Boreal by Morbern was awarded the Innovation Environmental Award based on its distinction in the marketplace, benefit to the marine industry and the environment, and practicality.  Boreal is a more environmentally sustainable vinyl upholstery fabric. It is free of heavy metals; uses a water based topcoat and utilizes Repreve®, a recycled polyester yarn, in its substrate.
