Furnisoft Breathable

At Agua Fabrics, we continually develop upholstery fabrics that support real-world functionality while elevating interior comfort. The Furnisoft Breathable collection is a specialist contract fabric designed to offer a unique combination of softness, durability, and breathability—ideal for commercial environments where comfort and hygiene are equally important.

Built for performance but with a supple, leather-like handle, this fabric is engineered for spaces that require extended seating comfort, air permeability, and long-term resilience.

Breathable Performance, Built for the Contract Market

Unlike traditional faux leathers, Furnisoft Breathable incorporates a micro-perforated surface structure that allows air and moisture vapour to pass through—helping to regulate temperature and reduce the discomfort of prolonged seating.

At the same time, the fabric retains all the protective qualities needed in demanding commercial interiors:

Key features include:

• Breathable construction – supporting extended comfort and reducing heat buildup
• Waterproof – with a moisture barrier that protects underlying foam
• Crib 5 Fire Retardant – meeting the safety standards required for contract use
• Stain-resistant – for easy and efficient cleaning
• Anti-microbial and anti-fungal protection – helping maintain hygiene in shared or clinical spaces
• Martindale abrasion rating >100,000 rubs – ensuring lasting performance in high-use settings

These features make Furnisoft Breathable a compelling option for a wide range of commercial fabric applications—particularly where occupant comfort and compliance are both top priorities.

A Soft, Leather-Like Feel

Despite its technical specification, Furnisoft Breathable offers a remarkably soft and pliable surface. Its lightly grained, matte finish gives it the appearance and feel of natural leather, without the maintenance or material limitations.

It’s well suited for:

• Healthcare seating and patient chairs
• Ergonomic task and operator seating
• Cruise and marine lounges
• Airport or public waiting areas
• Office seating requiring extended-use comfort

This balance of form, function, and feel ensures Furnisoft Breathable performs equally well in both front-of-house and back-of-house environments.

Colourways to Support Calm, Professional Interiors

Furnisoft Breathable is available in a selection of 12 considered shades, spanning cool greys, classic charcoals, and warm neutrals.

The palette is designed to work seamlessly across healthcare, corporate, and transport sectors, supporting spaces that favour calm, neutral aesthetics while prioritising hygiene and practicality.

Applications Across Sectors

Furnisoft Breathable has been widely adopted in industries where commercial upholstery fabrics must deliver not only durability but also comfort over time. These include:

• Healthcare and senior living – where breathable surfaces can enhance patient and resident wellbeing
• Office and workplace environments – supporting comfort in long-duration seating applications
• Cruise and marine interiors – offering breathability without compromising on moisture protection
• Transportation and aviation lounges – where seat comfort and easy care are essential

Wherever it’s used, this collection delivers quiet performance, combining understated style with technical excellence.

Sustainability and Confidence in Use

Furnisoft Breathable is REACH compliant, free from harmful chemicals, and manufactured to Agua’s consistent quality standards. Its wipe-clean surface and long product lifespan also support more sustainable maintenance and replacement cycles, making it a practical and responsible choice.
