Marina Mill
Derived from EXTERIOR TEXTILE, EXTEX is the brand name for Marina Mill's award-winning* range of luxury furnishing fabrics designed for OUTDOOR USE. Marina Mill is a family business that has produced high-quality interior fabrics for over twenty years, a large proportion of these bespoke textiles being for the marine industry at the highest levels. This involvement in luxury yacht projects revealed that the majority of fabrics available to use on the outdoor deck furniture were dull, drab and coarse. EXTEX was conceived in 2002 by Keith Rawkins (Co-founder and Chairman of Marina Mill) as an exciting alternative, blending easy-care practicality with sophisticated style and softness. Incorporating specially spun chenille yarns, 'Mull' was the first EXTEX fabric range developed by Marina Mill, its solid colours forming the basis of the extensive EXTEX colour palette. The subsequent ranges of plains, stripes, textures and patterns have all been designed to complement and coordinate with one another. A favourite of superyacht designers, owners and crew alike, EXTEX is now emerging successfully into other markets. The fabrics can be found on deck, garden, beach and spa furnishings, in villas and hotels across the globe. Rest assured, from start to fabulous finish, all EXTEX fabrics are designed, coloured, overseen and controlled by its dedicated devotees at Marina Mill. Extex is available to buy direct from us at the mill - tel: +44 (0)1634 718871, email: [email protected] or from a few carefully selected distributors around the world. *BCFA Product Approval Awards - awarded by the British Contract Furnishing Association to an outstanding textile product.
