Material

Upholstery velour is a polyester fabric designed for upholstery and decorative applications. The soft surface gives finished products an elegant, pleasant-to-touch character, while the reinforced and laminated construction improves fabric stability in use.

Key material features:

• material type: polyester,
• fabric base: Velour
• weight: 330 g/m²,
• roll width: 145 cm,
• finish: matte,
• soft velour surface,
• reinforced and laminated construction,
• suitable for direct and transfer sublimation printing,
• aesthetic finish for interior applications.

Thanks to these parameters, the fabric combines a decorative appearance with the functionality needed for upholstery and utility textiles.

Soft velour surface

One of the most important features of this fabric is its soft, pleasant-to-touch surface. The velour texture gives products a more elegant and decorative character, which makes the material suitable for interior arrangements, textile accessories and upholstery elements.

Key surface benefits:

• pleasant hand feel,
• soft structure,
• elegant appearance,
• decorative character,
• comfort in use,
• aesthetic finish for furniture and accessories,
• good fit for interior design projects.

This fabric is recommended for projects where the product needs to be not only practical, but also visually attractive and pleasant in everyday contact.

Reinforced and laminated construction

Upholstery Velour Fabric has a reinforced and laminated construction, which increases its stability in use. This is particularly important in upholstery applications, where the material may be stretched, fixed, stitched and used on furniture surfaces.

The reinforced construction supports:

• fabric stability in the finished product,
• better performance during upholstery work,
• greater functionality in upholstery applications,
• durability of functional elements,
• the option to use it in decorative and commercial projects,
• easier work when producing interior furnishing elements.

As a result, the fabric can be used both for individual projects and for short or larger production runs.

Matte finish

The matte surface finish reduces light reflections and gives the fabric an elegant character. In interior design projects, this is especially important because the material looks good in different lighting conditions and does not create an excessive shine effect.

Key benefits of the matte finish:

• reduced light reflections,
• a more elegant appearance,
• better perception of decorative graphics,
• a more subtle visual effect,
• good fit for private and commercial interiors,
• aesthetic finish for upholstered products.

The matte surface works well for furniture upholstery, decorative cushions and interior arrangement elements where a calm, refined look is important.

Weight 330 g/m²

The 330 g/m² weight gives the fabric a more stable and solid character than lightweight decorative fabrics. It is suitable for projects where durability, the right hand feel and an attractive finished appearance are important.

A fabric of this weight works well in products such as:

• armchair upholstery,
• sofa upholstery,
• chair upholstery,
• seat cushions,
• decorative cushions,
• cushion covers,
• upholstery elements,
• interior textiles,
• commercial decorations,
• home decor collections.

It is a good choice for projects where the fabric needs to be decorative, stable and suitable for everyday use.

Applications of printed upholstery velour

Upholstery Velour Fabric with sublimation print has a wide range of applications in upholstery, decorative and interior design projects.

Example applications:

• armchair upholstery,

Sublimation printing

Upholstery velour is compatible with direct and transfer sublimation printing. This allows the technology to be matched to the character of the project, type of graphic, print size and expected final effect.

Key benefits of sublimation printing:

• the option to print any patterns,
• all-over printing capability,
• aesthetic graphic reproduction,
• the option to print decorative patterns,
• the option to print logos and collection motifs,
• no thick print layer on the fabric surface,
• the option to produce individual and serial projects,
• print matching to a specific interior product.

The final print result depends on the quality of the supplied design, printing technology, production settings and the properties of the velour surface.

Personalisation of interior products

Printed upholstery velour works very well in personalised and decorative projects. The option to print any pattern makes it possible to create products tailored to an interior style, brand, collection or a specific design project.

Possible forms of personalisation:

• decorative pattern printing,
• artistic graphic printing,
• botanical motif printing,
• geometric pattern printing,
• logo printing,
• collection graphic printing,
• printing a pattern for a specific piece of furniture,
• all-over printing.

This is especially useful for personalised furniture, decorative cushions, home decor collections, hotel projects, display projects and commercial interiors.

Quality and repeatability

In the production of printed upholstery fabrics, repeatability of colours, patterns and functional parameters is important. This is especially relevant for interior collections, furniture production, commercial projects and larger orders.

Possible production control and arrangement elements:

• selection of printing technology,
• sample preparation,
• proof preparation,
• adjusting the graphic to the fabric width,
• matching the pattern to the cutting layout,
• colour repeatability,
• preparing the product specification,
• production of short and larger runs,
• verification of the fabric for the intended application.

For demanding projects, a sample is recommended to check the colours, graphic sharpness, fabric hand feel, behaviour of the velour surface and the final print effect.

Logistics and B2B cooperation

Upholstery Velour Fabric with print can be used for individual projects, short runs and larger production orders. Cooperation is possible with upholstery workshops, furniture manufacturers, home decor brands, interior designers, sewing workshops and online stores.

Cooperation options include:

• prototypes,
• short runs,
• decorative collections,
• upholstery production,
• personalised products,
• larger orders,
• ongoing cooperation,
• support with file preparation,
• advice on choosing the printing technology,
• private label production.

It is a practical solution for companies that want to introduce decorative and upholstery fabrics with custom printing and repeatable quality.

How to prepare artwork for printing?

The graphic design should be prepared in high quality so that the print looks good on the velour surface of the fabric. For furniture upholstery, cushions and decorative elements, it is worth considering the pattern scale, graphic direction and fabric cutting method.

When preparing artwork, it is worth considering:

• fabric width: 145 cm,
• pattern scale,
• graphic repeatability,
• placement of elements on the cutting layout,
• direction of the pattern,
• legibility of fine details,
• colour scheme of the design,

The better the design is prepared, the better and more predictable the final print result will be.
