Momentum Textiles & Wallcovering is proud to unveil the launch of the world’s first bio-sourced carbon-neutral, recyclable Type II Vinyl wallcovering, Circon. The revolutionary offering addresses the market’s demand for a high-performing yet environmentally responsible solution for commercial interiors, created entirely in North America in partnership with Versa Designed Surfaces.
Circon harnesses the affordability, performance, and aesthetics of traditional vinyl wallcoverings while incorporating bio-sourced, rapidly renewable resources into over 70% of its composition. Key components include 100% renewable wood-based feedstock sourced from sustainable forestry and an algae-like base material that sequesters carbon during its formation.
This unique composition significantly reduces fossil fuel-derived PVC content and the product’s carbon footprint, while also helping to offset emissions during production. A closed-loop lifecycle is ensured through complete recyclability and a comprehensive reclamation program. In addition, all excess or selvage created during manufacturing is immediately recycled to minimize waste and maximize material lifespan.
The debut of the Circon collection boasts four bespoke designs — Zari, Miro Texture, Miro and Loma — all crafted to aesthetically celebrate nature’s organic beauty and the renewal it inspires. Beyond the four primary patterns, Circon can be specified for any of the 100+ designs in the Momentum Versa Collection, as well as any of Momentum’s artist collaborations such as the award-winning Yinka Ilori x Momentum collection, and any custom designs.
Along with the Sustainable Solutions team, VP of Sustainability Julia Gillespie leveraged her extensive eco-friendly solutions expertise in the conception of Circon to bring this impactful and resilient wallcovering solution to the industry and is celebrating the product’s Best of NeoCon win.
