W. Schillig adds Ultrasuede cover option
Will show new selections at High Point Market
Gary Evans -- Furniture Today, September 27, 2010

Ultrasuede is shown as a cover on W. Schillig’s new Moon Shadow sectional.
HIGH POINT — Long a leather resource, W. Schillig will introduce Ultrasuede as a new cover option for the company's contemporary upholstery at next month's High Point Market.
The company, which shows at 220 Elm, space 316, said it is responding to retail partners' requests for a quality fabric cover and bold color selection.

"Our need for a higher-end performance fabric makes Ultrasuede a no-brainer," said David Stewart, vice president of sales and operations. "Ultrasuede is a premium cover that meshes well with our premium upholstered product line.... It's a bonus to work with a brand that already has broad exposure in the retail stores we are selling."

Stewart said leather represents more than 90% of the company's sales, but he expects performance fabric sales to grow with the addition of Ultrasuede.

W. Schillig will offer the entire collection of 96 Ultrasuede ambiance colors, which may be specified on any upholstered item.

Lower Prices for Modern Furniture

Factories are rushing to lower prices at the International Home Furniture Market this week. For example, the new Mirage Home Theater Wall system is only $ 2,495. Because of weak demand in housing that directly affects furniture sales, even the most famous furniture brands are lowering prices. And at the same time they are keeping quality the same. "Brands that keep prices artificially high, or those who prohibit sales online, will be out of business soon," Gill Fisher, President of 1 Contemporary says.
