Reshaping the future of FR fabrics: this is RE-Invent

Written by Jessica Maybury | Jan 15, 2021 2:53:21 PM

Our inherently fire-retardant fabrics are the result of a long series of responsible choices. We’ve written before about our dedication to continual improvement through responsible design. In fact, this informs our values as a company from the bottom up.

Today we are delighted to announce our newest FR fabrics range: RE-Invent.

The RE-Invent range of recycled polyester FR fabrics

FR-One's focus on consumers, partners, and our environment’s requirements has led us to re-use, recycle, re-purpose, and ultimately RE-Invent our own collections.

The RE-Invent range features 6 collections, including multi-purpose, upholstery, drapery and sheers. It showcases 3 new fabric constructions, manufactured from recycled polyester, fully certified and compliant with the Global Recycled Standard (GRS).

This concise range embraces timeless and proven best-sellers, including Moon and Delis. Both of these have been thoughtfully reinvented for today’s consumer to encourage appreciation of the value of quality and proven products.

RE-DELIS

1 Design, 18 SKUs

FR-One’s best-selling ‘Delis’ is reinvented in a renewed wide width and recycled format suitable for drapery, bedding and upholstery application.

RE-Delis is 300cm wide and features a matte, dry and natural look and touch emulating a beautiful raw linen. Composed of 52% recycled GRS certified polyester, RE-Delis is an exciting quality for today’s increasingly astute and conscientious market.

REGAL VELVETS

3 Designs, 15 SKUs


A range of signature jacquard velvets in 3 striking designs available in a beautifully succinct and rich colour range.

  • 1 - Regalia is an all-over abstract design that gives great visual texture and movement.
  • 2 - Remain is a classic key design with a hidden optical zigzag twist.
  • 3 - Requiem is a small-scale irregular spot effect with an intentionally fuzzy look and feel.

RESURGENCE

2 Designs, 56 SKUs

Resurgence presents two unconventional vinyl qualities: Register and Refined. Both mirror the look and texture of natural woven linens in the form of a boundlessly durable engineered vinyl.

Register and Refined are compiled together with a range of FR-One’s carefully curated sheers, drapery, and upholstery fabrics - all in a soft, enduring, and neutral colour palette.

RE-VIVE

1 Design, 24 SKUs

FR-One’s first 100% recycled fabric. Wide width dim out, RE-Vive, is 100% recycled polyester certified by the Global Recycling Standard.

RE-Vive features a sumptuous touch and drape with a silky smooth finish, available in a broad and versatile colour palette.

RE-STORE

3 Designs, 27 SKUs

A trio of wide width textured dim outs in GRS certified recycled polyester, the RE-Store collection is perfectly suited to today’s interior projects.

  • 1 - RE-Juvenate features a small basket weave texture subtly combining matt and shiny yarns to create a dim out with excellent tactility and dimension.
  • 2 - RE-Boot is composed of fine multi-coloured and lurex yarns delivering a glamorous dim out that catches the light.
  • 3 - RE-New has an organic, dry and tactile look and feel, this dim out brings a sophisticated quality to any interior.

MOON

1 Design, 39 SKUs

FR-One’s best-selling and timeless velvet has been refreshed with a deeper colour palette, now available in a total of 39 rich and on-trend colours. Moon’s excellent durability and luxurious touch has made this fabric the go-to velvet for designers and specifiers alike.

Let’s re-think, re-create and re-invent together.
