(PRLEAP.COM) MAPLEWOOD, NY - Comfortex Corporation, a leading innovative manufacturer and fabricator of custom window treatment products for global distribution, captured two top awards in the prestigious ADEX Awards for Design Excellence 2005-06 competition.
The Platinum ADEX, the highest honor the judges can confer, was awarded to Comfortex Window Fashion’s Saratoga Soft Shutters™ window treatment for the way it combines innovative fabric louvers with traditional wood frames for a whole new look in shutters. Soft Shutters’ louvers allow light to gently filter through while offering a hint of unexpected texture and color giving homeowners an exciting new range of design options.
The company’s Shangri-La® DoorStyles Shadings captured the Gold ADEX thanks to its inventive solution that provides sheer horizontal shadings for sidelights, French doors and transoms without the need for a bulky head rail. The unique hardware system permits window treatments to mount and operate in places conventional sheer horizontals never could before.
The 2005-06 ADEX competition brought a record 1,505 product entries. ADEX is the largest and most prestigious awards competition for product design of furniture, fixtures and finishes marketed to the design trade. Design Journal, the international trade publication for interior designers, architects and facility managers, is the proud sponsor of the ADEX Awards.
