When worn textile becomes a noble material
Worldwide, 95 % of textiles are technically recyclable — only 25 % actually are. Since 2013, the Danish manufacturer Kvadrat Really has set itself a mission: turn this wasted resource into high-end technical materials. The Textile Tabletop™ was born of this ambition. A tabletop made of 70 % end-of-life textile fibres — essentially used cotton from fashion-industry offcuts and hospital linen — and 30 % of an equally recycled binder. No PVC, no melamine, no pressed wood: a fully circular material, conceived to be dismantled in turn and reintegrated into a new cycle.
Made in Denmark
Each shade of Textile Tabletop™ is a blend of existing textiles, never dyed. Kvadrat Really applies a strict no-dyestuff scheme: colour comes exclusively from the nature of the collected scraps. Four shades make up the range — Cotton White, Cotton Cream, Cotton Grey, Cotton Blue — with, from one batch to another, subtle variations of tone and a random fibre dispersion that make each tabletop a unique piece. This visual signature is not a defect: it is the visible proof of a production without chromatic additive, without extra energy expense, without dye discharge into wastewater.
Four shades, two thicknesses, four edge finishes
