CINCINNATI, Oct. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Standard Textile Co., Inc., a global leader in healthcare and hospitality textiles, proudly announces a standout performance at the 2024 Nightingale Awards, held at the Healthcare Design Conference + Expo in Indianapolis on October 7, 2024. The company earned four awards, including the highest recognition for both sustainability and innovation: AMY™ Privacy Curtain was awarded Best of Sustainability, and Newton® Wand Chain-Free Solar Shade earned Best of Innovation.

In addition to Best of Sustainability, AMY™ won Gold in the "Architectural Products: Non-Clinical" category as the industry's first all-fabric privacy curtain designed to simplify curtain management in healthcare settings. By eliminating metal hooks and plastic carriers, its unique one-piece design makes curtain changes up to five times faster, significantly reducing time and labor for Environmental Services (EVS) teams. Additionally, AMY™ dramatically reduces noise during curtain operation creating a quieter healing environment. Its sustainability focus extends beyond materials, offering a holistic solution that enhances efficiency, minimizes disruptions, and supports long-term well-being for both patients and healthcare staff.

Recognized for Best of Innovation, Newton® Wand also earned Gold in the "Window Shading & Treatments" category for its ADA-compliant, chain-free design that enhances safety, durability, and accessibility. This innovative solar shade simplifies operation with an intuitive wand control that requires less than 5 pounds of force, ensuring ease of use for all. Certified as "Best for Kids" by the Window Covering Manufacturers Association (WCMA), Newton® meets industry safety standards, offering a safer, more elegant solution for healthcare environments.

"These four awards, particularly the top honors for sustainability and innovation, are a testament to our relentless pursuit of human-centric, transformative solutions in healthcare design," said Todd Steele, Vice President of Interiors Group Sales and Business Development at Standard Textile. "We are proud to be recognized for delivering products that not only improve operational efficiency but also contribute to better patient care and environmental responsibility."
