Skopos has been providing fabrics and finished curtains for hospital environments for over 4 decades and has a wealth of designs to choose from, perfect for environments where cleanliness is an issue.  Created and beautifully crafted by our in-house design team, all of our printed designs can be produced on a wide choice of basecloths, including antimicrobial upholstery qualities. Under our Skopos Protect Plus brand we can supply all of our printed drapery fabrics with an antimicrobial finish.

Designs with an uplifting nature, can promote a feeling of well-being and calm.  Alongside our prints we also have a choice of antimicrobial woven waterproof upholstery qualities and antimicrobial faux leathers/vinyls.  Skopos Protect Plus fabrics are antimicrobial and anti-fungal, effective against a broad spectrum of bacteria commonly found in hospital environments.

Hygienic Fabrics for Care Homes

Alongside our prints we also have a choice of woven waterproof upholstery qualities and the ability to produce bespoke designs.  All of our healthcare collections are perfect for Care Home environments, with many equally suited to hotels.  It all depends on the basecloth.  Please visit our basecloth page.
