Costikyan revives custom carpet business

Costikyan, a US company established in 1886, has announced the launch of Costikyan Custom Carpet. The move is presented as a return to the company’s roots in fine rugs and carpet products.

Custom floor textiles occupy a distinct position between textile manufacturing, interior design and contract furnishing. Bespoke specifications place particular demands on material selection, colour consistency, surface design and project execution. 

The company’s launch announcement confirms the new business direction, but detailed technical specifications, production capacities and project examples should be obtained directly from Costikyan before claims about performance or scale are published.

Pallas brings high-performance, lower-impact textiles into healthcare interiors

Pallas Textiles will present its Giverny collection and broader healthcare portfolio at the Healthcare Design Conference + Expo in New Orleans. The collection translates nature-inspired colour and pattern into upholstery, panel and privacy-curtain applications intended for patient, waiting and care environments.

The company highlights performance and material choices alongside design. The Toile pattern is specified for very high abrasion exposure, while Nymphea incorporates SEAQUAL YARN and post-consumer recycled polyester and is designed for bleach cleanability. Pallas also points to material platforms including biodegradable vinyl and bio-attributed or biobased options across its portfolio.

The relevance for contract interiors lies in the combined specification challenge: healthcare fabrics have to support visual and tactile comfort while meeting demanding durability, cleaning and disclosure requirements. Pallas will show the collection from 17 to 20 October.
