Seattle – In its inaugural year of producing luxury organic textile products, O Ecotextiles has been named a 2008 Top-10 Green Building Products supplier by the editors of Environmental Building News and GreenSpec.
The Boston-based publisher’s award “recognizes the most innovative and exciting green building products added to the GreenSpec Directory during the past year or covered in Environmental Building News,” the company said.
“We are thrilled and gratified that the oracle of green product evaluation has spoken with us at length and determined that we are both authentic in our eco-friendly claims and worthy of support,” said ceo Patty Grossman. “The issues regarding fabric are so dramatic that we continue to believe that green fabric will be a real centerpiece of study and concern by green consumers.”
The Directory features listings of more than 2,000 products, selected based on criteria developed over the past 15 years. Manufacturers do not pay to be listed.
O Ecotextiles adheres to various global standards, including GOTS and Oeko Tex Standard 100. The fabrics have also been tested by a lab to measure chemical emissions; results demonstrate that the fabrics can be used to accrue LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) points for Indoor Air Quality.
The O Ecotextiles Collection uses such fibers as bamboo, hemp, abaca, ramie, linen and silk and offers 17 fabric choices and multiple colorways, plus custom.
