New Inspiration by Designtex 
 
What inspires us, evokes emotion when we least expect it or transports us to another place? A dandelion floating in the wind, the texture of a fig, the details in a coat, the vibrant colors of India or a Spirograph in motion.  Each of these inspirations played an important role in Designtex's upcoming high performance product launches.
 
In response to the demand for price sensitive textiles, the Kashmir Collection combines the dedicated artistry of block printing with the striking colors of India's Kashmir region.  Most significant to this performance collection is the value price point achieved without compromising aesthetics or construction.
 
The Dettaglio Collection celebrates fine tailoring and timeless elegance and is Designtex's global introduction of Nanosphere, environmentally optimal C6 nanotechnology. Each design explores the many intricate details of a coat design, and applied the art of impeccable construction, intricate stitching, plush tweeds, colorful plaids, and classic striping.
 
While the Dettaglio Collection concentrates on the intricacies of details, the Kinetics Collection focuses on the relativity of movement. Fluidity, softness of line and clean, clear colors define the beauty of these graphic patterns.
 
Deeply rooted in redefining the meaning of privacy and healthcare textiles with a chic urban approach, Designtex has commissioned two outside healthcare experts to design a collection coming out in January.  In addition, Designtex will be first to market with cubicle fabrics utilizing the Agion technology in combination with Agion upholstery and other solution dyed options.
 
Whether the customer is looking for a fabric with a price advantage, a specific market need, or a pattern or color statement, Designtex has made a commitment to address all of these needs through focused, inspired product launches, all with the added benefit of performance finishes that guarantee superior stain resistance, easy cleaning, and a durable long lasting life.
 
 
 


 


 
CF Stinson Introduces the 'Jazz Collection'
 
This new collection of Woven AgionŽ designs by Jane Wicks celebrates Jazz, the vital American music form that is as fresh today as it was a century ago.

Like Jazz, which includes a myriad of styles from Ragtime to Swing, to Bebop to Fusion, this collection incorporates a range of syncopated geometry, Jane-Wicks signature textures, and multi-layered botanicals.
 
All patterns include Agion active antimicrobial built into the bleach cleanable, post-consumer yarns. This breakthrough technology addresses the demanding needs of the healthcare market by combining environmentally-friendly attributes with exceptional durability, cleanability, and the ability to continuously resist bacteria and other microorganisms.
