No matter which type of fabric you choose for your
cushions, Gloster only use the best outdoor fabrics that
are manufactured using 100% solution dyed acrylic yarns
for maximum resistance to the fading and degrading effects
of sunlight. All fabrics are finished with a water-repellent
coating on the surface to reduce water absorbency. If the
fabric does become wet from prolonged exposure, they
will come to no harm, and the fabrics will dry out naturally.
Gloster cushions are offered with fabrics that fall into
three distinct groups:
For maximum water resistance, a selection of Sunbrella®
Rain cover fabrics features a water-resistant coating
that is applied to the back face, helping prevent water
travelling beyond the surface of the fabric. Although not
offering quite the same soft hand as our other fabrics,
these water-resistant fabrics are very practical and quick
drying. The fillings inside the cushion are engineered using
open cell materials to allow for maximum air circulation,
helping to speed up the drying process even further.
Combining with all the benefits present in Outdoor
Performance cushions, Gloster offers this range of
exclusive knitted performance fabrics that are the first
to be used outdoors. These knitted fabrics offer the
ultimate in terms of softness, giving a sumptuous cosy
feel, while the inherent stretch allows for the perfect fit to
even the most demanding of cushion shapes. The Wave
fabrics feature a unique, 3D knitted structure giving levels
of texture and softness unparalleled in outdoor fabrics.
MAXIMUM WATER RESISTANCE
MAXIMUM SOFT TOUCH
Offered in a wide selection of stylish and sophisticated
fabrics with a soft hand, our Outdoor Performance
cushions use the softest, most luxurious fillings that give
the feel of the most comfortable indoor furniture. A highly
water-resistant barrier beneath the outer fabric cover
protects the fillings, keeping drying times to a minimum.
