With the help of colours, textures and different expressions, they can create harmonious and welcoming environments and, perhaps most importantly, inspire you to feel motivated and productive.
At Götessons, we are highly committed to quality, aesthetics and functionality when it comes to textiles. One of our goals is to offer a broad and varied range of carefully selected upholstery and screen textiles suitable for all types of interior solutions, work environments and public spaces.

QUALITY AND ENVIRONMENT
Different interiors and areas of use place different demands on textiles, and this is something you should consider when choosing your favorites. Below, we have created a short guide to help you make the right choice, including a brief description of the most common testing methods and what the results can tell you about the textile’s properties.
Martindale
Martindale is one of the most commonly used methods in Europe for evaluating a fabric’s durability. The method simulates natural wear on the material, and a higher value indicates better resistance to abrasion. For spaces with high traffic and intensive use, we recommend a Martindale value of at least 40,000.
Pilling
Pilling is a phenomenon that occurs during use and is caused by abrasion on the textile surface. Pills are small formations of lint and tangled fibers attached to the surface. Textiles have varying tendencies to pill, and this tendency can be evaluated through specific test methods. The result is measured on a scale from 1–5, where 5 represents a very low tendency to pill.
Fire Test
The purpose of fire testing is to provide insight into a fabric’s ignitability and flame spread. Standards define how quickly fire may spread in a product for it to be considered safe. Unfortunately, there is no single international standard for upholstery and screen fabrics, but rather many different regulations, standards, and methods.
Light Fastness
Describes the fabric’s ability to retain its color and resist fading when exposed to daylight and UV light. The textile is rated on an 8-point scale where 8 is the best result. By choosing a fabric with a light fastness rating of at least 5, the risk of visible changes is significantly reduced. 5 is the lowest accepted value among our fabrics and indicates very good light fastness.
Color Fastness to Rubbing
Evaluates the degree of color transfer from the textile/fabric surface to another surface. The result is determined through rubbing in wet and dry conditions. The evaluation is graded on a 5-level scale where a higher value indicates better resistance.
Environment
We always strive to find the most environmentally friendly alternatives for our range. Many of our textiles carry the Oeko-Tex certification, and several are also certified with the EU Ecolabel and the Nordic Swan Ecolabel.
