About Us
National Nonwovens is a global leader in developing fiber-processing technologies. Founded in 1905 as National Felt Company, initially the company produced wool felt for use in apparel and home furnishings. As the demands of emerging industries and changing markets evolved over the years, National Nonwovens adapted to their needs with leading-edge products. The company was the first in the U. S. to import needlepunch equipment from Europe for fabricating natural and synthetic fibers into nonwoven textiles. Chemical bonding was introduced, and new plants were brought on line, expanding needlepunch capabilities to meet the burgeoning requirements of apparel, medical, and industrial customers.
Today, with the operating experience of a century and with ongoing investment in emerging technologies, National Nonwovens produces a multitude of different types of materials… all of which add up to more than 15 million pounds of textiles annually. Corporate offices, along with research, engineering, and production, are located in building complexes located in Easthampton, Massachusetts. National Nonwovens continues to be committed to total control of the fabrication process.
