ROUGE is an upholstery fabric made of 100% polyester (PES), weighing 530 g per running metre and 145 cm wide. It achieves 50,000 cycles in the Martindale test and is available in 18 colours.

Yes, ROUGE achieves 50,000 cycles in the Martindale test, which corresponds to heavy domestic use. It works well on sofas, corner sofas and armchairs used every day, and its pilling rating of 4–5 helps it keep a neat look.

The specification does not describe the softness of ROUGE, so the feel is best judged from a sample. A weight of 530 g per running metre indicates a substantial, solid upholstery fabric.

ROUGE needs standard upholstery care: regular vacuuming with a soft brush and blotting stains quickly. The specification does not mention a special easy-clean finish, so marks are best removed with a mild soap solution.

No – the ROUGE specification does not list water-repellent properties. Spilled liquids should be blotted straight away with an absorbent cloth before they soak into the fibres.

ROUGE works well in everyday family life thanks to abrasion resistance of 50,000 Martindale cycles and a pilling rating of 4–5. As the fabric has no declared water-repellent properties, stains are best removed promptly.

The ROUGE specification does not describe the fabric as pet-friendly. Abrasion resistance of 50,000 cycles copes well with everyday use, but with sharp-clawed pets it is worth checking a sample first and vacuuming pet hair regularly.

ROUGE has a pilling rating of 4–5 on a 1–5 scale, meaning a low tendency to bobble in normal use. As a result, the material keeps its neat appearance for longer.

ROUGE works well on sofas, corner sofas, armchairs, pouffes and upholstered headboards. At Pillovely it is used, for example, on the POLE and WIANEC beds.

The ROUGE collection includes 18 colours – from light shades such as Krem Migdałowy and Lniana Mgła, through Mech Górski and Mroźny Turkus, to deep tones such as Burgund Winny, Głębinowy Błękit and Czarny Diament.

Yes, the ROUGE palette – from muted beiges and greys to deep burgundies and blues – suits modern classic, soft loft, Japandi and minimalist interiors. It pairs well with wood, metal and light-coloured accessories.

To keep the material looking good, vacuum the upholstery regularly with a soft attachment. Avoid harsh detergents and soaking the surface. Removing marks quickly helps the fabric look its best for longer.
