Experience unparalleled performance with through the Designtex Crypton Upholstery Fabrics, available exclusively through Hume Internationale — where advanced textile technology meets refined design. Engineered for demanding commercial and residential environments, Crypton fabrics combine permanent protection with exceptional comfort and style.

Each fabric is built with integrated moisture barriers, permanent stain and odour resistance, and repellency to liquids, soil, and microbial growth, ensuring long-lasting cleanliness and durability. Unlike surface-treated textiles, Crypton’s patented encapsulation technology bonds performance at the molecular level, creating a breathable, impenetrable barrier that prevents liquids from penetrating while allowing air flow for comfort.

Tested to exceed 100,000 double rubs for abrasion and meeting ACT Performance Guidelines, Crypton fabrics are also bleach-cleanable, PFAS-free, and free from added antimicrobials — delivering safer, more sustainable protection. Ideal for hospitality, healthcare, aged care, education, and high-traffic interiors, Crypton ensures furniture remains hygienic and beautiful even under constant use.

With an extensive palette of textures and colours — from plush chenilles and woven tweeds to sophisticated solids — the Designtex Crypton collection empowers designers to achieve both elevated aesthetics and uncompromising performance.
