Why specify Flora Maverick velvet for contract upholstery
Flora Maverick is specified for contract upholstery where a higher level of ignition performance is required, including BS 5852 ignition source 0, 1 & 5 (Crib 5). It also includes additional compliance listings for wider specification needs (see the full list in the specifications section and the certificates in the spec tab).
The fabric is described as phthalate-free and REACH compliant, aligning with projects where chemical compliance is part of the procurement requirement.

Best suited for
- Hotel and hospitality seating, lounge furniture, and headboards (where upholstery standards apply)
- Healthcare and care environments specifying Crib 5 upholstery
- Education and public spaces requiring durable upholstery performance
- Cushions and loose covers where abrasion and rub fastness are key spec points
Who uses Flora Maverick velvet upholstery fabric
