Frequently asked questions
Who designed the Hanabi pattern?
The pattern was created by Elodie Blanchard, a Brooklyn-based artist known for constructing intricate floral compositions from repurposed textile scraps. Blanchard's original artwork was digitally printed onto the polyurethane substrate and sealed with a 100% silicone face layer to preserve its colour richness.
What does the silicone face contribute to performance?
The 100% silicone face is inherently graffiti-free and achieves 300,000+ double rubs (Wyzenbeek), making Hanabi one of the more durable options in the Concertex upholstery range. Silicone is also inherently cleanable, and many stains can be removed by wiping with a clean cloth before any cleaning solution is needed.
How large is the pattern repeat on Hanabi?
Hanabi has a 54 cm vertical and 60 cm horizontal pattern repeat, which should be accounted for when calculating fabric requirements for multi-seat or panelled upholstery projects.
