This means you can choose any of our fabrics with the confidence that it will perform well in your space.

Only a handful of our fabrics are treated with a stain-repellent finish because synthetic fibers are inherently stain resistant. However, we think a few of our fabrics do better with this treatment, which causes moisture to bead on the surface and gives you more time to react before a stain sets.

ACT® Performance Guidelines
The Association for Contract Textiles (ACT) has five symbols to show if a fabric passes their recommended performance guidelines for contract environments like hotels, restaurants and offices. These symbols are included on all Room & Board fabrics where they apply. When a fabric meets all five performance guidelines including high-traffic abrasion, we recommend it for use in businesses. All of our fabrics perform beautifully in residential settings.
Fabric's ability to resist burning. All of our fabrics pass the California Technical Bulletin 117-2013 Section 1 standards without the use of flame retardant chemicals.
Fabric's tendency to transfer dye onto another surface when rubbed. This is measured in wet and dry environments on a scale of 1 to 5, with a 5 transferring the least dye. A grade 4 for dry and grade 3 for wet are the minimums recommended by ACT for contract settings.
Fabric's resistance to fading from light. This is measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with a 5 being the most fade resistant. ACT recommends a minimum colorfastness grade of 4 for contract spaces.
Overall durability, including a fabric's tendency to pill. Pilling is measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with a grade of 5 being the most resistant to pilling. A minimum grade of 3 is best for business environments.
Surface wear caused by friction. This is measured using a process called the Wyzenbeek method, in which a machine rubs a fabric back and forth until it shows signs of wear. 15,000 double rubs is the minimum grade for low-traffic spaces like a typical home, while 30,000 double rubs is ACT's guideline for contract environments.
