Ulster Weavers reveals Eden Project tie-up

New kitchen textiles and homewares range being planned for launch in 2018.

Ulster Weavers has secured a new partnership with Cornwall-based Eden Project for a range of kitchen textiles and homeware.

Showcased during the recent Top Drawer event, the initial range includes tea towels, aprons, oven gloves and mitts.

All products have been manufactured by Ulster Weavers using unbleached cotton, with FSC cards printed using vegetable inks for labels and packaging – tying into the sustainability ethos of Eden Project.

Eden’s commercial manager, Tracey Smith, said: “We are really excited to be collaborating with Ulster Weavers.

“We have worked closely together to develop the new range and believe that it really brings to life Eden’s native and tropical bird designs. We can’t wait to see the full collection launched in spring.”

Kenneth Webb, md of Ulster Weavers, added: “We are delighted to be working with The Eden Project.

“The natural world provides so much design inspiration and has enabled us to create a truly stunning collection that embraces the Eden Project’s values of sustainability and environmentally friendly production. We look forward to a successful launch in 2018.”

The initial Eden Project kitchen textiles collection will be given a full launch at Spring Fair in February 2018, with further homeware lines joining the range later in 2018.
