History
CF Stinson started in 1952. From our beginnings as a family-run textile distributor for furniture manufacturers and upholsters in the Detroit area, we’ve become one of the top distributors of high performance fabrics and vinyl upholstery in the country.

Since the early 2000’s we’ve worked to bring original designs to the market through collaborations with notable architects and the Stinson Design Studio. Today our commitment to hard work, quality, innovation and service is evident in our relationships with thousands of customers, hundreds of patterns, and more than 50 industry awards in the last 10 years.

Innovation
Several of our patterns have received awards for innovation and design. Our commitment to quality extends to bringing a new level of performance to the industry by pioneering new technologies and offering patterns like: Apex Crypton Revl, Project ACS, EnVi, and Fit by Polartec.

Our first website launched in 2000 and based on interest from our customers the digital imaging technology we developed for that site evolved into a stand-alone company, Sample Technologies, LLC. Sample Technologies has since been awarded 3 patents with several others pending. Today Sample Technologies provides sampling and imaging support to industry partners and retailers in multiple verticals.
