Fabric sample Imo Black Porphyria (IMO 60)

The most frequently chosen upholstery fabrics are woven fabrics, velours and chenilles. Woven fabrics have a strong, visible weave, velours are soft and fluffy, while chenilles have a thick texture and a characteristic yarn that is pleasant to the touch.

Densely woven fabrics and chenilles made from synthetic fibres such as polyester and polyamide are considered among the most resistant upholstery materials. Their strength is increased by a compact construction, protective coatings and a high Martindale test result, often reaching 50,000–100,000 cycles.

Choose an upholstery material to suit how the furniture will be used and the needs of your household. With children or pets, velours and flock with a water-repellent coating work well, as they are easier to keep clean. Woven fabrics are durable, while bouclé stands out for its striking looped texture. When choosing, also check abrasion resistance, water repellency and the Pet Friendly label.

The latest upholstery trends feature bouclé, velour, velvet, corduroy and nubuck. Fabrics with a soft, three-dimensional texture that add warmth and character to a room are popular choices. Recycled materials and fabrics with an easy-clean finish are also growing in popularity.

There is no single universal sofa fabric, as the choice should reflect your lifestyle and how the furniture will be used. The most durable options include dense woven fabrics, modern velours with a water-repellent coating, genuine leather and special materials resistant to snagging and pet claws.

Plush is a soft fabric covered with a short layer of fibres forming a delicate pile. It stands out for its fluffiness, subtle sheen and pleasant-to-the-touch surface, and its characteristic pile is created during weaving using an additional warp or weft.

When choosing a sofa, pay attention to its dimensions, how it fits your interior, comfort and the type of filling. A sturdy frame, a sleeping function and storage also matter, as does durable, easy-to-clean upholstery suited to your everyday needs.

For a sofa, choose fabrics weighing 300–500 g/m², as they provide adequate thickness and strength. The quality of the upholstery, however, also depends on the density of the weave and the material's high abrasion resistance.

Current trends are dominated by sofas in warm, natural colours such as beiges, sandy shades, greige and off-white. Bolder colours, including bottle green, sage and olive, are also attracting a lot of interest.

Plush is a soft, warm and elegant material that works well in living rooms and bedrooms. It is widely used for upholstering furniture and making curtains and clothing, although before choosing it you should also consider its less practical features.

Imo Czarna Porfiria is the variant with the code IMO 60. It is a very dark colour option from the Imo collection, so it is worth seeing a swatch in real life before choosing upholstery. This helps you better judge the shade in daylight and artificial light and match it with the other elements of your interior.

Imo Czarna Porfiria is a plush, textured fabric. Its surface therefore has a more pronounced texture and is not completely smooth. This finish is worth checking on a swatch, as the texture of the material affects how it looks and feels.

The 100% PES label means the fabric is made entirely of polyester fibres. The composition should be assessed together with the material's performance parameters. Imo Czarna Porfiria achieves 80,000 abrasion resistance cycles and a rating of 4–5 in the pilling test, which helps you better judge how it will behave in everyday use.

Imo Czarna Porfiria weighs 380 g/m² with a tolerance of ±5%. This parameter indicates the mass of one square metre of material and helps compare fabrics of different construction. Combined with the plush, textured surface, it gives a better picture of the material's character before you choose upholstery.

The fabric achieves 80,000 cycles in the abrasion resistance test. This is an important parameter for upholstery materials, as it shows their resistance to the repeated friction that occurs when the furniture is used.

Its pilling resistance is 4–5. This is a very good result, meaning the material has little tendency to form bobbles on its surface. This parameter is particularly important for the upholstery of furniture used regularly.

In the colour fastness to rubbing test, the fabric scored 5 dry and 4–5 wet. This means very good dye resistance during everyday contact and rubbing, including in damp conditions.

The fabric's light fastness is rated 4. With such a dark shade, it is also worth checking the swatch where the furniture will stand, as the same colour may look slightly different depending on the type and intensity of lighting.

The fabric combines a textured, plush surface with high resistance to abrasion and pilling. It achieves 80,000 abrasion cycles, a pilling rating of 4–5 and very good colour fastness to rubbing. These parameters are particularly important when choosing upholstery for furniture intended for regular use.

A swatch lets you assess the true colour, texture, weave and thickness of the material in your own home. You can compare it with your floor, walls, curtains or other furniture and see how the fabric looks during the day and after dark. At Pillovely you can order up to 5 swatches completely free of charge.

Fabric from the Imo collection is available, among others, on the Gory divan bed with storage. Ordering an IMO 60 swatch before buying lets you check whether the dark colour and textured finish of the material suit your planned bedroom design.
