Ultrafabrics x Pantone
Ultrafabrics has partnered with Pantone to unveil an exclusive color palette inspired by Pantone’s Color of the Year. Rooted in the warmth of Mocha Mousse, Pantone’s 2025 color, the “Simple Pleasures” palette invites designers to find inspiration in life’s quiet joys through a selection of seven calming, high-performance alternative leathers.
The palette captures everyday comforts with colors such as Chai Latte (inspired by Mocha Mousse), Tusk, Mica, Savanna, Burnt Ochre, Coral Reef, and Sage. These soothing hues are available in select Ultrafabrics collections, reflecting a sense of tranquility and emotional connection through sustainable design.
“With the Simple Pleasures palette, we celebrate the beauty of life’s quiet moments,” said Barry Silverman, Vice President of Marketing & Branding at Ultrafabrics. “Our collaboration with Pantone enables us to translate the emotional impact of color into tactile, high-performance materials for contemporary environments.”
Ultrafabrics’ alternative leathers are designed for durability and comfort across sectors like aviation, automotive, hospitality, healthcare, and residential design. Manufactured using Takumi™ Technology, they offer a luxurious soft-touch feel, extensive wear resistance, and enhanced environmental credentials.
Certified to the highest standards, the Simple Pleasures collection is bleach-cleanable, REACH compliant, SCS Indoor Advantage Gold certified, and made without harmful substances such as PFAS, PVC, or added formaldehyde.
