Matt and glossy yarns alternate through a microstructure that came out of experiments on the loom, so the cloth reads as a plain at any distance and as a weave close up. Soft to the hand, which is not always the case with flame-retardant polyester at 800 g.
60,000 Martindale rubs, colour fastness of 7 out of 8 to light, and a certification list that runs unusually wide: contract upholstery and curtains in the UK, France, Germany and Italy, IMO 8 for marine upholstery and IMO 5 as a wallcovering, and BS5852 to cigarette and match. Eighteen colourways. 140 cm, made in Italy.
