Materials

Fabrics designed for sewing Ikea covers on chairs and sofas are practical, durable, and easy to clean. They are easy to clean, they can be machine washed in the usual way, following the recommendations on temperature indicators. It is permissible to use water heating up to 40-60 degrees. Some varieties are dry cleanable. All fabrics can be ironed at high temperature.

Mostly the models are represented by materials of a mixed type having polyester and cotton in the structure. There are capes, one hundred percent consisting of synthetic fibers, other covers are completely natural. To improve performance characteristics, viscose and linen are often added to the composition. Blended fabrics combine the best qualities of the raw materials used, so they are the most preferred option. A brief description of the two basic materials for the manufacture of wraps and covers for Ikea chairs, as well as various models of sofas of this brand:

Cotton. Natural fabric, its main positive feature is good breathability. Such a wrap is pleasant to the touch, does not cause allergies, but is easily wrinkled, can shrink during washing. Usually cotton is combined with artificial additives, which gives it special strength, resistance to deformation.
Polyester. A synthetic fabric that is made from polyester fibers. Outwardly resembles wool, and in terms of characteristics has much in common with cotton. Pluses of the material: it does not fade from the rays of the sun, is very durable, does not wear out for a long time, is not afraid of fungus and moths, is resistant to pollution, and is easy to clean. Cons of the fabric: it is quite rigid, can be very electrified, poorly passes air.

If cats or dogs live in the house, relax fabric is used for covers, which in its structure resembles leather - due to the isoprene layer and thick pile, claw puffs do not appear on it.
