So also is our investment in NEWH. We believe in the ideals of the organization and we are, of course, hopeful that in some small way our support helps to grow discerning and well informed customers for the future. ” Milliken Hospitality manufactures broadloom and modular carpet for all segments of the hospitality market. In 2008, the company set up a design council, comprised of 15 hospitality industry specialists from all over North America, to give feedback on product development, design trends, and new design tools to make custom carpet design easier. Milliken Hospitality has been focused on developing an exclusive selection of design tools, introducing several design collections as well as launching a variety of new product technologies in order to help designers quickly create custom carpet. The first breakthrough was the award-winning étage technology. Using étage, designers can combine different layers of pattern, add and subtract layers, and create vastly different looks out of the same core pattern. The étage program has been further enhanced with the addition of the étage website. The next addition to the Custom Made Easy toolbox was the PURE COLOR system, a box of 1,360 colors that is a science-based system that brings designers unlimited color, while simplifying the process of choosing and communicating their choices to get the custom results they want. Milliken Hospitality’s latest collections, Kenai, Del Lago, and Verde, which were recently launched at the 2009 Hospitality Design Exposition & Conference are a combination of these technologies. The latest news from Milliken Hospitality is that customers will not only be able to select from a variety of new bases using MillitronTM Digital Dye Injection, but will now experience an expanded choice of products for public spaces and guestrooms. Introductions include CYP for public spaces as well as solution dyed tufted products and modular carpet tile for guestrooms. “Milliken Hospitality is proud to support the continued development of the hospitality industry through NEWH programs, says Steve Hillis, business manager, Milliken Hospitality. “We continue ” to find NEWH to be a valuable source of industry knowledge and inspiration and we appreciate the networking and business development opportunities provided by the chapter network.
