Welcome at Chieftainfabrics

We are specialized in the design of high quality fabrics and contract upholstery for over more than 60 years. With our unique mix of specialist knowledge, innovative research and development and the best raw materials, we produce our high quality Chieftain vinyl. It is easy to implement and it looks amazing.

Industries

Because of the high quality of Chieftain vinyl, it can be used in many different industries, like contract, hospitality, education, airports, health care, stadium and outdoor. Some examples where you can find our fabrics are the Birmingham children’s hospital, Dublin Airport or the stadium of Chelsea FC.

Chieftain distinguishes itself from other vinyl in its strength of 500.000 Martindale. Moreover, the collections are antimicrobial, phthalate free and fire retardant with in particular the Just Colour collection with a Crib 7 certificate.

Chieftain collections

There are six collections that each have their own advantages. In this way, there is always a Chieftain fabric for your project. Our collections are:

• Just Colour
  The main collection has a wide range of colours and they have a Crib 7 certificate.
• Just Patterns
  With cheerful patterns for extra appearance.
• Lionella 
  Lionella contains 15% PU for an ultra soft feel.
• Carino
  The honeycomb pattern gives the fabric a playful effect, but it is still easy to clean.
• Chieftain
  This classic collection has various patterns, grains and colours.
• Multistretch
  As the backing of this collection contains lycra, the fabric is 8 way stretch but still strong with 500.000 Martindale.
• Pasha
  Pasha is a soft, lightweight addition to the Chieftain range. Its unusual grain makes it feel akin to woven linen and its soft handle and pliability make it a favourite with upholsterers.

If you are looking for a specific colour or grain, we can produce it especially for you with a minimum order quantity of 500 meters.

Ecological vinyl

In our opinion it is important to protect our planet. A sustainable future for our company and for our product is needed to keep developing. It is our aim to develop a high quality fabric with as little impact as possible on the environment. No matter how difficult this is.

Only biological cotton is used for our products. This leads to 36% less CO2 emissions, less pesticides in nature and less use of water. We use natural pigments that do not contain heavy metals or phthalate. Recycling is what we like. The polyester threads for the backing are made of recycled plastic bottles. We recycle 500 kg of PVC on a monthly bases. This can be used to produce rain boots for example.
