Method is woven with SEAQUAL® YARN supplemented by post-consumer recycled polyester. SEAQUAL® YARN is a blend of post-consumer recycled content and upcycled marine plastic collected as part of the SEAQUAL INITIATIVE, a global enterprise that works with NGOs and local communities to sort, wash, recycle, and repurpose ocean-reclaimed litter. Method reflects a core philosophy of the Maharam Design Studio—to reduce environmental impact wherever possible. 

 

To create Method’s organically blended crosshatch, the same yarns in the warp and weft are cross dyed with cationic and disperse dyes which gravitate toward different fibers. The Maharam Design Studio carefully reviewed the combined palettes of the existing M Series to identify opportunities for fresh color, arriving at Method’s earthy palette of twenty-five low contrast colors. Designed for broad application across both seating and upholstered walls, Method is finish-free and bleach cleanable.

General Recommendations

Treat stains promptly. The longer a stain remains on the textile, the more difficult it will be to remove. A professional furniture cleaning service is recommended.

Always pre-test any cleaning method in an inconspicuous area.

Several light applications of a cleaning agent are less harmful than a single concentrated application. Repeat stain treatment several times if necessary.

Never use heat to clean textiles. Heat can set stains.
