Casa Bini Newsletter, April 2009 Issue
Are You Doing the Right Thing ???
Encourage your clients to “do the right thing” by choosing fabrics constructed of renewable source fiber and woven right here in the USA. You can achieve their need for a performance fabric in a fashion forward pallet, and simultaneously salve their conscience with a socially responsible choice.
In keeping with the times, Casa Bini is promoting the Bella Verde Collection (Green). Indulge your hand and visual aesthetic with these luxuriously textured fabrics: Karma, Insight, Pathways, Elements and Intertwine.
The Peacock Collection is promoting the newly released “Eco Wise Collection”. These two patterns Eco Wave and Eco Link woven right here in the USA, utilizing recycled polyester (plastic soda & water bottles).
Why Use Bamboo ???
Some great qualities of the bamboo yarn are:
- Bamboo possesses a property called “Bamboo Kun” which means that it is naturally anti-microbial. Even though processing into fabric and after fifty washes, bamboo fabrics retain their anti-bacterial nature, according to research by Japan Textile Inspection Association. This makes it suitable for those sensitive to allergens.
- Bamboo takes in five times the volume of greenhouse gasses as an equivalent stand of timber trees and releases 35% more oxygen. It needs no replanting, pesticides or fertilizers, and its roots retain water in the watershed, sustaining riverbanks and reducing water pollution.
- It has many of the qualities sought in “performance” and “easy care” fabrics without the drawbacks of synthetic material and it has many of the fashionable qualities of silk, while being sturdy and vegan.
Our Bella Verde (Beautifully Green) collection of fabrics comfortably transcend from residential to higher-end commercial applications. These fabrics are milled in the USA saving shipping fuel and adding to the greenness of the collection. Belle Verde is proud to introduce these five patterns: Karma, Insight, Pathways, Intertwine and Elements.

The second collection launched under the “Casa Bini Textiles” banner is “Luminoso”, meaning luminous in Italian. Upon viewing our new collection, we trust that you will agree with our name, “Luminoso”. The collection is comprised of drapery and light upholstery fabrics in stunning, but very usable colorways. As with Bella Verde, our premier collection, “Luminoso” is made up of textures and serves to bridge the gap between our best selling jacquards. Further, this grouping provides the line with drapery, light upholstery and bedding fabrics.

We are very excited to share with you the first collection from Casa Bini, Bella Verde.
The following five patterns of the Bella Verde Collection are made using Bamboo fiber, which is a renewable “green” source. The Bella Verde Collection is milled in the USA, minimizing fuel use, and further contributing to a reduction of “carbon footprint”.
Karma is a pattern, possessing the clean, renewable qualities of bamboo, yet it is as soft and supple as cotton chenille. It has a contrasting warp, which adds unique dimension to the face. It is available in five very neutral, usable colorways.
Insight is another bamboo fabric with a subtle chain stitch effect providing for a tailored texture. It is an ideal choice as a medium weight upholstery fabric. Insight coordinates beautifully with existing patterns or with our new textures. It comes in 5 rich colors.
Pathways is an impressive stripe chenille on a twill background cloth creating a bold, dramatic look. This fabric will work well alone or as a coordinate. Its soft hand is perfect for any comfortable piece of furniture or as a great headboard! It comes in 6 sumptuous colors.
Intertwine is woven with soft chenille yarn blended with a novelty yarn providing interesting visual depth. This is a perfect fabric choice for any décor style from traditional to contemporary. The colors add to the versatility. It comes in 5 distinct colorways.
Elements, as its name suggests, is basically a soft, comfortable fabric with luxurious hand. A chenille yarn is combined with a boucle yarn, resulting in a luxurious texture with exceptional depth. It comes in 5 stunning colorways, each color providing a different sensation.
