NEW YORK—LebaTex, a renowned commercial textile company dedicated to producing high-quality, sustainable fabrics, announces the launch of the Tidal Collection. This performance upholstery line combines stunning ocean-inspired designs with a powerful environmental mission, incorporating SEAQUAL YARN made from marine plastic waste.
Created in partnership with SEAQUAL INITIATIVE, the six-pattern Tidal Collection is woven using yarns derived from plastic debris recovered from beaches, oceans, rivers, and estuaries. Each fabric supports global efforts to clean the oceans and reinforces LebaTex’s commitment to sustainability without compromising on durability or design.
“We developed the Tidal Collection to embody the spirit of sustainability without sacrificing performance,” said Jake Coburn, President of LebaTex. “The fabrics have resonated with designers because of the durability, refined texture, and visual depth—qualities that align with the demands of modern commercial spaces.”
The collection’s rich textures and tonal palettes reflect the calming yet powerful nature of water. Highlighting performance and beauty, the Mangrove pattern stands out with high durability ratings—exceeding 63,000 double rubs—and meets NFPA 260 and CAL 117-2013 standards. All fabrics in the collection feature an Alta finish and acrylic backing for enhanced stain resistance and longevity.
From hospitality spaces to public areas and beyond, the Tidal Collection allows designers to bring sustainable beauty into any environment. By specifying these fabrics, designers are joining a global initiative to protect and restore marine ecosystems. The Tidal Collection was developed under the creative direction of Stacy Garcia, CEO and Founder of LebaTex, whose leadership continues to shape the brand’s vision for responsible innovation in commercial textile design.
