Sateen is a woven structure where the warp (vertical) yarns float over several weft (horizontal) yarns, minimizing the interruptions on the surface. This technique produces an extremely smooth, dense, and lustrous textile with a soft hand-feel. For upholstery, the Sateen weave is executed with a high thread count and dense yarn to ensure durability. The result is a fabric that offers a refined, slightly formal look with the practical benefit of resisting dirt penetration due to its smooth surface.

Refined Sheen and Silky Hand-Feel

Sateen fabrics are valued for their smooth, lustrous surface that offers a silk-like appearance without the fragility. Our high-density sateen upholstery material is designed to bring this refined aesthetic to seating, providing an easy-to-care-for alternative to traditional silks and velvets.

SUZHOU YIFAN TEXTILE CO., LTD. achieves the signature sateen finish through precise weaving on high-count air-jet looms and a specialized calendering process. We ensure the floating warp yarns are tightly controlled, maximizing the material's sheen and surface uniformity while retaining the underlying strength required for long-term upholstery use.

Elegant and Formal Settings

  • Formal Living Room Seating: Sofas and accent chairs where a sophisticated, light-reflecting surface is desired.

  • Dining Room Chair Seats: The smooth surface is easier to wipe clean than textured fabrics, making it suitable for dining areas.

  • Decorative Trim and Piping: Used as a coordinating or contrasting element for trim and welting due to its smooth hand and sheen.

  • Luxury Bedding and Throws: Fabric that provides a cool, smooth texture for decorative throws and bed skirts.

Aesthetic Superiority and Durability

  • High Luster: The long warp floats reflect light beautifully, giving the fabric a distinct, high-end sheen and a rich visual depth.

  • Dirt and Dust Resistance: The tight, smooth surface structure resists the embedment of dust and dirt particles better than open or textured weaves.

  • Soft, Cool Hand-Feel: The smooth surface provides a cool-to-the-touch sensation, highly prized in warmer climates.

  • Pilling and Snagging Resistance: The tight weave and smooth surface reduce the likelihood of pilling and snagging over time.

Common Buyer Inquiries

  • Q: Is the sateen weave prone to snagging or pulling?

  • A: While the long floats could theoretically snag, our high-density sateen uses tightly twisted yarns and a high thread count to minimize this risk, achieving high abrasion scores suitable for upholstery.

  • Q: Does the sheen diminish with cleaning?

  • A: For our polyester sateen, the luster is a permanent feature of the weave structure and the filament yarn itself, ensuring the sheen remains consistent through recommended cleaning methods.

  • Q: What is the difference between sateen and satin?

  • A: Satin is made with filament yarns and can be from various fibers; Sateen is often made with cotton or spun yarns (in our case, spun poly) and is specifically warp-face dominant, generally being heavier and more durable for upholstery.

Guide to Material Specification

Sateen quality is defined by its thread count and yarn:

  • Thread Count: Higher thread counts lead to greater density, superior sheen, and higher durability (e.g., 250+ threads per inch).

  • Yarn Denier: Finer denier yarns create a silkier, softer hand-feel; heavier denier yarns increase the material's bulk and robustness.

  • Backing: A non-woven backing is crucial to prevent the sateen from sliding or separating during cutting and stretching over a frame.
