Maharam creates design-driven textiles and surface materials for interiors, pairing commercial upholstery and wallcoverings with collaborations by artists and designers such as Alexander Girard, Paul Smith, and Hella Jongerius. The company’s environmental work is unusually measurable: its North American facilities have held ISO 14001 certification for more than 20 years, and Maharam introduced a sample-return program in 2002 that now reclaims more than 300,000 sampling tools annually. Maharam was also the first in its industry to develop textiles that achieved GreenScreen certification, and all products introduced since June 2021 are free of intentionally added PFAS.
