Our business is split into three separate business units – Technical Textiles, Textile/Fibre Recycling and Powder Mixing   They operate with a common focus, which is to partner our customers closely so that we can add value to their products through technical and commercial differentiation.  We make yarns and fabrics that serve industries such as composite reinforcements, marine, seals and packings and automotive.  Our powder mixing facility feeds clients in the automotive friction and rubber compounding sectors, where we work closely with our customers and mix to their desired specifications, providing lab and technical assistance where necessary.  Our technical team have a wealth of knowledge and experience in understanding the challenges our customers face and work with them to offer solutions.

We are specialists in the manufacture of technical yarns and fabrics, predominately taking core materials such as para-aramid, glass fibre, natural fibres and manmade fibres through our vertically integrated manufacturing processes.  Additionally, our ability to very accurately blend different fibres to produce our products mean we can offer bespoke specifications to our customers.
