Spacer


Spacer is a high-tech upholstery fabric with a three-dimensional look. Visually, it appears to be three separate fabrics that have been connected. This look is achieved by a complex knitting process allowing all layers to be knitted at once which makes it incredibly strong. This structure makes the fabric thick without being too dense. Consequently, Spacer is a very comfortable fabric to sit on.

This fabric is available in five bright colors. The bright colors are achieved by digitally printing the color onto the fabric. This also enhances the three-dimensional appearance because the color is sprayed through the top surface. Spraying, as opposed to piece dyeing, allows the middle layer to remain white.
