How are pet friendly fabrics for sofas made?

Are you tired of constantly worrying about your furry friend ruining your furniture? Look no further than pet-friendly fabrics. While no fabric is truly scratch-proof, these specially engineered materials offer a level of protection that can give you peace of mind.

What makes pet-friendly fabrics special?

Pet-friendly fabrics are designed to be scratch resistant and water resistant, making them ideal for homes with pets. These fabrics undergo key tests for scratch resistance, such as the snagging resistant conducted by testing agencies like SGS and Intertek.

Why are pet-friendly fabrics velvety in nature?

Most pet-friendly fabrics have a velvety texture, which not only adds a touch of luxury to your furniture but also serves a practical purpose. The velvety nature of these fabrics makes them less likely to be destroyed by scratches from your pets. The key reason behind this is that the velvet texture is tight woven. This reduces the tendency of pet claws snagging the fabric fibres leading to fabric damange.

What are the benefits of using pet-friendly fabrics?

One of the main benefits of pet-friendly fabrics is their durability against scratches. Your furniture is less likely to show signs of wear and tear, even with active pets in the house. Additionally, these fabrics make cleaning up after accidents easier. If your pet happens to pee on the sofa, the stains are easier to remove. The pee are also less likely to soak through and wet the foams and cushions, leading to the sofa to have a permanent smell.

Investing in pet-friendly fabrics can not only protect your furniture but also make your life easier when it comes to cleaning and maintenance. While no fabric is completely immune to scratches, these specially designed materials offer a level of protection that can give you peace of mind in a pet-friendly household.
