Mega Motion, a resource for power lift chairs and other mobility products, is unveiling Verde-Tec, an innovative new fabric on multiple models at the October High Point Market.
Developed in cooperation with the Mitchell Group, Verde-Tec is a completely new type of coated fabric. Produced from 100 percent silicone, an organic polymer with a 100 percent polyester double knit backing, the fabric is as environmentally friendly as it gets.
No VOC are released, or air pollution during the manufacturing process which uses less electricity than traditional wet PVC casting processes. It is stain resistant and resists mildew, hydrolysis, UV rays, denim dyes and it has cold crack performance. With its leather-like soft hand, Verde-Tec out performs most faux leather products.
“The ease of care and cleaning plus having the ‘Green’ properties of its manufacturing were the first elements that led us to consider the potential of this fabric,” said Dwight Hardison, managing director. “With the feel of a glove soft leather, sustainability and performance factors, it is a natural for our power recliner with lift program.”
Verde-Tec will be shown and available on multiple premium models in its debut Market. Mega Motion will also display other power recliners with lift, the Ultimate Power Recliner line and Rascal Mobility scooters.
