Fable & Plumb opens new showroom

Fable & Plumb, the newly-launched sofas division of textiles firm Plumbs, has been given its own dedicated showroom.

Plumbs has been supplying sofa cover, reupholstery and curtains for 60 years and in November last year began manufacturing bespoke chairs and sofas. 

The fabrics on the furniture are fully customisable and can be removed and replaced, giving customers the chance to refresh the look without replacing the entire item.

Sarah Page, managing director of Plumbs, said: "The aim of Fable & Plumb is to provide sofas that are built to last a lifetime in every possible sense.

“The ability to replace fabrics on the same frame is not only a great lifestyle choice but also reflects the global movement away from high-waste consumerism and an emphasis on environmentally-conscious purchasing decisions in products that have a long lifetime of use.

“This investment shows our commitment to the move into sofa manufacturing, offering a more sustainable product with washable fabric options to ensure the sofa has a long lifetime of use. The showroom will capture some of those design options and allow customers to get even more of a feel for the range.”

Fable & Plumb’s showroom is now open alongside the Plumbs showroom at the company’s head office at Brookhouse Mill, Preston.
