FABRIC GRADE CHART

The Furniture Concepts Fabric Grade Chart helps customers easily compare upholstery options based on durability, protection technology, and overall performance. Each fabric is assigned a grade level that reflects its relative cost and construction, allowing designers and buyers to select materials that best match their project needs and budget.

Our upholstery selections include a wide range of performance fabrics, vinyls, polyurethane materials, and Crypton® textiles, each engineered to meet the demands of high-traffic environments such as behavioral healthcare, senior living, transitional housing, and commercial spaces. Many options include advanced protection technologies such as stain- and soil-resistant finishes, antimicrobial treatments, and moisture barriers to support long-term durability and easy maintenance.

How Fabric Grades Work

• Lower grade numbers typically represent standard performance fabrics.

• Higher grade numbers often indicate premium materials, enhanced performance finishes, or specialty textiles.

• Grades help determine the price adjustment when upgrading upholstery on Furniture Concepts products.
