  • We spend nearly a third of our lives sleeping - or trying to. But 1 in 3 adults aren’t getting enough rest. In the design world, we talk a lot about beauty, flow, and function. But what about sleep? The environments we create can directly support or disrupt healthy rest. That’s where fabric choice matters more than we think. This is why we created our Phantom Collection. Phantom is made up of five true blackout drapery patterns that help create spaces designed for real recovery. With total light control, energy efficiency, and a soft texture, they support deeper rest and a more regulated circadian rhythm , the foundation of mental clarity, mood, and long-term health. Whether it’s for a residential bedroom, boutique hotel, or wellness retreat, these products help transform everyday spaces into sleep sanctuaries. Because sleep isn’t a luxury. It’s essential. #DesignForWellness #SleepWellLiveWell #BlackoutDrapery #InteriorDesignCanada #HealthySpaces #WellnessDesign

  • Sunlight shouldn’t compromise comfort or performance. That’s why we developed Encool, an advanced fabric technology engineered to reduce heat retention by up to 10% in direct sunlight. Whether it’s used on outdoor cushions, marine seating, or awnings, Encool enhances user comfort by actively lowering surface temperatures, even on the hottest days. This means cooler touchpoints, longer-lasting materials, and fewer trade-offs between durability and comfort. Integrated into our Guardian Collection of products, Encool helps create spaces that are not only built to last but designed to be enjoyed. Because performance should feel as good as it functions. ☀️ 10% Cooler Surface in Direct Sun 🧵 Built into Durable, UV-Resistant Fabrics 🪑 Ideal for Outdoor, Marine & Contract Applications #FabricTechnology #Encool #OutdoorDesign #PerformanceFabrics

  • Our Commitment to Giving Back Each year, Ennis Fabrics proudly donates 1% of all SolarShade sales to 1% for the Planet, a global organization that connects businesses with vetted environmental partners. What makes this initiative especially meaningful is that we invite our employees to choose the environmental organizations we support, ensuring our giving reflects the values of our team. For this year’s donation, our team selected three impactful nonprofits making real change in their fields: • Saving the Blue: Dedicated to the recovery and restoration of threatened marine species, this organization leads with hands-on research, education, and community engagement. Their mission also includes promoting sustainable, ocean-friendly practices to protect marine ecosystems for future generations. • Endangered Species International: Focused on preserving biodiversity, this group works to protect endangered species and rehabilitate critical forest habitats around the world. Their programs address both ecological conservation and the reduction of human threats to vulnerable wildlife. • Textile Exchange: A global nonprofit driving transformation in the textile industry, Textile Exchange empowers brands, manufacturers, and farmers to improve sustainability from the very beginning of the supply chain. They offer standards, tools, and guidance to help the industry adopt more ethical and environmentally responsible practices. Through 1% for the Planet and the passion of our employees, we’re proud to support these organizations that align with our sustainability goals and our commitment to leaving a lighter footprint
