Specifies requirements for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coatings for upholstered furniture.

This part of ISO 7617 specifies requirements for coated fabrics for upholstered furniture, manufactured by applying to one side of a woven cloth a substantially continuous coating of a suitably plasticized polymer of vinyl chloride, or a copolymer the major constituent of which is vinyl chloride. Such coatings are known as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coatings. The present specification covers two grades (A and B) of PVC-coated woven fabric.
