Fiqa, which stands for “Fabrics, Innovative, Quality, Anywhere,” is coming to the North American market with Four Hands. Fiqa can be used on both indoor and outdoor products, is made from fully recyclable materials, and uses a water-free solution dying process for long-lasting, fade resistant, and eco-friendly color.
“Four Hands customers already know us for superb design, the finest materials, and precise craftsmanship. With this exciting exclusive partnership to launch Fiqa, we are showing our commitment to the next generation of fabric,” said Rick Lovegrove, President of Upholstery for Four Hands.
“We continue to lead the way in upholstery design while upping the ante, offering the highest levels of performance matched with sustainability. Buyers can feel totally comfortable knowing that the product is easy on the earth and our designers are inspired by the endless possibilities of this revolutionary fabric.”
All Fiqa products are UV-resistant, water-repellent, bleach-cleanable, pet-friendly, antifungal, and free of PFCs (per- and poly-fluorinated chemicals), which are commonly found in water-repellent coatings.
Four Hands is introducing Fiqa to the North American market through its partnership with Fiqa’s manufacturer, Love Home Fabrics, based in Belgium.
Gregory Tack, CEO at Love Home Fabrics added, “An innovative product should be launched with an innovative partner, and we could not imagine a better fit for Fiqa than Four Hands. Four Hands was one of our first customers in the U.S. and since day one has been one of our most effective and esteemed collaborators.
“Always going above and beyond, our teams work in an integrated way to realize amazing trend-setting accomplishments. The Four Hands fall collection truly demonstrates the great potential of Fiqa, with upholstery fit for both indoors and outdoors and taking inspiration from all over the world.”
Some of the standout productions of the collection with Fiqa include their Tavi Sofa featuring Fiqa Boucle in Natural, the Elliana Swivel Chair featuring Fiqa Boucle in Olive, the Sora Dining Armchair featuring Fiqa Boucle in Cream, and their Brylee 5-piece sectional sofa featuring Fiqa Boucle in charcoal.
