Marine Upholstery Fabrics

There are a couple of factors that make the marine upholstery fabrics different from car upholstery ones. First is humidity. As boats and marine vessels need to be in the water, the marine upholstery fabric needs to be kind of water resistant to last for a long time in case of continuous exposure to the water. The other one is resistibility to the salt. Most boats and marine vessels may be docked or travel in the salt water. Salt can damage the boat fabric, therefore, it is important to consider resistibility to the salt when evaluating marine upholstery fabric. The last and foremost factor is exposure to the sunlight. As boats are usually docked in the rivers or shores with long-time exposure to the sunlight, a sun-resistant fabric is an important criteria for the marine upholstery.

There are different sorts of fabric that can be used in marine upholstery. The most common one is heavy vinyl. It is easier to clean than other fabrics, it can repel moisture, its lifespan is longer, and, simply, it is affordable. The other fabric used in marine upholstery is heavy canvas. One good point about heavy canvas is that it dries out faster than other fabrics in case of becoming wet since it is breathable. It is also possible to make the heavy canvas resistant to the moisture.

Marine Upholstery

When you contact Lux Motor Trimming, we can consult you about the right type of marine upholstery fabric that is suitable for your usage whether it is a small boat docked on the riverside or a superyacht on the sea shore.

The same as cars, seats, carpets, canopies, and other internal parts of your boat need regular maintenance. It can help them have a long life-span. In addition, in case one keeps delaying on properly maintaining the upholstery in their boats, one day they may have to replace the entire seats, canopies, covers, and/or carpets that can become an expensive expense.
