What role does the 'micro eco cover' mentioned in the sofa description play?
When reading the description of the internal materials wrapping the inside of a sofa, seeing the unfamiliar material name micro eco cover can make one wonder what functions it has.
The micro eco cover is an inner cover that protects the inside of the sofa by blocking contaminants and fine dust with its dense structure while allowing air to circulate.
It refers to an internal protective fabric that wraps filling materials such as foam and cotton right beneath the outer upholstery of the sofa. flat point covers sofas with the micro eco cover to protect the inside of the sofa from contaminants and keep even the inner part clean[1].
A dense fiber structure is key. It works by tightly blocking fine dust or dust mites from penetrating deep into the sofa[2]. When the gaps in the fabric are smaller than water droplets, it can repel contaminants while still letting air pass through. The brand explains that it is an eco-friendly material that blocks the penetration of water and contaminants while allowing air to circulate naturally[3].
Because sofa cushions are compressed and released every time a person sits down and stands up, if there is no breathability, the cushioning can easily feel dull or moisture can get trapped inside. By having both a waterproof barrier and a breathable structure, it helps maintain the elasticity and hygiene of the internal materials for a long time.
The specific fiber composition and certified waterproof test rating of the micro eco cover have not yet been confirmed.
