Fabrics
Before placing your order, we recommend you seek the advice of an upholsterer or a curtain maker.
Our fabrics are suitable for curtain making, upholstery, fabric walling and all interior use.
The Martindale Rub tests for our fabrics are as follows:
- 100% Cotton – 40,000
- 100% Linen – over 25,000
- Union of Cotton and linen – 29,000
The lighter cloths used in the making of our lampshades have a lower rub test result making them unsuitable for upholstery.
We strongly advise ordering samples before meters of fabric as colours may differ when viewed on screen. Our use of natural fibres, pigments and traditional printing methods means that it is not always possible to give an exact colour or impression match to your sample. Our quality control is such that we would never send a product of which we were not proud nor confident that the match is good.
All fabrics are designed and printed in our own Studio and factory in England.
Outdoor Fabrics
All the fabrics are produced on a new, specially woven basecloth made from 100% recycled plastic bottles. Our Indoor-Outdoor collection is printed using the same screens and pigments as our fine interior fabrics, the collection is made without PFCs, PFAS and other harmful ‘forever chemicals’.
Several families of synthetic organic chemicals, including PFCs, PFAS, PFAS and PFOA, are commonly used to make fabrics water-repellent and stain-resistant. Their exact structures differ slightly, but they’re all virtually indestructible and persist almost indefinitely in the environment – hence the term ‘forever chemicals’.
23 design/colourways in a selection of our iconic interior fabrics designs; Shell Grotto, Poulton Stripe, York Stripe, Sicily, Strie, Rabanna, Wicker and Orchard Stripe.
It’s woven in the same construction as our cotton twill.
No. It has the same soft, natural feel as our interior fabrics.
Yes, like all Fermoie fabrics, they’re made entirely in-house using our own basecloth, proprietary colour-mixing and production techniques.
For years, customers (particularly in the US) have been asking us when we’ll produce fabrics they can use outdoors as well as in. We’ve always politely but firmly replied that we’d do so just as soon as we could translate the look and feel of interior fabrics authentically and sustainably. It’s been a long, painstaking process, but through patience, innovation, careful development and strict adherence to our founding values, we’ve finally achieved it.
Most water- and stain-resistant fabrics contain ‘forever chemicals’ from the PFCs and PFAS families. These materials are not compatible with our founding sustainability values and we were not prepared to compromise. We have taken the time to develop and perfect a fabric composition that gives the performance and longevity our customers demand, while avoiding the use of these harmful substances.
All these chemical families are toxic to wildlife and humans, even at very low concentrations, and are associated with a range of health problems, including various cancers, hormone disruption, liver and thyroid disorders, reduced vaccine effectiveness, reproductive harm and abnormal foetal development. Because they’re so persistent, they also bioaccumulate, which means they’re passed along the food chain, with whatever is at the top (usually us) most seriously affected.
For more details on these chemicals and the relevant international regulations, please refer to the Technical Data Sheet.
In practical terms, very little, but to maximise their performance and longevity, treat them as you would our interior fabrics. The most important things customers need to be aware of are:
- These fabrics are water-resistant but not fully waterproof
- Care should be taken to avoid stains, particularly from oily substances. There’s currently no means by which we, or anyone else, can make fabrics fully stain-proof without using ‘forever chemicals’
We don’t recommend it. As with most outdoor textiles, they will last much longer and keep their colours better if stored inside when not in use, or during periods of wet, cold, or damp weather.
Our Indoor-Outdoor fabrics can be machine-washed or dry-cleaned.
- Machine-washing: We recommend using mild liquid detergent. Run a full load and wash on a short, cool (30C/86F) cycle. Hang to dry.
- Dry-cleaning: We recommend using a professional dry cleaner
No. Bleach will discolour or remove the pigments in the fabric.
Yes. Like all outdoor fabrics, ours will need some TLC during their lifetime to maintain their water repellency. We recommend using a PFAS/PFC-free waterproofing solution: our preferred product is TX Direct spray-on its available online and at most outdoor shops.
Upholstery, curtains and cushions, indoors or outdoors.
The fabrics have a Martindale rub test score of 40,000.
We aim to dispatch Indoor-Outdoor fabrics within 14 working days from receipt of order.
