Performance Treated Collection
Fabrics That Make Life Easier
Stain Resistance
Our performance treatment gives superior protection against stains, so you can relax knowing spills are easier to manage. Even without this treatment, all our new fabrics are made with synthetic fibres that are less absorbent and easier to clean than natural fabrics. This makes them practical for everyday living.
Moisture Resistance
Our fabrics are less prone to mold and mildew, making them especially well-suited to coastal environments.
Fade Resistance
Colours stay vibrant even with long exposure to light, making our fabrics ideal for sunnier climates and the strong Australian sun.
Durability
Built to last, our fabrics resist pilling, wear, and fraying. They’re tested to industry standards, including Martindale grading, so you can count on them to handle everyday use with ease.
Why Performance Treatment?
Some of our fabrics have been treated with C0 (C-Zero), a fluorine-free, stain-resistant coating similar to Scotchgard. This treatment makes fabrics highly resistant to water and stains while remaining environmentally friendly, leaving no long-lasting residues and minimizing ecological impact.
The treatment is most effective in kitchen and dining areas, which is why it is currently available on our dining chair and stool collection. While we plan to expand this option across more of our range, for other upholstered furniture we recommend using Guardsman Fabric Protector for added protection.

All new fabrics are certified according to STANDARD 100 by OEKO TEX®, which is a guarantee that no hazardous chemicals have been used in its production & ensures that textiles and fabrics are free from harmful chemicals, making them safe for direct contact with skin.
At IconByDesign, performance fabrics bring together considered design and advanced protective treatment - made to handle everyday use, resist spills, and stay easy to care for over time. Available across our core fabric dining chairs, bar stools, and the Franz Armchair & Footstool in Oatmeal Beige - the perfect nursing chair.
