Ricky Richards’ Australian made Barrington canvas is releasing a new suite of on-trend colours.
“We are excited to announce that in 2019, Ricky will launch new colours of Barrington inspired directly by Colorbond,” confirmed Ricky Richards Director Ron Gottlieb. “It is wonderful to be able to align ourselves with a trusted brand and give our customers the choice of colours that complement an existing outdoor area.”
“It has now been over three years since the Barrington Collection was launched into the Australian market and it has gone from strength to strength,” he added.
“Late in 2014 the team at Ricky developed concepts for a new canvas collection to enhance choice available to customers in and from the external awning and blinds industry. Once they put their ideas together, they contacted longstanding industry friend Wax Converters Textiles to bring these concepts to life. Not long after, the Barrington Collection was launched.”
The Barrington Collection is a stylish set of fabrics that offer a modern flair whilst still incorporating traditional aesthetics. With over 48 solid colour and striped design options, the 100% Australian made poly/cotton painted canvas is made up of three ranges: Colours, which host the same colour on both the front and reverse side; Artisan, a set of striped designs with a unique grey backing; and Jubilee, which comprises striped designs with a traditional green back.
“An external awning utilising Barrington fabric help to reduce solar heat gain by over 95%. Every range is mould, mildew and stain resistant along with being extremely durable and easy to clean. Barrington fabrics are supported by a full 10-year warranty giving you confidence and ensuring you have support long after you have purchased the product. Barrington fabrics have a protective coating system called ‘Bio-UltraShield’ which incorporates a double treatment antimicrobial process. This treatment helps to provide maximum colour vibrancy and protection against the elements.”
Gottlieb commented that the partnership between Ricky Richards and Wax Converters Textiles went beyond industry history. “It helps promote Australian owned companies manufacturing and selling Australian made fabrics and that makes both family businesses very proud.”
