What is Microfiber? - MOTIF Modern Living

Microfiber

Microfiber, especially in modern and contemporary furniture, is fast becoming a popular upholstery choice because of its low maintenance, soft texture, and lightweight durability. Microfiber utilizes fibers with less than 1 denier per filament. (Denier is a measure of linear density and often used to describe the size of a fiber or filament). One hundred times finer than a human hair, it is the tiniest man made fiber possible with today's technology. While many microfibers are made of polyester, they can also be composed of polyamide (nylon) or other polymers. The fibers leave no lint or dust, so they are highly recommended for allergy sufferers.

Microfiber by its very nature is stain resistant. As a result, stain products like Scotch Guard or other fabric protection materials are usually unnecessary with this type of sofa.
