Perception is everything when implementing an important event. Set the scene with the best in beautiful linens, great looking uniforms, trend-forward décor, and other memorable products.


CORT introduces the new Larson Collection

One of the hottest trends in 2016 is the growing resurgence of Danish modern designs. The simplistic forms, quality craftsmanship, and warmer organic qualities such as wood grain are rich and enduring. Wood framed soft seating combined with organic elements like greenery and softer color shades help ground an event and create a sense of calm. 

CORT introduced several new collections for 2016 that translate this trend for the event planner including the new Danish modern inspired Larson sofa and chair featuring a walnut wood frame base and comfortable white vinyl seats.

A nice selection for tablecloths is natural linen weave. Soft texture, our Panama fabric is a great choice. The extra wide width ensures no seams are on top of the table. Pair it with a matte satin napkin for an elegant setting. Plus, now you can print on it, too!
