field failure consultation

Stains, destructive cleaning agents, and improper fabric selection can lead to field failure and our experts are here to help.

real life hates fabrics

Our mission for the past 30 years has been to take the mystery out of textile performance. We make things clear by designing, engineering, and testing our textile technologies for real life.

For too long, designers and purchasers have been misled about the textile specification process. Too much focus is placed on “double rubs” and abrasion ratings, which do not account for real life.

Stains, destructive cleaning agents, improper fabric selection/upholstering are hazards we test and study to develop the best textile technologies in the market. After all, why shouldn’t your vision work as well in year 3 as it does on day 1?
