Momentum Textiles is pleased to collaborate with Practice Greenhealth’s Healthier Hospitals program.
The Healthier Hospitals organization is actively engaged in sustainable initiatives. Our products are helping them meet their goal of a new paradigm of health - one that is leading communities to a healthier future.
Momentum Textiles is a leading creator of sustainable textiles that perform in all contract environments. We believe innovation has resulted in products that have positively impacted the healthcare industry. During the last decade we’ve created industry changing products – sustainable and high performing. Two of these products are Silica and Naked Nylon®.
Silica was created to be the most sustainable alternative to vinyl. PVC free coated fabrics are better for the environment, safer for human health and longer lasting. Silica and Silica Prints total 30 patterns. The four Silica patterns are solids and textures - Silica, Silica Leather, Silica Tech and Silica Etch. Silica Prints 26 patterns is an innovative addition to the Silica family of products. Silica Prints offers all the environmental, cleaning and performance benefits of Silica with endless design possibilities.
Silica Prints is a new paradigm for printed coated fabrics. The multi-colored designs are printed on the fabric, then the fabric is coated with silicone. This process preserves the rich colorations and assures the fabric retains the phenomenal cleanability and performance of Silica. There is no compromise of the sustainable attributes. Silica Prints performs just like Silica and has beautiful, interesting color and design.
Silica has been recognized by the industry as an innovative award winning product.
