Faq (Frequently Asked Questions)
It is an extremely fine synthetic fiber that can be woven into textiles with the texture and drape of natural-fiber cloth but with enhanced washability, breathability, and water repellency.
Microfiber fabrics are generally lightweight (being a variety of polyester with extremely thin filaments).
They resist wrinkling and retain their shape. They have the advantage of being relatively stronger than other fabrics of similar weight.
They have a low cost, a great feel and are easy to clean and maintain.
Denier is the term used to define the diameter or fineness of a continuous or filament fiber such as silk. It is the weight in grams of a 9000-meter length of fiber or yarn. The higher the number, the thicker the fiber. In order to be called a "microfiber", the fiber must be less than one denier. Fine silk, for example, is approximately 1.25 denier. A microfiber would need to be 0.9 denier or finer. Many microfibers are 0.5 to 0.6 denier.
Because microfibers are so fine, many fibers can be packed together very tightly. With many more fine fibers required to form a yarn, greater fiber surface area results in deeper, richer and brighter colors. The finest microfiber is remaking the world of fashion. For industrial uses, manufactured fibers relentlessly replace traditional materials.

Historically, the use of fiber was limited to fibers available in the natural world. However, cotton and linen wrinkles from use and frequent washings; Silk requires delicate handling; Wool, was irritating to the touch. Only a century ago, rayon - the first manufactured fiber - was developed. Fiber chemistry began. Manufactured (man-made) fibers are now found in many uses, such as home furnishings. One of these developments is "microfiber", which is increasing in popularity for furniture. Microfiber is a man-made material. It is made by combining two basic fibers, polyester and polyamide (a nylon by product).
