BURLINGTON, N.C. — Performance fabric maker Trivantage has introduced two distinct offerings to the Batyline sling fabric collection by Serge Ferrari. Batyline Elios and Batyline Eden are designed for fabricating long-lasting sling chairs and outdoor furniture, having dimensional stability, outstanding strength and durability in any climate.
Both collections are made from a blend of PVC, polyester and synthetic yarns, including a flocked yarn that makes them soft to the touch. With an open-weave design, breathability and quick-drying properties, these sling fabrics are designed to offer a comfortable and cool experience no matter the temperature.
Other notable features include:
● 100% waterproof.
● Phthalate-free.
● Resists sagging or stretching.
● Easy to clean; mildew-resistant.
● Five-year warranty.
Batyline Eden fabric can be used for sling, cushion and upholstery projects, featuring 23 standard colors plus five waterproof colors. Compared to other acrylic options, Batyline Eden fabrics are five times more resistant to abrasion and feature double the tensile strength, the company said in a news release. Batyline Elios fabrics are available in 10 colors to fit with any design.
“We remain dedicated to providing the best decorative and industrial fabrics in the industry and to stay aligned with evolving consumer trends,” said Jimmy Barnhardt, decorative sales manager at Trivantage. “Adding Eden and Elios Sling is the perfect way to elevate outdoor sling seating and allow your craftsmanship to shine.”
Serge Ferrari has produced performance fabrics, particularly for solar protection, for more than 50 years. The company is known for their Précontraint process, which creates fabrics out of flexible composite materials for enhanced dimensional stability. Glen Raven-owned Trivantage has partnered with Serge Ferrari in recent years on the Batyline collection.
