Frequently asked questions

How to clean Sunbrella fabric? 

It's surprisingly easy. For most spills, use mild soap and water. For tough stains like mildew, you can use a solution of water and bleach without damaging the fabric's color.

Can Sunbrella fabric be used both indoors and outdoors? 

Yes, Sunbrella designs fabrics for both. The outdoor fabrics are tough enough for any weather, and the Sunbrella indoor fabric collections offer the same durability for high-traffic family rooms.

Is Sunbrella fabric waterproof? 

Sunbrella fabric is water-resistant and breathable, but not fully waterproof. This means it dries very quickly and resists mildew, but a heavy downpour will eventually soak through.

What makes Sunbrella fabric so fade-resistant? 

The color is added to the fibers while they are in a liquid state (solution-dyed). This means the color is part of the fiber itself, not just a dye applied to the surface, so it can't be worn or bleached away.
