Pallas Textiles utilises yarn made from recycled plastic for range of fabrics


Promotion: US-based fabrics brand Pallas Textiles has released a series of textiles for interior design applications that utilise recycled plastic recovered from the ocean and landfills.


Pallas Textiles collaborated with American firms Limn & Loom and US-based mill Valdese Weavers for the In Good Company collection, which features six textural fabrics meant for interior applications.

The collections utilise Seaqual Yarn fabric, a durable material created using recycled materials derived from both land and sea.

Seaqual’s fabric is created using 10 per cent upcycled plastics taken from oceans, lakes and other waterways in and around Europe, and the remainder is from post-consumer waste from landfills. Seaqual facilitates the gathering, cleaning and transformation of recycled plastic into fibres that are then used in products by brands like Pallas Textiles.

Pallas Textiles launched the line both to commit to sustainable production and to generate funding for Seaqual’s ongoing initiatives. A portion of the proceeds generated by the sales of the In Good Company collection will be donated back to Seaqual.

“To create real change, we partner with organizations that share our commitment to sustainability and innovation,” said Pallas Textiles vice president Dean Lindsley.

“In Good Company reflects this collaborative spirit and our dedication to driving progress in sustainable design.”

The products themselves are rich in colour with a variety of weaves and patterns across the six different variations available in the collection.

Pallas Textile and its partners referenced natural tones for the different colourways, with blue, tan and corals.

The available patterns in the collection include Kai, a “structured design” with heathered warp and weft yarns as well as Hali, a plush and “chunky” design with bouclé yarn that can be used in furniture.

Maren is a “luxurious anchor fabric” with chenille and slub yarns that work together to create a visually interesting “movement” between the juxtaposing shades.

Also in slub and chenille yarns, Isla “evokes the natural beauty of light across surfaces, with a serene palette of scenic colorways”.

For a more uniform look, Ahti features velvety yarns fine spun and comes in jewel tones for brighter pops of colour in interior schemes.

Finally, Llyr provides a more “aged” look with a subtle weave designed to provide “nuance”.

Taken together, the collection showcases the unity of style and eco-conscious design.

“We are so excited for what this collection brings to interior designers as well as its potential to make a positive impact on the environment,” said Lindsley.

“Sustainability is a core element of our creative process, and we’re proud to support such a transformative cause.”
