KAI Contract fabrics as made-to-measure fire retardant curtains

KAI Contract is the contract fabric brand of Ashley Wilde Group, the Hertfordshire fabric house whose roots in textiles go back to 1950. Where the Ashley Wilde and KAI ranges serve the residential market, KAI Contract is the group's range for commercial interiors, with printed flame retardant fabrics developed for hospitality, healthcare and cruise. CreateFR supplies KAI Contract made up: every fabric on this page can be ordered as a finished, made-to-measure curtain, priced instantly online, or included in a project quotation alongside the other fabric houses we carry.

What is in the KAI Contract range

  • Harrogate. A tree-lined landscape print, a pussy-willow botanical, an ikat-inspired trellis, a ticking stripe, a damask and coordinating textures in coral, sky, linen, apple and indigo tones: Baildon, Calverley, Emley, Malham, Risby, Shadwell and Stanbury; see KAI Contract Harrogate.
  • Loxley. A painterly magnolia floral, a layered botanical leaf print, a delicate trellis, a stylised fan motif and a cross-hatch texture: Amba, Brigg, Cecil, Fescue, Hanson and Rosalind; see KAI Contract Loxley.
  • Prints with coordinates. Each collection pairs its statement patterns with small-scale geometrics, stripes and semi-plains in a shared palette, so curtains, cushions and bed runners can be schemed from one book; browse all patterned and printed fabrics.

Certification

KAI Contract drapery is printed on Soft Panama FR, a 100% FR polyester base cloth. The flame retardancy is inherent to the fibre, so it will not wash out, and the cloth is certified to BS 5867 Part 2 Type B for contract curtains. The rating is listed on each product page, and test certificates are available on request.
