Febreze FABRIC™ Spray vs. State Fabric & Textile Refresher®
Fabric Refresher Comparison: Febreze FABRIC™ vs. State Fabric and Textile Refresher®
When it comes to odor control and fragrancing, Febreze is arguably the most well-known brand. So, when selecting a fabric refresher, it only makes sense to consider Febreze FABRIC™. But how does Febreze FABRIC™ compare to a commercial fabric refresher like State Fabric and Textile Refresher®?
At State Chemical, we manufacture and distribute various chemical and biological solutions, including State Fabric and Textile Refresher. We know that it can be difficult to get to the root of a malodor, especially when it’s embedded in a textile, so it’s our goal to give honest information to help you resolve your problem.
In this article, we will compare Febreze FABRIC™ to State Fabric and Textile Refresher and explain when each should be used. After reading, you’ll have an idea of how each of these products could work in your facility, and you’ll be prepared to choose the best fabric refresher for you.
What is Febreze FABRIC™?
Febreze FABRIC™ is a ready-to-use fabric refresher spray for household furniture and fabrics that may be holding onto odors. This can include hard-to-wash fabrics like sofas, drapes, carpets, and other upholstery.
For example, if you have an old couch, it may start to hold onto body odors after a while. You could spray Febreze FABRIC™ onto the couch weekly, and it would fight these malodors to make the area smell fresher and more comfortable.
What is State Fabric and Textile Refresher?
State Fabric and Textile Refresher is also a ready-to-use fabric refresher spray. It can be used on odorous furniture and fabrics in commercial and institutional settings. As with Febreze FABRIC™, this can include sofas, drapes, carpets, and other upholstery.
For example, if you run a hotel that tends to have smoke odors in the rooms, you could spray State Fabric and Textile Refresher on the drapes and furniture during turnovers. The product would then work to eliminate odors at the source and add a more pleasant fragrance to the area. This way, the room will smell fresh and clean when guests check in, and it will remain this way throughout their stay.
Which Fabric Refresher Spray Should I Use in a Commercial Facility?
If you’re looking for a fabric refresher for a commercial facility, the short answer is that State Fabric and Textile Refresher may be the better choice for you.
This is because the main distinction between these two options is their intended usage. Febreze FABRIC™ is a household product designed solely for household use. It’s not made to be used in a commercial setting; it’s made to be purchased by the everyday consumer.
Meanwhile, State Fabric and Textile Refresher is industrial-strength and is intended only for commercial and institutional use. Commercial products are usually concentrated at higher percentages than household products, meaning they perform at a different level for facilities that see more traffic than a home would.
That said, in a commercial facility, you could technically use either option.Running a business doesn’t mean you need industrial-strength products, especially if you have milder odor problems.
But industrial products are able to perform differently because they are sold business-to-business rather than over the counter. If you value using an industrial-strength fabric refresher for your textile odor problems, State Fabric and Textile Refresher has that capability.
Meanwhile, if you’re looking for a fabric refresher for household use, Febreze FABRIC™ is an effective and fitting option. State Fabric and Textile Refresher cannot be sold for household use.
Which Commercial Fabric Refresher Spray Should I Use with Fragrance Sensitivities?
With these two fabric refreshers, you’re looking at a range of fragrance options—an important distinction to note if users of your facility commonly have fragrance sensitivities (e.g., healthcare facilities may want to veer away from fragranced products).
Both State Fabric and Textile Refresher and Febreze FABRIC™ offer unscented options. On their website, Febreze states, “With 0% perfumes, Fabric Refresher Free is gentle enough to use on fabrics for those with sensitivities to scent and odors.” Similarly, State Fabric and Textile Refresher® has an unscented option that is not expected to trigger fragrance sensitivities.
When many of your facility users have fragrance allergies and sensitivities, these are effective products to deodorize your space without causing flare-ups. Additionally, if you run a facility with animals, these are ways to protect pets with common sensitivities (cats, for example, are highly sensitive to fragrances and may experience allergic reactions).
However, if you prefer a fabric refresher with a fragrance, your options are more varied.
State Fabric and Textile Refresher only offers one scented option: Clean. As the name suggests, this scent leaves a lasting impression of freshness.
For Febreze FABRIC™, there are at least eleven fragrance options, with additional fragrance options tending to release on a fairly consistent basis. If you prefer a greater variety of fragrances or if you get bored of the same scents, Febreze FABRIC™ has more varied options available.
Best Application Zones for Febreze FABRIC™ and State Fabric and Textile Refresher
If you have fabric, textiles, or other upholstery in your facility, both fabric refreshers can effectively treat these areas. Essentially, if you have fabric odors, these products are right for you.
In commercial settings, this can mean odors from drapes, bedding, towels, lobby furniture, carpeting, rugs, and other fabrics or upholstery. These are often problems in hotels, motels, assisted living facilities, apartments, condos, office buildings, schools, fitness centers, and more.
If these odors are typically mild in your facility, a household fabric refresher like Febreze FABRIC™ may be effective enough. But if you have moderate-to-serious odor concerns, it’s best to use a commercial fabric refresher like State Fabric and Textile Refresher instead.
