Sustainability at work

Making a mark by not leaving one

Our evergreen commitment to being one of the top sustainable textile companies begins yet extends beyond superior service and operational excellence; it's about actively pursuing and tying sustainability through every thread of our business.

With a strong dedication to eco-friendly upholstery fabric and wallcovering solutions, we innovate continuously to lessen our environmental footprint from our buildings to our packaged shipments. By focusing on sustainable commercial upholstery textile, wallcoverings, and even sustainable acoustic panels--and partnering with other sustainable textile companies--we ensure that our products, operations, and community engagements reflect our dedication to sustainable measures, one cut and material at a time.

Designing with Purpose: Our Commitment to ESG

For over three decades, Momentum has set the pace for forward-thinking design, weaving sustainability and innovation into every thread of our products and processes. Our commitment extends beyond what we offer; it guides how we support our employees, empower our customers, and care for the communities and ecosystems we share.

In 2024, we published our first ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) Report, marking a defining moment in our commitment to transparency and sustained innovation. Beyond measuring our environmental footprint, this report embodies our core mission: promoting human health, strengthening community wellbeing, and upholding ethical business practices that benefit everyone and our planet.

At Momentum, purposeful design propels progress in the material world, enhancing the spaces where we gather, work, and thrive. Our ESG Report underscores our responsibility to balance design excellence with environmental, social and governance accountability. The materials we design and supply are as aesthetically impactful and high-performing as they are sustainable. By sharing our progress and holding ourselves accountable through ESG, we continue to craft interiors that inspire trust, enhance quality of life, and advance environmental stewardship — collectively building a greener future, one project at a time.

Operations

Focused on reducing our footprint annually, we've implemented major changes to our headquarters including an investment in solar panels to allow us opportunities to be a net energy producer. In addition to a cool roof, insulation, windows and more to decrease the need for heating and cooling, these initial efficiencies allowed us to eliminate 85.2 tons of carbon—and we're not done yet.

    Continuous improvement

    We're always evaluating if a product can be made with recycled content. Less energy, less water, producing less greenhouse gas emissions or diverting material from the landfill—a constant commitment to doing what's right is at our core.

Community

Our engagement in the community is driven by a fundamental principle: it's simply the right thing to do for people and the planet at large. This commitment not only interweaves a strong team spirit within our company but also strengthens our ties with the community around us. Our vision for a better world, inspired by sustainable commercial upholstery textiles and eco-friendly practices, extends far beyond our walls—it influences every aspect of our operations and outreach.
