Volar Bio | Cafe Noir

Upholstery fabrics from Ultrafabrics

Product description

Introduced in 2019 and designed to support eco-friendly specifications, Volar Bio is Ultrafabrics’ first biobased collection. Blending renewable plant-based materials into our multi-layer construction reduces our dependence on finite resources, without sacrificing durability or easy maintenance. The unique matte surface features a subtle organic texture with a semi-lustrous base. Available in a selection of natural hues, Volar Bio was created for the designs of tomorrow.

Volar Bio proudly touts a 29% Bio Preferred Program Label. It received the Innovation award in the 2020 PETA UK Vegan Homeware awards and won the textile category of the 2021 Good Design Awards.

In pursuit of our goal to include at least 50% renewable and/or recycled resources across all collections, the backcloth of Volar Bio will transition to include recycled polyester and responsibly sourced rayon.
