Which are the different sofa cover materials available?

In general, sofa cover is an ordinary home textile product. it can be made by many different material, We can see cotton, Jacquard, Silk, Lace, Velvet,Chenille, Line etc.. we will pick some common material to check the details.

Cotton  

Cotton sofa cover is popular in home textile industry, it has a lot of advantage, like breathable, health, touching smoothly, cost-effective etc..

Many housewife will choose it because cotton sofa cover is friendly to babies and elders.

However, cotton material sofa cover will shrink after washing, by our thousands of test, about 3-5% shrink rate is common. So when choosing this kind of sofa cover, you need to take this shrink rate into consideration.

Besides, Printing skills is also very important in cotton sofa cover. We choose sofa cover, one of most important reason is to decorate our house, so aesthetic appeal is a very basic requirement. Few people will choose pure color sofa cover due to its poor aesthetic.

Therefore printing material and printing skills is very important in sofa cover, The quality is depended on color, material. The reason you will take it home mainly because it is beautiful and you love it.

Jacquard

High-density jacquard fabric is a three-dimensional textured fabric formed through special weaving techniques, featuring a delicate texture and strong wear resistance, and is commonly used in high-end home furnishing products. This material not only provides a rich visual layering, but also effectively enhances tactile comfort, making it one of the mainstream choices for mid-to-high-end sofa cushions in recent years.

The difference between jacquard and cotton materials is that, cotton is using printing skills so it feels flat to the touch. But jacquard tactile sensation is three-dimensional. It is obviously the technology content of jacquard is more compared with cotton material.

Silk

Actually silk material sofa cover is rare, few people will choose silk sofa cover. Since the cost of silk sofa cover is higher, and it is used to protect sofa, but silk sofa cover cost maybe higher than some sofa.

Besides, the silk feels cool and smooth in touching, so it is really good choice for clothes and pants.However, for home decoration, especially for sofa cover, it is to light and will easy to having displacement and sliding occur on the sofa.

Even silk sofa is not a good material for sofa cover, but it has good performance in some specific occasions, like hotel, business occasions etc..Under this situation, compared to practicality, people will pay more attention to the decorative aspect of this product.

By the way, recently has ice-silk sofa cover, it is popular in summer. we can feel cool when sitting on this, so generally, when we called silk sofa cover, actually we are talking about ice-silk sofa cover, not sofa cover.

Lace

Lace sofa cover is popular in our house and many companies. For its  low-key and subtle style, but it has a good embellishing and decorative effect.For this kind of sofa cover, it is usually used in solid color sofa. So solid sofa with this lace sofa cover, it has good performance in decorative.

By the way, lace sofa cover has a sense of elegance and grandeur, so it is also used widely in office or some political occasions, like police office, hospital and government agency.

Velvet

Velvet sofa cover is also very popular. In cold winter, it is enjoyable in daily life when you stay in the sofa for a long time.

The advantage of velvet sofa is that it is really warm, high quality velvet can feel soft and breathable when sitting it. But if the quality is poor, it is airtight when sitting, also you can clearly perceive the inferior quality and the gap between it and high-quality products.

Therefore, we highly recommend if you need velvet sofa cover(it is really a good choice for winter), you should consider the cost and the value.

Currently little velvet sofa cover will use animal fur, but due to its difficulty in maintenance, may velvet product(not only sofa cover)will choose man-made fiber to instead.

Chenille

Chenille sofa cover is widely used in our daily life, many will choose chenille material, it is a common material for sofa cover and curtain,  The characteristics of being sturdy, strong, and durable, it is the first choice for many housewife to use chenille sofa cover.

By the way, chenille material also have many color, so it is the first choice

when pick up sofa cover due to its high quality and multiply color and size.

Linen

Linen sofa cover is warmly welcomed years ago. It is classic material in home textile products, Now many people prefer it and think it is one kind of natural material. No dying, no chemical substances, environment friendly. So it must be health for our home member.

Actually,if the linen material do not process some dying, rinsing, setting,cutting, it can not be used in our daily. So it is just another kind of cotton, but the feeling of touching has a little different.Linen has its special and unique feeling when touching. Not very smoothly but also very comfortable, many people will choose linen sofa cover for this special feeling.

So in the recent years, we prefer cotton sofa cover rather than linen sofa cover, the cost of cotton is more competitive and the application scenarios of cotton sofa cover and linen sofa cover is similar.

Nylon

Nylon sofa cover is also welcomed in sofa cover products, but not many people will see it in daily life, because its breathability is not as good as others.

But it has special application scenarios,when this sofa will not be used for a long time, says one year. Its performance is good. So you can see many nylon sofa cover in warehouse, not our daily life.
