MPO treatment

Marine Professional Outdoor (MPO) treatment for technical fabrics and textiles: resistance and durability outdoors

At Alonso Mercader, we present Marine Professional Outdoor (MPO), an advanced technical treatment for fabrics and textiles, specially designed for outdoor and marine environments. This finish guarantees total resistance to solar radiation, humidity, salinity, and wear and tear from intensive use, maintaining the aesthetics, softness, and comfort of the fabrics for much longer.
MPO is applied to the Acualis and Filtech collections, with the MPO logo indicating those items that are prepared to withstand extreme outdoor and marine conditions. Alonso Mercader’s technology ensures that the textiles maintain superior technical properties, making them ideal for upholstery, curtains, awnings, panels, and both indoor and outdoor furniture.

This advanced finish combines strength, durability, and ease of maintenance, ensuring that treated fabrics are not only beautiful and comfortable, but also reliable and functional, even under continuous exposure to sun, rain, and salt.

Marine Professional Outdoor (MPO) uses state-of-the-art technical coatings, treated with Bioproof, which provide anti-mold and antibacterial properties, preventing the proliferation of microorganisms in humid environments. In addition, MPO protects fabrics from degradation by UV radiation, humidity, and salinity, extending the life of each piece and maintaining its color, texture, and resistance.

 

Although the MPO finish offers high protection, it is recommended that upholsterers use sealed seams or closed-cell foams to prevent water from stagnating inside the upholstery and ensure optimal long-term performance.

Marine Professional Outdoor (MPO) treatment provides key advantages for any project requiring technical textiles that are resistant to outdoor and marine environments:

 

  • Extreme weather resistance: withstands sun, rain, wind, humidity, and temperature changes.
  • Protection against salinity: ideal for boating, coastal areas, and outdoor furniture.
  • Extended durability: maintains technical and aesthetic properties even with intensive use and frequent cleaning.
  • Easy maintenance: quick and easy cleaning without compromising the properties of the fabric.
  • Color and texture retention: fabrics do not lose their intensity or visual quality over time.
  • Added hygiene: thanks to Bioproof technology, the proliferation of mold and bacteria is reduced.

  • Versatile applications: suitable for upholstery, awnings, curtains, panels, and both indoor and outdoor furniture.

Thanks to Alonso Mercader, architects, designers, and manufacturers can guarantee high-performance, safe, and long-lasting textiles without sacrificing comfort or design.
