Frequently asked questions
What makes a fabric suitable for gym and fitness equipment?
Fitness upholstery fabrics must cope with constant contact, sweat and body oils, repeated cleaning and heavy abrasion — while staying comfortable for users. Monteiro's fitness fabrics are antimicrobial coated fabrics that are sweat- and oil-resistant, easy to wipe clean and rated for intensive daily use.
Are these fabrics antimicrobial and hygienic?
Yes — the collection inhibits the growth of bacteria, fungi and mould on the fabric surface, helping keep shared, high-contact gym seating and equipment hygienic between uses.
Do they resist sweat and body oils?
Yes. The coated, non-absorbent surface resists sweat, body oils and moisture, so liquids sit on top and wipe away rather than soaking in or staining the fabric.
Can they be cleaned with gym disinfectant wipes?
Yes. The surface is designed to be wiped down with the disinfectant wipes and sprays commonly used in gyms, without cracking or losing colour. Avoid abrasive pads and undiluted solvents.
Where are these fabrics used?
They are specified for gym benches and machines, weight benches, treadmill and bike trim, and studio and locker-room seating — anywhere that demands hygienic, hard-wearing, easy-to-clean surfaces.
