Ulster Weavers launches new Home Comforts collection at Spring Fair
Homeware range manufactured locally as part of plans to grow business sustainably.
Leading textile manufacturer Ulster Weavers has revealed its Home Comforts collection, a new range
of contemporary home furnishings aimed at introducing linen heritage to a new generation.
As part of its plans to grow the business sustainably, the range is designed and manufactured in
Ireland using sustainably sourced materials.
The launch of the Home Comforts range comes as the company, which has customers in over 50
countries, relaunches and repositions its business as a contemporary homeware brand targeting the
millennial audience.
Over the last year, the business has invested significantly in research to drive product innovation,
supporting its customer base to capitalise on market trends and opportunities. To this end, its new
Home Comforts range, which includes linen bean bags, pouffes, cushions and merino wool throws,
blends traditional craftmanship with the latest trends, appealing to homemakers across the globe.
Made from 100% Irish linen, the company’s new range of cushions include ethically sourced feather
inners, with designs inspired by Northern Ireland’s rich history and culture.
Part of its portable lounging collection, Ulster Weavers’ linen-blend bean bags and pouffes are
hardwearing and stylish.
To complement the range, an exclusive collection of luxury merino wool throws will be available in a
range of reversible designs to brighten up the home.
Echoing Ulster Weavers’ linen heritage, the designs of its Home Comforts collection are inspired by
Northern Ireland and its rich landscapes.
They include Cardinal Marble, which takes its inspiration from Armagh, the ecclesiastical capital
of Ireland; Hillsborough Floral, influenced by the stunning grounds of Northern Ireland’s only royal
residence, Hillsborough Castle & Gardens; and Limelight, which plays homage to the vibrancy of
Belfast’s rich musical history and culture and follows the city recently becoming a UNESCO City of
Music in recognition of its musical heritage and the importance of music to its future.
The Home Comforts range both celebrates Ulster Weavers’ linen heritage while reflecting its vision to
bring inspiration and craftmanship to every home in the world.
Managing Director, Gillian McLean said, “We are excited to bring our new home furnishing collection
to the market. Its launch marks a time of change and renewal for Ulster Weaves into the future.
Renowned for our rich textiles and design expertise, our Home Comforts collection responds directly to
calls from consumers for locally produced products.”
Annie David, Head of Innovation, says, “Our new collection includes sophisticated products to breathe
new life into any room. These truly individual pieces are created with inspired design and unfailing
attention to detail, reinforcing the rich textile tradition for which we have become famous.”
Inspired by Northern Ireland's stunning natural beauty and iconic locations, our Home Comforts Collection blends time-honored craftsmanship and the highest quality native materials to create a truly luxurious finish.
Handmade locally, our Home Comforts Collection marks a significant step towards supporting our local communities and producers, working together to create and manufacture homeware products that inspire and brighten homes and lives around the world.
