FibreGuard Pro | World class in healthcare & hospitality

“LONG-TERM, FIBREGUARD PRO IS KINDER TO YOUR BOTTOM LINE BECAUSE THERE IS RARELY CAUSE TO ENGAGE A COMMERCIAL CLEANER WHEN, FOR EXAMPLE, A PATRON SPILLS COFFEE ON THE SEAT.”

FibreGuard Pro embodies the inherent stain protection of FibreGuard, with additional water-repellent and anti-microbial technologies. These properties allow it to shine in the high-traffic industries of healthcare and hospitality, where accidents are frequent and cleanability is a priority.

Whether your hospitality business is a motel, hotel, café, or restaurant, the overheads are high. Unlike other easy-to-clean fabrics, the stain-resistant finish of FibreGuard is permanent for the life of the fabric. This means that the stain-free properties in our fabrics will not deteriorate after washing or prolonged use and with proper care, they will withstand the most punishing treatment in any commercial setting.

The yarns are coated with an anti-microbial solution that acts as a barrier against stains. The anti-moisture membrane is flexible and breathable, it creates hydrophobicity across the surface and is bonded to the fabric during manufacturing and finishing. Liquids and bacteria are unable to attach themselves to the yarn or the upholstery foam, protecting FibreGuard Pro from mildew and bad odours caused by accidental spills.

Long-term, FibreGuard Pro is kinder to your bottom line because there is rarely cause to engage a commercial cleaner when, for example, a patron spills coffee on the seat. The staff can remove the stain with misted water and soap, while the breathable layer on the fabric’s surface prevents the spillage from seeping into the upholstery foam, where smells can become trapped and revisit you on hot days.

James Dunlop Textiles is a wholesale supplier for the furniture trade. Please contact your nearest retailer to specify our products or contact us to open a trade account.

We’ve developed a deep-seated knowledge of interior textiles in our 110-year history. We’re interested in different ways of living, and we’re constantly exploring what fabrics can bring to people’s lives. And life has always informed what we do. 

We believe in fabrics that have a unique viewpoint, born from a curiosity about the world. Fabrics with a sense of purpose. Fabrics that are crafted with passion, and embrace the lives spent on and around them. Fabric that spans trends, generations and cultures. The fabric of life.

Our Story
James Dunlop Textiles was founded in 1907 in the bustling port of Dunedin, New Zealand as a supplier of European fabric to retailers. From a dynasty of Freemen and textile merchants based in the Scottish countryside close to the border of Northern England, a commitment to quality design and performance ensured longevity for company and product alike.

Over a century later, the fourth generation Dunlop family governs this innovative design-based organisation across the Asia- Pacific region. With a strong focus on sustainable textile excellence, coupled with world-class logistics and service, the company enjoys industry accolades and support from a wide base of global retail and interior design customers.

“We are proud of our history and legacy; delivering excellence and a sustainable future to the textile industry. We are passionate about quality fabrics, and have been for a very long time.”

Design Studios
James Dunlop Textiles has three design studios – Sydney, Auckland & Melbourne. By virtue of their locations, these studios have important access to two of our key markets and the ability to explore and forecast design trends.

Bursting with creativity, the studios and their team's research, develop and customise fabric and wallpaper from conception to market entry. Their ability to work with international suppliers and view textiles within the greater design context provides an essential service to the company and our customers.

At James Dunlop Textiles we are interested in different ways of living. We’re constantly exploring what fabric can bring to people’s life. We view the world through a uniquely Australasian lens, so in designing and curating our collections we look both outwards and inwards.

Being on-trend is compulsory, but as important to us is being relevant to the environmental and situational usage that our fabrics will be exposed to. Whether it Christchurch, Canberra or California, our textiles have been purposely designed to perform and look great.

Our Culture
We’re a people business and we’re relationship-driven. Our suppliers, and most importantly our customers like to know that our people care and are passionate about the product and level of service they provide.

We have a fabulous team of talented individuals who work together at all levels to achieve the vision and goals of James Dunlop Textiles.
