TOM DIXON BOUCLE
This selection of boucle fabrics was chosen for its soft, voluminous and elegant characteristics.
Boucle combines polyester and polyacrylic yarns, which have been twisted and spun to create a
beautiful upholstery fabric. Made first by creating loose loops around a core yarn, bouclé yarns are
a popular choice in furniture fabrics, as they are suitable for loose covers and easily upholstered
on tight fitted models. The texture of boucle is formed by the varying size of loops, from large and
loose curls to small and tight circlets.

* To pass this test flame retardant treatment

environmentally friendly alternatives but for
now, the external finisher may use a treatment
containing halogen-based flame retardants.
