Carnegie expands sustainable upholstery line

Carnegie, a supplier of sustainable textiles and acoustical management solutions for the commercial industry, has expanded its line of silicone hybrid coated upholstery with the introduction of Embellish Print and Botanic Print. Part of the new Conscious Collection, these prints use digital printing technology to create the illusion of woven fabric while providing superior cleanability, durability, and sustainability.

“Embellish Print and Botanic Print embody Carnegie’s dedication to sustainable innovation and timeless design,” said Mary Holt, Chief Design Strategist at Carnegie. “We want to empower designers to create spaces that foster social connection and promote wellbeing, and these products epitomize Carnegie’s seven-decade-long commitment to people and the planet.”

In an industry saturated with vinyl and “forever chemicals,” Embellish Print and Botanic Print stand out as 100% PVC-free, finish-free, and PFAS-free. This aligns with Carnegie’s commitment to setting new standards for environmentally conscious design. The fabrics are Clean Performance Urethanes (CPUs), made using a newer process that achieves a soft hand without DMF solvents or the traditional “wet method” that often results in water contamination and quality issues.

Bleach-cleanable, inherently stain-resistant, and antimicrobial, Embellish Print and Botanic Print can be cleaned with hospital-grade disinfectants and are designed to endure the demands of high-traffic environments without compromising on aesthetics. Versatile and adaptable, these upholsteries are suitable for a wide range of applications, including healthcare, hospitality, workplace, and education environments.
