Evolutionary: Performance.

For more than 25 years, Architex has crafted the highest quality and most enduring faux leathers and PVC-free nonwovens in the contract industry, through its expansive and ever-growing Authentec range. A true leader in this product category, Architex has developed, designed, tested and marketed more than one million yards and counting. Architex Authentec patterns feature heavy-duty durability and expansive color palettes, and they all meet ACT contract textile performance standards and flame requirements.

The Authentec Evolutionary Series features proprietary textile performance technology developed and tested by the largest QSR chain in the world.

This proprietary technology was first featured in the groundbreaking pattern, Evolution. Now, by popular demand, it is included in the Evolutionary Series patterns.

All patterns are engineered with enhanced stain and denim dye-transfer resistance, durability and physical performance. In addition, these patterns have been third-party tested to withstand constant cleaning from healthcare cleaning chemicals, like bleach and disinfectant-based formulas, that may come in contact with the surface.
