Brookvale Modern Linen Lounge Chair With Black Metal Legs

Linen Upholstered Lounge Chair

Linen effect upholstery, an innovative fabric, emulates the organic charm of genuine linen while offering distinct advantages for lounge chairs. Creating the synthetic linen fabric for our lounge chair upholstery involves a multi-step process that ensures quality and durability. 

Our manufacturing process first starts with a base fabric blend, which is composed of high-quality polyester and cotton which provides stability and structure. These fibres are then spun into yarns. Next, the yarns are woven into fabric on advanced looms, using patterns like plain or herringbone. 

Finally, the linen fabric undergoes finishing processes, which include softening and ironing to enhance its texture and appearance, and the application of a stain-resistant treatment, resulting in a versatile and attractive material that combines the classic look of linen with the resilience required for everyday use in our lounge chair upholstery. 

Key Benefits

• Durability: The linen effect upholstery boasts impressive resistance to wear & tear, wrinkles, and abrasion, ensuring that your lounge chair maintains a well-kept appearance even with frequent use. This durability contributes to the longevity of your furniture, making it a reliable and enduring choice for multiple settings.
• Aesthetic Appeal: The linen effect upholstery beautifully replicates the timeless beauty of natural linen - the detailed texture and visual richness of linen infuse your home with an understated elegance and sophistication.
• Soft and breathable: Our polyester linen offers good air permeability due to the open spaces within the woven structure.This allows for sufficient air circulation for comfortable wear, ensuring that your seating experience remains enjoyable and pleasant, even during longer sessions.
• Easy Maintenance: The stain-resistant treatment of our linen effect upholstery simplifies maintenance, offering a hassle-free solution. Minor spills & stains can be easily wiped away, allowing you to enjoy stress-free use while keeping your chair looking pristine and inviting.
• Quick Drying: In the event of mild spills, our linen effect fabric exhibits rapid drying characteristics, minimising the risk of water damage or mould formation. This quick-drying feature adds practicality, ensuring that your lounge chair remains resilient and free from potential long-term effects of moisture exposure.
• Fire Retardancy: Our linen fabric upholstery is fire-resistance tested, complying with the UK fire safety standards for your peace of mind.

Care guide

• General Cleaning: Preserve the pristine appearance of your linen effect chair by incorporating a routine of regular vacuuming or gentle brushing. This simple yet effective practice helps to eliminate accumulated dust and debris, preventing them from settling into the fabric and maintaining the overall cleanliness and aesthetic appeal of your lounge chairs.
• Avoid Harsh Cleaning Agents: Uphold the longevity of your linen effect upholstery by avoiding harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners. These substances can potentially damage the fabric and compromise its integrity over time. Opt for gentler cleaning methods to ensure the material's resilience and long-lasting beauty.
• Spot Cleaning: For minor spills, a damp cloth paired with a mild detergent, preferably pH-balanced, proves effective. Gently blot the stained area, ensuring not to rub, and follow up by blotting with a clean, dry cloth to remove excess moisture. 
• Avoid Excessive Moisture: While our polyester linen is water-resistant to a degree, prolonged exposure to moisture can lead to discolouration or peeling. Avoid using excessive water during cleaning.

Foam Cushioning

This lounge chair is fitted with thoughtfully crafted foam cushioning, made from high-quality polyurethane foam. The manufacturing process is extensive, starting with the precise combination of chemical ingredients like polyols and isocyanates. This controlled reaction produces a foam-like material. By introducing gas, we expand this mixture, resulting in lightweight yet supportive, body-conforming foam. 

The foam is then cut and shaped to fit the chair's design. To ensure durability, we subject the foam to extensive testing, including compression and abrasion tests. These tests simulate the wear and tear the foam might experience during everyday use, such as people sitting and getting up from the chair.

Buying Guide

Style: Choose a lounge chair that complements the overall style of your room. For instance, a bouclé or velvet armchair with black legs would suit a contemporary living room, while a wingback lounge chair would enhance a traditional space. 

Colour: For a cohesive look, aim for lounge chairs with neutral tones, or similar materials/finishes as your existing sofa and dining chairs. However, you can also use the lounge chair as a pop of colour to add personality to your space.

Measure Your Space: Consider your available space when selecting a lounge chair. Measure the dimensions carefully to ensure the chair fits comfortably without making the area feel cramped - aim for around 45cm-60cm of space around the chair or walls for easy passage. This will contribute to a more open and inviting atmosphere but also allows the placement of additional furnishings like a side table. 

Ways to incorporate a lounge chair into your home

• Living Room Staple: Create a relaxing space for activities like reading, meditating, or simply enjoying a quiet moment of peace and reflection by placing a lounge chair in a corner, near a window or fireplace. With good natural light and minimal distractions, it can become the perfect spot to unwind, de-stress or enjoy a cup of tea.
• Bedroom Retreat: Lounge chairs create a separate space from your bed for a dedicated "me-time" spot for reading, journaling, or listening to music. They can also serve as a temporary spot for laying out clothes or holding items at the end of the day, reducing clutter around your room. 
• Conversation Corner: Craft a cohesive communal area in your living room by positioning the lounge chair near a sofa or other seating arrangements, establishing an intimate space for you to catch up with your loved ones. 
• Home Office Comfort: A lounge chair can create a comfortable and stylish workspace for reading documents, taking calls, or enjoying a break from your desk. The plush & weight-absorbing seating offered by our lounge chairs can also make working on your laptop a more enjoyable and productive experience.
