(Roseville, Minn. – Oct. 3, 2007) Iverson’s Design, Olympia Washington was recognized with the 2007 International Achievement Award (IAA) presented by the Industrial Fabrics Association International (IFAI) for its exceptional specialty fabric projects.

Entries in 28 categories were judged by a diverse panel of industry experts, editors, architects, educators and design professionals selected for their knowledge of the particular category of competition. Judging was based on complexity, design, workmanship, uniqueness and function.

The competition is sponsored by IFAI, a not-for-profit trade association whose member companies represent the international specialty fabrics marketplace. The 2007 International Achievement awards were presented during IFAI Expo 2007, the largest annual specialty fabrics event.
