Milliken & Company to Feature Three Table Linens at NRA Show

Milliken & Company, one of the world’s leading textile and chemical firms, will feature its three leading napery brands at this year’s National Restaurant Association Show in Chicago.

Milliken’s three featured products are: Signature, Milliken Damask, and Encore.

Signature by Milliken® is the most innovative, premier table linen brand on the market, offering unparalleled elegance, performance and softness. Unlike spun fabrics, Signature is a spun/filament blend that resists linting and pilling, and delivers excellent soil release, color retention and absorbency. In addition to its soft, luxurious feel, Signature also comes with Milliken’s proprietary Softouch® finish which gives the fabric its distinctive feel. Dining guests appreciate its lint-free surface and admire its ability to hold even the most creative folds. Signature is available in 25 standard colors and an infinite number of custom colors. The Signature line is color-matched with other Milliken table linen brands.

Milliken DamaskTM delivers the soft, natural feel of cotton along with excellent performance and durability. Milliken Damask patterns have excellent pattern definition to help evoke elegance and enhance the overall dining atmosphere. It’s currently available in the following patterns: Satin Band, Rose, Fleur-de-lis, Symphony, and various specialty patterns. Other benefits include: stronger and better colorfast properties than cotton and blends; more pleasing natural feel; more absorbency than blends; much longer life than cotton or blended damasks; excellent pilling resistance; and excellent resistance to picks and snags.

EncoreTM is a Visa® 2x1 Oxford replacement fabric that is the most cost-effective table linen on the market. Introduced in the summer of 2003, Encore delivers a much better feel than 2x1 Oxford with virtually no picking and snagging. It also retains the durability and performance features that made Visa the best-selling table linen in the world. It all adds up to make Encore the best return-on-investment product in the market.
