Your outdoor furniture is an extension of your home—a place where you relax, spend time with friends and family, and celebrate the great outdoors. Naturally, you want it to stay beautiful and comfortable through all kinds of weather. That’s why high-performance Sunbrella fabrics for outdoor cushions not only look terrific, but our fabrics are made to withstand just about anything nature throws their way.


What type of fabric is best for outdoor furniture?
Sunbrella performance fabrics are the best options for your outdoor furniture, cushions, and pillows for a few key reasons. Sunbrella performance fabrics are made of 100% solution dyed Sunbrella acrylic. Sunbrella Acrylic is a great choice for outdoor furniture fabric because it is durable, easily cleanable, fade proof, water resistant and stain resistant. Sunbrella fibers are saturated with color and UV-stabilized pigments before they’re spun into yarn – so the pigment goes all the way through the yarn for color that stays true over time.


What is the most weather resistant/durable outdoor upholstery?
Sunbrella outdoor upholstery fabrics stand up to just about anything nature throws their way. Sunbrella performance outdoor fabrics are saturated with fade proof color, so they won’t fade in the sun. The acrylic fabric is weather resistant, with moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties.
