Product Info

  • How do I clean and maintain Perennials products?

    All Perennials products are made with 100% Perennials solution-dyed acrylic, making clean-up easy! Refer to the links below for cleaning demonstrations and instructions.

    Care & Support

    If you prefer to have your fabrics or rugs professionally cleaned, it is important to inform the service that the fibers are 100% solution-dyed acrylic.

  • Can bleach be used on Perennials products?

    Chlorine bleach will not affect the coloration of the solution-dyed acrylic fiber and is therefore acceptable for stubborn stain removal, including mildew. Chlorine bleach, strong chemicals or harsh detergents will eventually affect the strength of any fiber or cloth, so we suggest a diluted solution of one part bleach to two parts water. Thorough rinsing is essential.

    Please note that chlorine bleach is never recommended as a stain remover for printed fabrics or natural fibers (i.e. hemp), as it will affect the coloration of the print or natural fiber.

    Care & Support

  • Can additional finishes be applied to Perennials products?

    Most Perennials fabrics have a performance,  soil-resistant finish, so additional finishes are not needed. Backing may be applied to Perennials fabrics and customers should consult their workrooms regarding the suitability and type of backing to be used. Please note that application of any third-party finish voids the Perennials warranty and products will not be returnable.

  • What does the Perennials warranty cover?

    Perennials 100% solution-dyed acrylic fabrics, trimming and rugs are backed by a no-fade guarantee valid for three years from the date of purchase*. The warranty does not cover degradation from normal wear, stains from environmental pollution, negligence or weather soiling.

    * Printed fabrics hold a one year warranty, and Cabana fabric has a five year warranty.

    Warranty

  • How do I submit a warranty claim?

    Contact your Perennials representative or Perennials Customer Service for warranty claim information.

  • What is Perennials performance finish?

    The Perennials performance finish is a non-hazardous soil-resistant finish applied to upholstery fabrics for an extra layer of protection against the sometimes harsh and unpredictable elements. The finish is applied through a submersion process after the fabric is woven, which ensures it is protected on both sides. More than just a coating, the Perennials performance finish is molecularly bonded with the fibers, providing long-lasting protection, even after repeated washings.

  • What is Perennials’ environmental stance?

    Perennials advocates for caring of the environment as a major part of its company culture, and is committed to producing textiles in an environmentally responsible way. The water used during the fiber manufacturing process is purified and returned to its natural source. Environmentally friendly natural gas provides the energy needed to generate steam and electricity for multiple aspects of the fiber production. Waste is safely recycled through incineration, with the heat being used as an additional energy source for our steam network. Water used in the finishing of our products is purified, which allows for 50% of the water to be used for such things as landscape irrigation and 50% to be recycled back to the finishing process for reuse.

    Statement of Safety

  • Do Perennials products contain PFOA/PFOS?

    No! Perennials certifies that all fabrics and finishes are free of perfluorooctanoic (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic (PFOS) acids.

    Statement of Safety

  • Can Perennials products go in the washing machine?

    Yes, most Perennials fabrics may be cleaned in a washing machine. We recommend a cool water, gentle cycle setting. Air dry. Casements, velvets or prints should never be machine washed.

    We recommend allowing for 3-5% possible fabric adjustment (shrinkage or expansion) due to climatic conditions, end use, and/or washing procedures. Pre-washing may be suitable for some applications.

  • How do I obtain information on flammability and abrasion testing?

    We put our products to the test, subjecting them to the harshest conditions to meet your standards. Test results and certificates from accredited labs are available upon request. Please contact your Perennials representative or Perennials Customer Service for further information.

  • Do you provide custom design services?
