North America's Leigh Fibers, Revive Fiber to expand capabilities

With multiple production facilities in South Carolina and one in Brownsville, Texas, this investment expands capacity to meet growing production needs. All products will continue to be made in the US while supporting industries throughout North America, South America, and Europe.

“The acquisition of these assets will benefit customers of both companies. While the companies will remain separate, we have broadened and deepened our resources, improving our capabilities and expertise. Nobody else can provide the same breadth of products from recycled fibres, eco-friendly chemistry, toll manufacturing, and nonwoven solutions,” said Daniel Mason, co-owner of Leigh Fibers and the newly formed Revive Fiber.

The two companies provide a seamless solution for textile recycling, from high-volume to specialty custom fibres, across industries including automotive, apparel, bedding, and acoustic insulation. A greater raw material base and production capacity will expand sourcing options for customers seeking quality recycled fibres, the company said in a press release.

As the end users of a wide range of textile byproducts, both companies remain committed to helping organisations meet sustainability goals by diverting waste streams from landfills. The solutions allow manufacturers to reduce waste and create new revenue opportunities.

“Sustainability is core to who we are,” Mason added. “We’re passionate about developing green solutions that are good for profit and the planet.”

Leigh Fibers and Revive Fibers have over 150 years of combined experience in textile recycling. This acquisition positions both companies for stronger sustainable growth while better servicing customers.
