Extremis utilised the impressive waterproof credentials of Morbern’s Sundance coated fabrics to double the colour options of their latest all-weather sofa system, Walrus
As the days grow longer and warmer, there is a temptation to spend more of them outside, though sometimes open-air relaxation comes at a price. Outdoor cushions provide soft seating but, with many made from moisture-averse materials, spring afternoons often end the same way, with a frantic cushion-dash relay.
Morbern produces durable, all-weather materials that stand up to the elements in a variety of the most extreme applications and sectors such as public transport, recreational vehicles and even boating. So when the Belgian high-end outdoor furniture manufacturer Extremis needed a more colourful base option for its Walrus seating range, they selected Morbern’s Sundance coated fabrics. ‘Thanks to Morbern’s Sundance, Walrus is water and weather resistant. Its robust, low-maintenance features go hand in hand with a soft, colourful design.’ states Extremis Marketing Manager, Lien Sinnesael.
Walrus’ Safari People colour combination uses the smooth texture and depth of Morbern’s Sundance as a canvas to add character with splashes of rust and carmine
Walrus’ innovative design allows it to hide away a comfortable blanket cover along with a trio of cushions in a watertight compartment, away from untimely summer rain. The moment the sun decides to shine, however, there’s no need to mess around with protective covers or send a search party for hidden cushions. Walrus’ additional comforts are unrolled from inside the sofa itself, atop its pristine Sundance PVC base.
Subtle and natural aren’t the only hats Sundance can wear. With 41 other durable colours available, the coated fabric suits applications in multiple sectors
With Extremis’ Sundance-clad sofas available in subtle Chalk and a light sandy Safari, its five separate elements present a mind-boggling number of colour combinations. Attempting to mix and match them feels a lot like trying to solve a Rubik’s Cube – without tearing the little strips off. For an easier life, Extremis has produced a curated selection of combinations that complement Morbern’s Chalk and Safari PVC fabric beautifully.
With a Sundance-upholstered base unit, Walrus will stand up to both high-pressure cleaning power and the powerful elements of outdoor living, without breaking sweat or seats.
