Libra

At Agua Fabrics, we understand the importance of comfort, especially in commercial environments that demand more from their materials. The Libra collection is a deep pile, soft-touch upholstery fabric designed specifically for high-traffic contract settings, combining plush texture with full technical performance.

With a dense, velvety surface and a wide choice of colourways, Libra is a popular choice for designers seeking to add warmth, richness, and durability to commercial interiors.

Tactile Depth with Proven Durability

Libra has the look and feel of a plush, luxurious fabric—but its performance specification is anything but delicate. Behind the softness lies a hard-wearing construction suitable for a wide range of commercial and public-facing environments.

Key features include:

• Waterproof – Hydrostatic Head >1 metre
• Crib 5 Fire Retardant – compliant with UK and marine standards
• Stain-resistant – effective protection against everyday spills and contaminants
• Anti-microbial and anti-fungal – treated with AguaGuard365 (powered by HeiQ ViroBlock)
• Martindale abrasion rating >100,000 rubs – certified for severe contract use
• Moisture vapour permeable – breathable for greater comfort

These properties make Libra a dependable contract fabric across sectors that require both softness and resilience, including hospitality, senior living, leisure, and healthcare.

A Soft, Luxurious Pile for Welcoming Spaces

The hallmark of Libra is its rich pile and soft handle, designed to deliver a premium seating experience in environments where comfort matters. Its deep, tactile surface adds dimension and warmth to upholstered furniture, helping to shape interiors that feel more relaxed and inviting.

Applications include:

• Lounge chairs and sofas
• Feature headboards and wall panels
• Hotel and cruise public areas
• Senior living and wellness furniture

Whether used in statement pieces or as a soft counterpoint to sleek finishes, Libra brings comfort and visual richness to contract interiors.

Libra is available in an impressive range of 24+ colourways, offering tones that span from bold and dramatic to calm and neutral. The palette includes:

• Deep shades such as Navy, Charcoal, Claret, and Midnight

This broad selection supports zoned layouts, brand integration, and layered material schemes across diverse interior projects.

• Hotels and cruise liners – offering a soft, durable solution for lounges and cabins
