GT Green Sweet Table Cloth

Gallic Traditions is pleased to announce that the innovative Garnier Thiebaut “Green Sweet” stain resistant tablecloths and spill proof linens are now available in their online store at http://stores.gallictraditions.com.

Inspired by plants that always look clean because dust and grime will not stick to their surfaces, the amazing Green Sweet technology wraps individual cotton fibers with a finish that makes them repel stains and resist abrasion. Relying on the most advanced Swiss chemistry, Clariant International developed the nanotechnology used to make the Green Sweet finish that Garnier Thiebaut applies on their home linens. Nanoparticles create a bumpy structured surface on the fabric of a stain resistant tablecloth or other linen during the finishing process, which keeps liquids, solids or any kind of dirt from getting a grip on the fabric. The substances easily wipe off or brush away without leaving a stain. The Clariant International Swiss laboratories carefully test and control every model that uses the Green Sweet finish before issuing a certificate for it. Garnier Thiebaut has the exclusive world-wide license to apply the process for table linens.

The Green Sweet finish on linens makes them longer lasting as well as easy to care for, but the fabric looks and feels the same as untreated fine quality damask woven cloth. A double twisted thread jacquard weave also contributes to the cloth’s durability. Wiping the linens off with a damp sponge or cloth will keep them clean and fresh, but machine washing and drying will not harm their protective function. Consumers can contribute to improving the environment by using products with Green Sweet technology because they need laundering less frequently, which saves water, power and detergent.

Inventory Clearance from Gallic Traditions
 

It’s August already? Where has the year gone?

You may have noticed we’ve been absent from your email box for a while. We’ve been focused on several projects these last months evaluating potential store sites, upgrading and improving the website, and looking for new and exciting products for you to enjoy in your home or share with your friends and family.

While working on these projects business has continued to come in and we’ve found ourselves with extra product in our inventory. Many items are just one or two in quantity, and others we have several on hand. We thought we would offer you an opportunity for a little early holiday shopping by discounting these items for you to to stock up on for your own use or for gifts later this year.

Take a moment to visit the website and make sure to hit the Clearance center. A few of the items you will find are discontinued, but many are still active and we can order a larger additional quantities if you need more than what we have in inventory.

Be on the lookout for much more activity from us as we prepare for the holiday season and introduce many new products and more inventory items for you to choose from.  NEW ITEMS DISCOUNTED FOR QUICK SALE WEEKLY!

 Enjoy your summer and please come visit the site!
