Ultrafabrics, the pioneer in sustainable performance fabrics, unveils Pumice, its latest outdoor collection designed to bring the allure of underwater exploration to both indoor and outdoor active living spaces.

Inspired by the mesmerizing beauty of the ocean’s depths, Pumice blends a refreshed colour palette with unparalleled durability, ensuring it withstands whatever Mother Nature delivers.

Nicole Meier, Director of Branding at Ultrafabrics, says:

“We have always offered global leadership in luxury marine performance fabrics, from mega yachts to smaller recreational watercraft. We wanted to take that technology and offer it to the hospitality and residential design specifiers. Pumice has the supple feel of leather that can live on outdoor furniture, but also has the quality and endurance of a luxury marine fabric.”

Embodying the Essence of the Ocean

The Pumice collection reimagines the wonders of the deep sea through a spectrum of colours including riverstone beige, soft yellow, muted coral, seashell pink, dusty seaglass green, and nautical blue. Each hue resonates with the spirit of exploration, inviting designers to create outdoor spaces that reflect both tranquillity and adventure.

Unmatched Performance Attributes

Pumice is equipped for the outdoors, featuring EPA-registered anti-mildew, antimicrobial, and antibacterial agents, safeguarding against deterioration and maintaining hygiene integrity. Its exceptional colour-fastness to sunlight, perspiration, chlorine, and seawater ensures lasting vibrancy even in the harshest conditions. The fabric’s textured surface adds a tactile dimension, making it ideal for active settings such as marine seating and high-exposure furniture applications.
