Going Forth and Coming Home: Hospitality and Home Fabrics Tackle Sustainability

The home fabrics and hospitality industries and their use of textiles are significantly different compared to the fashion industry, where consumers’ endless pursuit of new on-trend products has over the last few years become the object of what seems to be an endless stream of negative headlines and poor press. Home fabrics suppliers have historically created decorative products that are built for purpose, drape, and comfort—and for hospitality interiors, those products are also built to withstand high temperature laundering and extensive wear and tear. While hospitality is also increasingly a trend driven sector, the textiles are not designed to be changed by the season.
