Every aspect of manufacturing is controlled at the Mariaflora mill and manufacturing facility in Biella Italy, a city in the northern region of Piedmont, at the foothills of the Alps and about 50 miles northwest of Milan, where roots in textile production run deep. Mariaflora indoor/outdoor performance fabrics are woven from a superior selection of 100% solution-dyed acrylic fibers, and have an exceptionally soft hand, making them ideal for indoor as well as outdoor use. They are stain-resistant and bleach-cleanable, oil- and water-repellent, and have superior fade resistance.
