew, and UV resistant, Revolution Fabric is the best choice for outdoor cushions for your outdoor furniture. 

Revolution Outdoor Features & Benefits

  • All Revolution Outdoor patterns have a minimum of 1,500 hours of lightfastness. Lightfastness is the measure of how much sun/light exposure a fabric can withstand before it starts to fade. Revolution has a higher lightfastness than many other outdoor fabrics in the marketplace.
  • The fabric has a liquid repellent water-based finish; meaning, it will repel water and is mildew resistant. This also allows the fabric to dry quickly.
  • Revolution Outdoor contains NO PFC chemicals, which is a constant feature of all Revolution fabrics.
  • Revolution Outdoor is also inherently stain resistant and very easy to clean. You can follow the Revolution cleaning instructions here.
