The Leading Name in Cruise Ship Fabrics

Panaz understands the marine sector inside and out. We’ve been supplying high-quality cruise fabrics to clients since 1986, so you can be completely confident in our expertise.

Our range of curtains, bedding, and upholstery all conform to International Maritime Organisation (IMO) fire regulations, while many of our products also comply with the Marine Equipment Directive (MED) Wheel Mark standards which certify both product and supplier performance.

In addition, our innovative ShieldPlus antimicrobial technology is designed to instantly kill potentially harmful bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses — including MRSA, C-Difficile, and the Coronavirus. Total confidence when you need it the most.

Serious about Sustainability

Ensure your design projects are both stunning and sustainable with Panaz. From developing dry printing techniques that nullify the need for harsh chemicals to the creation of 100% recycled materials, we’ve consistently led the way when it comes to reducing our impact on the environment. In addition, the fact that our cruise ship fabrics are made to last means there’s no need for regular replacement — so you can look after the planet as well as your wallet.

A guide to contract fabrics for
cruise interiors / IMO

International Maritime Organisation (IMO), is a specialised agency of the United Nations. The IMO’s primary function is to maintain a regulatory framework for shipping. One of the founding pillars of the organisation is the SOLAS convention – Safety Of Life At Sea. This sets global standards for fire safety on board ships and provides the testing framework our fabrics need to pass to be considered safe to use.

There are four key tests, depending on end use of the fabric:

  • IMO 2010 FTP Part 5 – for wall panels and bulkheads.
  • IMO 2010 FTP Part 7 – for drapery and free hanging textiles.
  • IMO 2010 FTP Part 8 – for upholstered furniture.
  • IMO 2010 FTP Part 9 – for bedding components.

At Panaz we have a wide range of fabrics available within each of these categories.

interiors / MED Wheelmark

The Marine Equipment Directive (MED), enacted by the European Parliament, is a wide range of quality controls to provide guarantees around the safety of products on board ships. Meeting this directive is essential for products placed on EU flagged vessels, and there are reciprocal agreement’s in place with the US Coast Guard – who will also accept the MED’s quality mark.

When you see the Wheelmark – as you will on a wide range of our products – it means that both the product and the manufacturer have undergone an extensive range of quality control inspections by an external agency. This doesn’t just cover the IMO fire certificate, it covers production methods, internal quality control, technical specifications of each product, and globally is the most stringent inspection of materials being placed on ships.

The Wheelmark is awarded if you pass all aspects of the inspection. Products are awarded a Module B certificate and we – as the manufacturer – are awarded a Module D certificate.

Panaz are one of the few global textile providers to undergo this level of external inspection, and therefore be able to offer the Wheelmark. We take pride in placing the safety of lives at sea and quality control at the very heart of everything we do in this sector.
