MILANO FABRIC Sand MI04

MILANO is a high-pile velvet with a volume you feel before you see it: the hand is soft and deep, and the surface shifts in tone depending on which way you stroke it.
It is the fullest of our fabrics — 2.1 mm thick — and passes 90,000 Martindale cycles, more than twice what an upholstery fabric is usually asked for.

• High pile: A long, dense pile that gives the surface volume and makes it soft under the hand.
• Substantial: A thickness of 2.1 mm and over a kilo per metre: you feel the weight while you work it.
• Durability off the scale: Over 90,000 Martindale cycles, more than twice what a home sofa needs.
• Depth of colour: The high pile holds the light and gives the shades a depth that smooth fabrics never reach.

Milano is noticed for its softness before its colour: it is a fabric people reach out to touch.

Certified quality, tested in every detail
Our fabrics undergo strict quality controls at every stage of production. Only after passing rigorous technical tests do they earn the most important certifications at European level. A guarantee of reliability for anyone looking for materials that are beautiful, high-performing and compliant with the highest standards.

The colour Sand

Sand is not the pale sand the name suggests: it is a dark taupe, a brown muted by grey. On the high pile it gains a warm depth, and it stays among the most forgiving colours in the range with dust and marks.

In everyday language Sand belongs to the taupes: if you are looking for taupe fabric, grey-brown velvet or dark taupe fabric, the PellTex reference is Milano Fabric in Sand.
