How it works
From your brief to your door
- 01
Send your brief
Sizes, quantities, fabric ideas and your deadline. Photos, drawings or old covers all work. We reply the same day during business hours.
- 02
Approve the spec and quote
You get a spec sheet with every dimension and option, plus a project quote. Nothing is cut until you sign off. Order swatches if you'd like to see the fabric first.
- 03
We make it
A deposit starts production, which takes 2–3 weeks for standard shapes, 5–6 weeks for custom shapes made from your template, and 8–12 weeks for Ultraleather and Gabriel. Rush production is available for standard shapes. If anything slips, you hear from us before the date, not after.
- 04
Delivered, tracked and insured
The balance is due before dispatch. Delivery is free Australia-wide, and every parcel is tracked and insured. Covers and foam may arrive separately, and foam needs 12–18 hours to expand once unpacked.

Seat, back and outdoor foam for Australian orders is made in Australia by our partner Premier Group, with quick-drain foam for outdoor and marine cushions. For commercial spaces with fire-safety requirements, ask us for the fabric maker's published test results, including AS/NZS 1530.3 where the fabric has been tested. Full cleaning steps are in our FAQs.
