VERY IMPORTANT ! Read Prior to Sending Fabric!

 

In order to better meet the needs of our customers we are changing our supplier of laminating film. Over the last five years our customer base that is required to use film that has been tested to comply with the CPSIA 2008 concerning the use of certain banned phthalates has grown considerably. With this in mind we have made the decision to move to a vendor that tests each lot of laminating film prior to shipment. In the past we have tested with an independent lab randomly and provided those results to customers. In each instance the laminated fabric that we have submitted for testing has PASSED with a wide margin. Still, we feel that a vendor that is committed to testing each lot prior to shipment is in the best interest to our customers. 

We have reached our capacity at this time based on our inventory of film. As a result WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING INCOMING FABRIC FOR LAMINATION UNTIL APPROXIMATELY 3-1-2012. 

Please DO NOT SHIP any fabric unless you are prepared for a significant delay!

We will update the website accordingly.  

KNIT BACKING and ECO SHIELD stain protection orders are still being fulfilled.

We apologize for this temporary inconvenience.

We recently worked with Krista Watterworth, a featured interior designer on three episodes of The Food Network's popular show, Restaurant Impossible. This program is hosted by Chef Robert Irvine and supported by his design/build team. A fledgling restaurant is chosen to be resurrected from near doom. The team has $10,000.00 and three days to perform the miracle. Chef Robert revamps the menu, reorganizes the kitchen and retrains the staff. The design/build team gives the restaurant a makeover for literally pennies on the dollar. In the end Chef Robert sees to it that on opening night that the house is packed. In each episode the owners are given a second chance and a huge helping of hope for their future.

Laminated fabric for seating and tablecloths are chosen in order to ultimately save the owners the cost of laundering and replacement of soiled fabrics. The "like new" appearance is maintained for years. In addition, the ability of the designer to choose a specific fabric vs an "off the rack" oil cloth or an inferior import allows much greater design flexibility.
