Aiming to bring rhythm and balance to otherwise sterile hospital settings, Momentum Texiles is debuting two new privacy curtains featuring recycled polyester fabric with  flame-retardant properties.

Juxtaposing geometric and organic elements, the Betula and Perennial patterns are made using Unifi's Repreve, the first 100 percent recycled polyester yarn with inherent flame-retardant properties. They are constructed with a combination of 80 percent post-industrial and 20 percent post-consumer yarns.

Betula, which integrates color blocks and organic textures in an asymmetrical mosaic based on natural habitats, and Perennial, which incorporates organic botanicals in varying shades, are part of the larger Evolve Collection, Momentum's spring healthcare offering.
