If It’s Not Broke, Don’t Fix It!!!


Through the years the mentality has changed about the worth and value of a piece of furniture or appliance. A generation ago, the concept was that you bought it once, and if it broke, it would be repaired. While the current generation is not entirely adhering to this concept, the idea of reducing waste and saving money is important to most people. With the economy being what it is, few people can afford to redecorate or buy new furniture. Because of this it is important to care for existing furniture so that it will look its best until time and finances allow for a new design. Nothing makes a couch look older and rattier than multiple stains, tears and thin spots in the fabric.

In the past, Textile Armor only offered its fabric protection line to clients who had just purchased their furniture. But now we have extended our products to be available to anyone who has a piece of furniture that they would like to preserve. Our fabric protection line will repel stains and reduce the look and feel of everyday wear and tear. Our fabric protection line creates an invisible barrier between your fabric and anything that would like to destroy it. These products are essential to anyone who does a lot of entertaining, has children or pets.

Many people are hesitant to invest in furniture that is not new, however the product line at Textile Armor is incredibly competitive when compared to other products. If you would like more information about how to protect your furniture, please do not hesitate to give us a call!

Are you a designer??

For all you designers, you know the feeling of satisfaction when you finally finish a beautiful room and the client signs off on the project. However, most of us know that the room will never look as beautiful as it did the day that it is completed. Obviously rooms are meant to be enjoyed AND lived in, however depending on the type of furniture used-it may not be able to stand up to the demands of the client’s and their household.

At Textile Armor, our goal is to provide a quality product that will allow people to enjoy their furniture for years to come. Because of this, Textile Armor has developed a unique program specifically for designers. This program allows interior designers to offer an additional service to their clients in the form of “preserving and protecting” their furniture. Through the years, we have partnered with dozens of designers who have then had an opportunity to resell our product line to their clients. This program and partnership has proven to be mutually beneficial.

Partnering with designers not only allows us to expand our base of product, but it also allows designers to offer a unique service to their clients. Essentially, this is a hassle free process for the designer. If the designer recommends Textile Armor to their client, we will deliver the product and in turn as a thank you for the referral give you a percentage of the total job. It is not necessary to stock any product and you do not have to do anything other than refer clients to Textile Armor. If you are a designer and would like to expand the services that you offer clients to include wood, fabric and leather protection, please do not hesitate to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!
