No. Outdoor fabric can be water-repellent, water-resistant, waterproof, UV-focused, abrasion-focused, or simply suitable for an outdoor use case. Proof depends on the item.
Outdoor fabric
Outdoor fabric for furniture, jacket, lining, and performance sourcing.
Haida reviews outdoor fabric requests by application, base construction, water resistance, UV, abrasion, handfeel, finish, quantity, and proof requirement.
Application-led route
Outdoor fabric must be split by use before it can be quoted.
Outdoor sofa fabric, patio upholstery fabric, outdoor jacket fabric, shell fabric, lining fabric, and performance fabric can require different constructions and proof.
This page helps buyers clarify whether the brief is furniture, apparel, lining, bag, commercial textile, or another outdoor-related application.
