Agua Fabrics are delighted to showcase new fabric collections and colourways at the prestigious Sleep Event, The Business Design Centre in London.This years event sees the launch of the Sark Upholstery Fabric Collection. Unbelievably soft with a velvety feel, the Sark collection is made up of 16 alluring colours from a warm mauve and wine to the cool yet striking tones of zest and sky. The integration of a subtle two tone effect is certain to appeal to Designers, Specifiers and Operators looking to bring style and sophistication to seating and headboard projects within contract environments.

In addition, Agua is introducing 2 stunning new designs, Atlas & Gems, to the Mystique collection of metallic faux leathers. An antique look with a metallic finish for the Atlas design and a dramatic kaleidoscope effect for the Gems offers the chance to create a special finish for all upholstery projects whether it be for seating, upholstered panelling or headboards.

Further colourways have been added to the Aries and Lunar faux leather collections, increasing the colour palette to an incredible 140 options; this makes the Agua faux leathers one of the largest collections currently available to the commercial sector in the UK. New colours and patterns are currently under development to make the offering even wider to meet the changing trends in style and fashion.

The soft fabrics are not being ignored either with new colourways being added to the phenomenally successful Agua Juno, Libra and Linetta collections. As the benefits of technical fabrics to the hospitality sector become more apparent, the Agua collections are finding their way onto major projects within hotel bedroom schemes and public areas – a win win situation for Designers and Operators alike.

Agua invites you to visit stand M24B at The Sleep Event to meet the team, experience the fabric collections first hand and network with other industry colleagues.
