Why We Offer Both Sunbrella and Tempotest Fabrics

At Outdoor Custom Cushions, our East Tennessee family-owned and operated facility proudly carries both Sunbrella and Tempotest – two of the world's leading premium performance fabrics. They are remarkably similar in quality and capabilities, both delivering exceptional durability and beauty for outdoor living. This gives you even more options to create custom cushions that perfectly suit your style and needs.

How Sunbrella and Tempotest Compare

Both brands are 100% solution-dyed acrylic fabrics, meaning the color is infused into the fibers during manufacturing for unbeatable fade resistance – far superior to surface-dyed alternatives.

Key shared benefits:



1. Superior Fade and Weather Resistance: Stand up to intense sun, rain, wind, and chlorine without losing vibrancy.
2. Stain and Mildew Resistant: Easy to clean with just soap and water (or bleach for tough spots).
3. Water Repellent: Spills bead up and wipe away.
4. Long Warranties: Sunbrella offers up to 10 years on many lines; Tempotest provides 5-6 years against fading and wear.

What sets them apart?

• Sunbrella (American-made excellence): The industry benchmark with a massive selection of solids, textures, and patterns – perfect for classic, bold, or contemporary looks.

• Tempotest (Italian-crafted elegance): Known for sophisticated European designs, unique textures, and patterns like intricate stripes, geometrics, and tweeds. It often features advanced finishes like Teflon or EcoShield for extra oil and dirt repellency.
