The strength of the fabric, also known as abrasion resistance, is determined by the world-recognized “Martindale” fabric rub test. During this test, a sample of fabric is pressed against metal discs and rubbed at a certain speed in a circular motion until at least two threads of fabric are broken. Test results are presented in number of cycles. The more cycles, the more resistant is the fabric. The fabric may be used for furniture if the result of this test is more than 5000 rubbing cycles.
