11.14.13 | Bloomsburg, PA | Bloomsburg Carpet, a maker of highly styled and superior woven broadloom carpet, is pleased to introduce two new sophisticated patterns through its alliance with Tuva Looms: Metal Edge and Structure.  Both products are made with Zeftron nylon, a fully renewable nylon 6 fiber that offers the best in style, performance and recyclability.

Integrating high fiber luster levels and advanced fiber processing, the new styles reflect the natural patina and visual depth of woven metals.  The result is a stunning wire-like cable weave that creates a clean, modern aesthetic with a distinct nod to the beauty of architecture.  Metal Edge is luxurious, classic, enduring and weighted.  Structure is smooth, edgy and boasts a more causal and flowing design.  The patterns can make their home together or separately in environments ranging from corporate to hospitality to retail. 

Metal Edge and Structure are available in seven complementary colors, including Corrugated, Leaden, Gunmetal, Core, Foundry, Chain Mail and Plow. Woven on Bloomsburg’s double heddle velvet looms, each product is available in 12-foot broadloom.  Metal Edge features a 53.6-ounce face weight, while Structure comes in a 49-ounce face weight. 

“Metal Edge and Structure are the result of great design, great tooling and a highly versatile fiber system from Zeftron nylon,” said Bloomsburg Vice President of Sales James Cody.  “Architects and designers will not only appreciate the appealing look of these styles, but also their ability to perform extremely well in virtually any commercial setting.”

“We are pleased we could put Zeftron’s unmatched styling versatility and rich color palette to perfect utilization for these two new products,” said Zeftron nylon Business Leader Tim Blount.  “Bloomsburg’s ability to create innovative, stylish and performance-driven products makes partnering with them a pleasure.”  

Architects and designers specifying Metal Edge and Structure may also be able to achieve LEED credits.  Zeftron nylon is a closed-loop, MBDC Cradle to Cradle certified brand that comes standard with a minimum of 25 percent recycled content in each yarn system.  Zeftron nylon also offers lifetime performance and stain removal guarantees.
