Superior Seating Comfort

Due to its unique construction, Dymetrol suspension fabrics actively distribute weight evenly across its entire surface, with the full face of the fabric acting as a spring set. This helps to improve passenger comfort, especially on longer journeys.

The elastomeric recovery of Dymetrol gives consistent performance with no sagging or deformation. Its heat-set woven construction delivers measured flex and recovery time after time, with no creep within the fabric.
