m南卡罗来纳州斯巴达堡的Illiken＆Company长期以来因其环境和道德标准而受到认可。为了符合这些标准，该公司已引入了Milliken™Performance室内装饰品系列的呼吸，据报道是纺织行业的第一个也是唯一包括自然和人造纤维织物的无氟性能系列。
“Breathe by Milliken is a collection of eco-elegant performance upholstery fabrics that are durable, repel stains, and clean easily without compromising the fabric’s look or soft feel,” said David Smith, Milliken’s vice president, Engineered Performance Products, noting that the collection is responsibly manufactured and reflects the company’s core values concerning environmental sustainability, innovations that do good and improve people’s lives, and health and safety. “It is designed with a person,
一个家庭，以及特定的最终用途。当今的消费者比以往任何时候都更加了解谁，并且更关心谁生产产品，它的制作方式以及如何制作产品。从纤维到完成的产品的每个方面都旨在解决此问题。”他补充说。
该系列包括棉花织物和再生聚酯织物。污渍驱虫剂是基于植物的，源自可持续收获的棕榈。织物没有发出挥发性的有机化合物，也没有添加的甲醛，并且已获得GreenGuard®金认证，以便在室内环境中使用。
所有织物均在南卡罗来纳州和佐治亚州的Milliken设施生产。
“Breathe by Milliken fabrics are really engineered textiles, and we’ve looked at them from a fiber-forward basis, looking at every aspect from fibers, to yarns, to the manufacturing process and final touches,” said Emily Michaels, research manager, Engineered Performance Fabrics. “All of these are specifically chosen to create sustainable, effective and long-lasting performance.”
织物沉浸在公司的专有解决方案中，以提供驱除措施，织物构造也会影响表面驱逐的程度。例如，水基液体会在紧密编织的斜纹织物的表面上向上滚动，而它可能会穿透较宽的纯正织物。无论哪种情况，都可以按照Milliken的清洁说明轻松去除液体和任何污渍。该公司还提供清理油基污渍的说明，这可能更难去除。织物也可以机器洗涤。

According to LeAnne Flack, business development manager, Engineered Performance Fabrics, two cotton constructions — Performance Twill and Performance Slub Cotton — are available in several colors as selections for the upholstered furniture collections of home furnishings retailer Pottery Barn, which also offers the fabrics for sale by the yard. For Spring 2017, Pottery Barn is featuring Performance Twill on PB Air sofas on display in its stores.
