Textile and acoustical management company Carnegie has launched the Full Spectrum collection of easy-to-maintain fabrics at various price points.
All fabrics in the Full Spectrum collection are 100 percent PVC-free, finish-free, PFAS-free, have extremely low VOCs and are inherently antimicrobial and antibacterial. Each pattern is easy to clean and maintain, with durability of 500,000 double rubs or higher. The collection is bleach-cleanable and can take hospital-grade disinfectants without degrading in quality. Ion and Nebula, containing 100 percent Xorel (25 percent-50 percent Biobased Xorel), are made from rapidly-renewable sugarcane, generating a significantly reduced carbon footprint over fossil-fuel-derived products.
Building upon the recently refreshed Xorel Meteor line, now with 81 shades, the Full Spectrum collection adds 16 bolds and quiet pastels to Carnegie’s Biobased Xorel brand for opportunities to mix and match. Carnegie product developers utilized new knitting methods to create a softer hand for Biobased Xorel upholstery in this collection. In addition, the line uses Precision, a new coated upholstery that includes 29 new shades ranging from neutrals to pops of bright color. Intended to work in harmony with fabrics and wallcoverings from past collections, Full Spectrum allows for unique pairings of pattern and color.
The new patterns include:
Ion
Ion combines the attributes of a subtle herringbone pattern and relaxed shades of versatile color. Expanding Carnegie’s line of functional colors made from Biobased Xorel, the pattern acts as a versatile, all-around high-performance textile perfect for panels, upholstered walls, upholstery and wallcovering. Ion’s understated texture comes in 10 shades.
Nebula
Reminiscent of gestural markmaking, Nebula is the latest addition to the Biobased Xorel brand. Available in six colors for a variety of applications such as panels, upholstered walls, upholstery and wallcovering, Nebula stands up to high-traffic environments while delivering on expressive movement through organic pattern.
Precision
Offered in 29 options, Precision has a silicone top layer for scratch and tear resistance, along with stain resistance and ease of cleaning, all with no added finishes. Prolonging the longevity and quality of furniture with coated value performance, Precision is also part of Carnegie’s Elements collection and is inherently antimicrobial.
