Abbotsford: A New Approach to Contract Textiles Through Colour, Performance, & Responsibility

Abbotsford Textiles are pleased to introduce their new collection Infinite Colour, opening new creative possibilities for contract interiors. The collection offers a curated library of 200 shades, each digitally printed to order, with bespoke colour matching available on any scale, with no minimum order quantities. This flexibility allows designers to respond to corporate branding, heritage references, or architectural design, while maintaining consistency through a responsive production process.

The collection is positioned as a reliable resource for contract colour — offering clarity, technical performance, and design freedom. Developed for the practical demands of commercial environments, it supports how designers and specifiers already work, adding versatility without disrupting established workflows.

In commercial interiors, colour plays a defining role — guiding behaviour, strengthening brand identity, and contributing to wellbeing — making Infinite Colour a dependable resource for creative control.

Sustainability by Design

Environmental responsibility is no longer optional. It is built into tenders, corporate reporting, and public accountability. For contract textiles, this has accelerated the demand for manufacturing models that reduce waste, resource use, and inefficiency.

Infinite Colour is designed by Abbotsford Textiles with that reality at its core.

The collection is produced from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic, converting waste into a high-performance textile. Sustainability is not an added layer — it is integral to how the collection is made. By reducing reliance on virgin polyester and diverting plastic from landfill, environmental impact is lowered at source.

Digital print technology replaces traditional dyeing, using significantly less water and removing the need for excess stock. Every order is produced only when required, in the exact quantity specified, eliminating overproduction, and supporting a more responsible, circular supply model.

For specifiers, this delivers sustainability without trade-off — balancing environmental performance, commercial viability, and design intent within a single, confident specification.

Designed for Commercial Spaces

While sustainability and colour flexibility are central, Infinite Colour has been developed with the demands of commercial interiors in mind. The collection has been designed to perform in environments where safety, durability and compliance are essential.

With a weight of 435g/lm and a width of 140cm, the fabric is suited to a wide range of applications, including upholstery, curtains, privacy screens, wall panels and loose soft furnishings.

Its inherent technical performance meets Crib 5 without treatment, exceeds 100,000 Martindale cycles, and demonstrates strong colour fastness to light as well as to wet and dry rubbing. This allows specifiers to work with confidence, knowing the fabric satisfies both regulatory standards and real-world operational demands.

Together, these attributes ensure Infinite Colour performs reliably in demanding commercial environments.

A New Standard for Contract Supply

Contract textile supply continues to place greater emphasis on demand, responsiveness, and control. Infinite Colour supports this shift with a production model shaped by Abbotsford Textiles’ commitment to flexibility, reliability, and consistency. Each order, from a single metre for sampling, to multi-site specifications, is printed to order and produced within responsive, well-managed timeframes. This allows design and procurement teams to plan with confidence.

This approach brings commercial efficiency together with responsible production, reducing waste while maintaining reliable delivery. With 200 stock colours, bespoke colour options, no minimum order quantities and a recycled-plastic base cloth, Infinite Colour offers a considered and practical resource for contract environments. For specifiers, designers and procurement teams, it delivers creative control, dependable performance and a more accountable route to modern textile manufacturing.
