Cover design by Cathleen Rose. 2 EDITOR’S DESK Weather the storm 35 ADVERTISER INDEX 35 CALENDAR UPHOLSTERY JOURNAL | DECEMBER 2008/JANUARY 2009 1208UJ_cv1-p20.indd Sec1:1 11/25/08 1 12:28:01 PM Editor’s desk Weather the storm T his time of year, temperatures in my part of the country are dropping. A few minutes each morning are spent scraping ice from car windows, and daily walks to the coffee shop hardly seem worth the bundling and shivering. The baristas next door probably don’t appreciate that sentiment (especially since Starbucks’ numbers are down). A lot of other businesses are feeling the chill too. The Labor Department reported that the consumer price index fell 1.0 percent in October. This meant more to me when I read that it was the biggest one-month decrease in consumer prices since they started measuring these things more than 60 years ago. Like our temperatures, the economy is taking a pitch. And like weather reporters, financial forecasters can’t seem to make up their minds about when it will turn around, either. Whenever it turns—and it will sometime—it’s crucial now to keep up with the competition. Use this buyer’s guide to spark new ideas about your business. Look through the product listings and explore opportunities for pursuing new markets, offer what the other guy doesn’t and keep up with the technology available. Find fabrics, tools and equipment to make new products that will differentiate your business from others. You can even find fellow upholsterers if you want to talk shop. Use this guide to stay on top of the game. Upholstery Journal is here to help you grow your business. Upcoming topics will cover the custom upholstery market, nanotechnology in fabric finishes, and automotive techniques. The New Product Showcase features cutting-edge new fabrics and tools to expedite processes and make your job easier. And submissions are being accepted for the annual Design & Craftsmanship Awards; find the application on page 34. Everyone is tired of hearing about the economy, but, like the seasons, it will improve. For now, I think I’ll just bundle up and get a cup of coffee.

In its modern production facilities in Rhode Island, American Cord & Webbing manufactures and distributes a complete line of high-performance plastic and metal fasteners, as well as the latest styles in narrow textile webbing and elastic and non-elastic cord. The company’s product lines include: » Textile Narrow Webbing division manufacturing polypropylene, nylon and polyester products, which meet both military and commercial specifications. » Injection Molding division offering a large selection of injection-molded side-release buckles, d-rings, snap hooks and loops, as well as custom molds to meet customer requirements. » Fabrication/Assembly division providing custom assemblies to meet customer specifications. Capabilities include cutting, sewing, hole punching, sonic welding and packaging. In both the Rhode Island and California warehouses, American Cord & Webbing maintains a large stock position on all product lines, giving the company the ability to respond quickly to customer needs. » Founded in 1904 as a local upholstery business in Grand Rapids, Mich., Burch Fabrics Group grew from a national, multi-location supplier to an international distributor of upholstery fabric, vinyl, polyurethane, vertical panel fabrics and accessories to the residential and commercial furniture trades. Our converting division, Showcase Fabrics, began in 1996. It offers residential manufacturers our exclusive imported designs from Italy and China, with a cost saving in-stock program. In 2008, Burch Fabrics revolutionized the residential reupholstery market by offering hundreds of its best-selling Showcase designs to the upholsterer. We made this direct import program available at the same pricing offered to manufacturers. This equates to a 40 to 50 percent savings to the residential upholsterer for cut yardage. Not all companies can keep pace with the products and innovative ideas like we have, such as our Ultrasuede, Crypton Super Fabrics, Sunbrella outdoor fabrics, leather, vinyl and polyurethane options. If your supply chain isn’t on the leading edge and tracking the moving target for you, it will cost you more than just profits. Let us be your ideal supplier that brings you service, savings and success.
