Brayton Designs is dedicated to working with environmentally
conscious suppliers who use energy efficient methods and sustainable
resources. In addition we source our products at every opportunity
from U.S. suppliers. We strive to utilize renewable, reclaimable
and recyclable options whenever possible. Included in our
environmentally friendly fabric offering are Wool
de Luxe, Essence,
Simplicity, Zero Collection, Crypton and PBD Signature Suede.
Our
leather, Buttersoft,
is a sustainable, naturally green product. It is processed
using a water based vegetable tanning method that is completely
Chrome Free, and manufactured under ISO14001 guidelines. Buttersoft
can safely go into a landfill at the end of its usefulness
and will naturally biodegrade as leather has for centuries.
Absolutely no harmful chemicals are allowed in this product.
Crypton®
has also made huge strides in the last year and in addition
to the first EPA approved disinfectant, is now producing Green
Crypton Fabrics which we are incorporating into our line of
exclusive textiles.
Nano-Tex®
is one of our extraordinary suppliers who provide environmentally
friendly finishes and processes for our fabrics. Included
in our Nano-Tex collection are Lamour
and Somerfield.
From an Environmental Perspective, Bella-Dura™
is the leading environmentally responsible fabric option in
the marketplace. In fact, you could call it the environmental
champion of all synthetic fibers. It is the only fiber on
the market, synthetic or natural, that begins as a by-product
of post-industrial waste and ends its life as a fully recyclable
product. Bella-Dura requires substantially less energy to
manufacture, uses only a small amount of water during its
manufacturing process and produces no harmful industrial waste.
Environmental
concerns are foremost in our product development plans going
forward.
