What are the types of sofa fabrics?

When we are faced with the choice of sofas, which type of sofa fabric is better? What are the categories of sofa fabrics? The following editor will take you to understand the classification and characteristics of sofa fabrics.

1. According to the raw material composition, there are cotton, linen, and chemical fiber. There are many kinds of chemical fibers, including polyester, acrylic, viscose, rayon, etc. Many chemical fiber fabrics are mixed with several components. As for silk and wool, they are very rare.

2. Plain woven fabrics. According to the dyeing method, there are dyed and yarn-dyed. Dyed means weaving the cloth first and then dyeing the color; yarn-dyed means dyeing the yarn first and then weaving. No matter what the composition of the cloth is, it can be made into dyed cloth or yarn-dyed cloth. Generally, monochrome is dyed cloth, and non-monochrome is all yarn-dyed cloth.

3. According to the type of yarn, there are spun suede chenille yarn, etc. Chenille is divided into coarse chenille and fine chenille. Suede is a kind of fabric that looks like suede. It is made of all polyester and is very common in the market. Chenille yarn is a relatively thick yarn that looks furry. The cloth woven with chenille is collectively called chenille. There are many kinds of ingredients. Polyester and viscose can be made into chenille. This kind of cloth is relatively thick and has a rough style. There are also many in the market. Common ones are suede, chenille, yarn-dyed fabric, pure cotton fabric, and linen fabric. These fabrics are not good or bad, but each has different characteristics. According to the price, for fabrics of the same weight, polyester is the cheapest, pure cotton is a little more expensive, and linen is much more expensive. However, many yarn-dyed fabrics or chenille fabrics are heavier and thicker, so the price will be higher.

Characteristics of sofas with different fabrics:

1. Pure cotton sofa: The fabric sofa made of pure cotton is soft and breathable, natural and environmentally friendly, very close to the skin, and is currently the model with the widest market share. Pastoral style is most used in pure cotton sofas. The price is cheap and the colors are the most diverse, but the elasticity is poor, it is easy to wrinkle, easy to dye, and less wear-resistant.

2. Flannel sofa: The most profound impression of a flannel sofa is its super delicate and gentle touch. From the corduroy in the past to the suede now, flannel sofas change their identities between vulgarity and elegance. Compared with other fabrics, flannel sofas are expensive. It has a fashionable appearance, good color rendering effect, dustproof, anti-fouling and other advantages, but it is easy to generate static electricity.

3. Linen sofa: The most charming thing about linen sofa is its good thermal conductivity. Even in the hot summer, there is no need to worry about sweating and sticky situations. The texture of the linen sofa is tight and soft, with moderate hardness and softness, and has a simple and natural temperament. It is relatively wear-resistant, not easy to wrinkle, not fade, not pilling, not generate static electricity, and will not mold in humid places.

4. Blended sofa: Cotton and chemical fiber blends can present the visual effect of silk, flannel or linen, but the pattern and color are not natural and pure enough, and the price is relatively cheap. In recent years, with the rise of differentiated chemical fiber and blended fiber, blended, coupled with the increasingly perfect dyeing and finishing technology, the soft feel and high simulation effect of blended fabrics are almost indistinguishable from the real thing. Easy to wash and iron, gorgeous color, strong and durable, elastic.
