TAILOR MADE FABRIC (TMF) AND LEATHER (TML)
In addition to our selection of fabrics, we have over 100 pre-approved Tailor Made Fabrics
(TMF) and Leathers (TML) to choose from.
For all non-approved fabrics and leathers, a full chair will need to be produced to
approve the fabric in advance of order placement and confirmation. This will be charged
at full price, regardless of fabric suitability and will increase the Tailor Made lead time by
at least 2 weeks. This is subject to a minimum order quantity.
Please contact customerservices@tomdixon.net for a full list of pre-approved fabrics
and leathers and the Tailor Made ordering process.
Fabric/Leather Suitability
It is the responsibility of the Customer to ensure the selected material is suitable for the
intended environment. Tom Dixon cannot take any responsibility for the performance of
the material or any improper use. It is the responsibility of the Customer to ensure they
follow the Care & Maintenance guidelines provided by the manufacturer. Seek further
advice from the fabric supplier where required.
Guidelines for Domestic Use
The upholstery composite (lay up of fabric cover, any interliners and the filling assembly)
must be inherently cigarette resistant without added chemical flame retardants. It is the
responsibility of the Customer to advise if the TMF or TML material supplied is inherently
cigarette resistant.
Guidelines for Contract Use
The upholstery composite (lay up of fabric cover, any interliners and the filling assembly)
must be inherently cigarette resistant without added chemical flame retardants. It is the
responsibility of the Customer to advise the specific non domestic usage requirements
and to advise that the TMF or TML fabric supplied meets the requirements. Any other
regional requirements will need to be agreed in advance of order placement. All test
certificates must be sent to Tom Dixon for approval in advance of order placement and
confirmation.
