RIM Fabrics was founded over 24 years ago and was purchased in 2010 by Innova International.
The new ranges Sensation Woven, Metrocentric and Revelation Woven were introduced from 2020 onwards to replace the original RIM offerings. To date these new fabrics have received enormous support from customers and clients alike in a multitude of workstation, screen, acoustic, divider, panel, pinboard and operable wall / door applications.
The RIM commitment to high levels of customer service, superior quality and value continues to this day and Innova International is proud to offer two Australian made ranges in Metrocentric and Revelation.
Innova also branched out into acoustic panels in 2018 with our Sotto Voce range. Ranges are currently stocked in 6mm, 20 and 24mm. 12mm is coming.
Acoustic Transparency
Acoustic transparency has long been a key feature of the RIM ranges and the product is widely utilised in the Acoustics industry for their aesthetic benefits when wrapping baffles and acoustic batts.
Anti-Bacterial
The Revelation Woven range is manufactured locally in Victoria with yarn treated with the world renowned Swiss anti-bacterial Sanitized product making it highly suitable for applications in the health and aged care sectors.
Fire Retardancy
All the Rim ranges pass existing Fire regulations AS 1530.3 and Group 1 (NCC) as per AS5637.1 (2015)
Increased Density
The Sotto Voce PET panels are purposely produced to a higher density (7.2% on average) than competing panels in the marketplace. This increased density makes Sotto Voce far more stable, more rigid for easier fabrication, handling, and better performance with reduced denting, warping, and sagging in application.
GENERAL CARE
• Regular light vacuum cleaning is recommended. Avoid using hard brushes or harsh rubbing techniques.
• Soiled areas can be cleaned using upholstery or carpet shampoos. DO NOT use soap or dishwashing detergents. First vacuum the area to be treated. DO NOT use excessive water as it may affect the adhesive or substrate the fabric is attached to.
E.g. Gyprock may bubble or split, plywood may distort, or the fabric may delaminate.
• For commercial installations, use an extractive carpet cleaner. An inconspicuous area should be tested first to ensure the substrate is not affected.
• Commercial dry cleaning of large areas of wall covering IS NOT recommended.
STAIN REMOVAL
Early detection is the key to successful stain removal. Always wipe stain from ‘outside in’ to avoid spreading.
