Feb 07, 2025

Duvaltex is entering 2025 with a clear focus: sustainability, performance, and innovation. As global demands evolve, manufacturers and designers are shifting their priorities to embrace environmentally responsible practices while delivering products that meet modern aesthetic and functional needs.

At the earth of Duvaltex, we’re leading the way with innovative solutions that define the future of textiles.

Aesthetics and performance

In 2025, the design world is redefining its priorities, emphasizing a balance between aesthetics and functionality. Fabrics are now expected to not only elevate spaces visually but also provide outstanding durability and reliability. At the same time, there’s a growing shift toward responsible design processes, with designers increasingly favoring materials made from recycled resources that minimize environmental impact. At Duvaltex, we’re proud to align with these trends, offering innovative textiles that help you create spaces that are both stunning and sustainable.

Sustainability   

Duvaltex is at the forefront of sustainable innovation with its CLEAN IMPACT TEXTILES® initiative, which sets a new benchmark in responsible design. This groundbreaking collection includes fabrics like Gather and Marlstone, crafted from 100% post-consumer recycled polyester. Gather is a biodegradable* fabric made from ocean waste plastics, providing a revolutionary option for eco-conscious projects. Marlstone, on the other hand, transforms discarded ocean plastics into high-performance textiles, demonstrating how discarded materials can be reimagined into solutions for a better future.

CLEAN IMPACT TEXTILES®

Ocean Waste

For every pound of OCEAN WASTE
CLEAN IMPACT TEXTILES® fabric produced, up to half a pound of marine waste is removed from the ocean.

Biodegradable*

Every day, 55 million pounds of synthetic plastic textiles end up in landfills in the U.S. alone. Lead the change with biodegradable* CLEAN IMPACT TEXTILES®.

 

Timeless design

As the industry evolves in 2025, the legacy of Guilford of Maine continues to stand as a benchmark of quality and innovation. Known for its iconic designs and exceptional performance, Guilford of Maine has set the standard for decades with products like the legendary FR701, crafted from 100% post-consumer recycled polyester. This timeless fabric, celebrated for its acoustic excellence and enduring style, exemplifies the perfect blend of tradition and modern innovation. By preserving this rich heritage, Duvaltex ensures that Guilford of Maine remains a symbol of reliability and relevance in a world where performance and sustainability are paramount.
