Materials play a huge role in fashioning an outdoor living space that is both stylish and functional. Of all the decisions you will make in your outdoor space, one of the most important is selecting your fabric for your cushions and pillows. It has a significant effect on the durability, comfort level, and beauty of your outdoor haven. In this article, we will discuss in detail how Sunbrella stands out from other ordinary outdoor fabrics, so you can choose wisely.

Traditional Outdoor Fabrics: The Challenges
While traditional outdoor fabrics have been used for years, the vast majority of them just don't compare to Sunbrella in terms of performance and lifespan.
Fade and Wear: Most untreated outdoor fabrics will fade, discolor, and wear out under direct sunlight or weather conditions. This can significantly shorten the lifespan of your outdoor cushions and throw pillows.
Water Repellency Issues: Classic fabrics often lack the repellency to rain and moisture, which may ultimately result in mildew, staining, and discomfort.
Limited style options: Most traditional outdoor fabrics have limited color and pattern options, making it difficult to create a stylish, harmonious outdoor space.
Knowing the Right Fabric for Your Outdoor Oasis
Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference when making a final decision between Sunbrella and just plain old outdoor upholstery fabric. If one wants something tough, resistant to the elements, and stylish in a quick sentence, then Sunbrella will obviously be the way to go.

Caring for Your Sunbrella Cushions

Storage: Always keep the cushions in a cool, dry area of the house when not in use. If possible, store them in storage bags to help keep dust and dampness at bay.
Shade Protection: While the fabrics are good at resisting the sun, they have Sunbrella fabrics; however, in general, they will fade with extended direct sunlight. Consider using protective covers or storing cushions indoors during idle times.
By following these few simple care tips, you can extend the life of your Sunbrella cushions and continue to enjoy their beauty and comfort for years ahead.
The Science Behind Sunbrella: A Closer Look
Sunbrella fabric is the result of years of research and development. Solution-dyed acrylic fibers are created, with color added during manufacturing rather than as a surface coating, resulting in extraordinary colorfastness and fade resistance.
Besides the water-resistant factor, Sunbrella fabric is treated with a special finish that repels water, allowing it to bead off and preventing moisture from penetrating the fiber. This technology will ensure that your cushions stay dry and comfortable in the face of some very hostile weather conditions.
Understanding the technology behind Sunbrella will help you see why these fabrics boast outstanding performance and exceptional durability.
