Agora Esquire Water-Resistant & Stain-Resistant Indoor/Outdoor Upholstery Fabric, 160cm Wide

Agora Esquire is a indoor and outdoor upholstery fabric combining timeless elegance with modern performance. Manufactured from 100% solution-dyed acrylic, this 420gsm fabric offers a distinctive woven appearance, colour fastness and a soft, comfortable finish.

made for both traditional and settings, Esquire features a collection of natural shades, muted colours and richer contrasting tones. Its water-repellent and stain-resistant treatment makes it a choice for garden furniture, indoor upholstery, marine cushions and commercial furnishings.

Supplied 160cm wide, Agora Esquire is suitable for professional upholsterers, furniture manufacturers, marine trimmers and customers creating bespoke furnishings.

Water-Resistant & Stain-Resistant Upholstery Fabric

Agora Esquire combines woven styling with practical protection against everyday use and environmental exposure.

Its water-repellent finish helps moisture bead on the surface, providing resistance to light showers, splashes and occasional spills. The stain-resistant treatment makes routine cleaning easier, particularly for furniture used in gardens, conservatories and hospitality environments.

Additional benefits include:

• UV resistance and fade resistance
• Stain-resistant and water-repellent finish
• Mould-resistant properties
• Soft, breathable woven construction
• Durable abrasion-resistant surface
• Easy-clean and disinfectable characteristics
• resistance to colour deterioration

Esquire is water-resistant rather than completely waterproof. Prolonged rain or standing water may eventually penetrate the fabric.

Outdoor Furniture Fabric for Garden Cushions & Patio Seating

Agora Esquire is particularly suited to outdoor upholstery projects requiring a more substantial, decorative fabric.

Typical applications include:

• Garden sofa and corner-unit cushions
• Replacement rattan furniture cushions
• Patio chairs and outdoor dining furniture
• Garden bench seating
• Sun loungers and poolside furnishings
• Outdoor scatter cushions
• Covered terrace and conservatory furniture

Its combination of water resistance, stain protection and sunlight resistance so it is used for comfortable outdoor seating.

Marine Upholstery Fabric for Boats & Yachts

Agora Esquire is also recommended for nautical upholstery applications, including suitable boat seating, yacht cushions, cabin furnishings and marine soft furnishings.

The solution-dyed acrylic fibres help resist colour fading from sunlight, while the fabric's stain-resistant and mould-resistant characteristics are particularly useful in marine environments.

Its comfortable woven finish provides an alternative to traditional marine vinyl where a textile appearance is preferred.

Indoor Upholstery, Curtains & Commercial Furnishings

Although engineered for outdoor performance, Agora Esquire is equally for interior furnishings.

Its classic woven character works particularly well on upholstered chairs, sofas, decorative cushions, curtains, conservatory furniture and suitable hospitality seating.

The combination of natural colours and contrasting richer shades allows Esquire to complement traditional interiors while remaining appropriate for furniture designs.

Commercial projects should be checked against the relevant upholstery and fire-performance requirements.

Cleaning & Caring for Agora Esquire

Remove loose dirt regularly and clean accidental spills promptly before staining becomes established.

Allow cleaned upholstery to dry thoroughly. During prolonged wet weather, storing removable cushions in a sheltered, ventilated environment will help protect the complete cushion construction.
