Wool

TP Vision’s collaboration with Kvadrat is focused on the company’s specialist wool and polyester products. Kvadrat has its own production site in the UK for wool weaving with the woollen textile supplied to TP Vision earning an EU Ecolabel certification. Wool is a natural, regenerative resource with a long lifespan, it is also naturally stain-resistant and flame-retardant, so chemical treatment is not necessary. Waste fibers from the production process are also, wherever possible, gathered and recycled.

Polyester

Polyester textiles are durable and easy to maintain. Furthermore, the yarns are hypoallergenic as they are synthetic and not animal-based. Polyester with 100% composition is thereby easy to recycle. Hypoallergenic yarns provide a cleaner indoor environment for people who suffer from allergies and they have a shorter production processes than natural fibres.

Packaging

EPS or other polymeric foam

We do not use EPS or other polymeric foam materials for screen size 43” and smaller. We replaced EPS by airbags made of polyethylene and paper pulp, which are more environmentally friendly to recycle.

Paper and cardboard

For paper and cardboard, we use > 90% recycled content or 100% from certified renewable sources.
