Crypton Fabric is specially engineered so that every fiber is encapsulated with a patented impenetrable moisture barrier that protects the fabric from spills, keeping stains from setting in the foam of the cushions. The fabric can also be treated with a disinfectant when used in conjunction with their EPA-registered Crypton Disinfectant & Deodorizer. It’s well-known to be one of the very best fabrics on the market; it’s even been used in Buckingham Palace and the White House!
