Valley Forge Fabrics is one of three finalists in the inaugural Sage Award Competition announced by The American Home Furnishings Alliance and Cargill BiOH Polyols.  

The award program was launched to recognize environmental accomplishments within the home furnishings and bedding industries. "A sage is someone who is widely respected for wisdom, experience and judgment," explains AHFA CEO Andy Counts. "This award was created by AHFA and Cargill BiOH polyols to seek out, discover, and recognize true industry innovators from whom all of us can learn."  The other two finalists are Cisco Brothers and Hickory Chair.
 
Valley Forge Fabrics, a family owned and operated business since 1977, has made the
preservation of the planet and its resources a top priority since 2002.  In 2007, after several years of extensive research, Valley Forge launched FRESH – Fabrics Redefining Environmental Standards for Hospitality.  FRESH fabrics are made from synthetic yarns derived from pre-consumer and post-consumer recycled products (mostly post-consumer PET plastic beverage bottles) which are made at a low impact manufacturing platform. 

Earlier this year, the company introduced FRESH bedding. In early November, Valley Forge also debuted LIVING FRESH which is the very first natural bedding collection for the 30 year old company. LIVING FRESH is an exotic blend of fibers from eucalyptus and cotton. 
 
Sage Award entries represented retail companies, manufacturers and suppliers to the home
furnishings and bedding industries. For more information on the Sage Awards or the American Home Furnishings Alliance, visit their website at www.ahfa.us.
