Precision Textiles Restructures to Maximize Nationwide Efficiency

Precision Textiles, supplier of coated fabrics, nonwovens and laminations for the bedding, automotive, health care and home furnishings industries, has completed the redistribution of its manufacturing and distribution footprint in the United States.
The moves by its corporate headquarters to 90 New Dutch Lane, N.J., warehouse/distribution center in Phoenix, and its Troy, North Carolina facility has been positioned as the core of its production for the home furnishings industry.
Together, the three facilities bring its total domestic manufacturing and distribution capacity to more than 300,000 square feet of space.
The move of its corporate headquarters is the result of the company’s evolution from being a large apparel supplier, which at one time required a significant New York metropolitan area plant, to its more recent position as the premier FR Solution provider to the mattress industry, which is more concentrated in the south.
The new 100,000 square-foot headquarters in Fairfield allows the company to serve its northeastern customers efficiently and effectively, while putting more capability in its Troy, North Carolina plant.
Precision Textiles’ 50,000 square-foot Phoenix manufacturing and distribution plant was opened to eventually produce all the company’s bedding product lines, further expanding its volume of high loft quilting fiber and needle-punch nonwovens in the United States. The plant focuses on serving the company’s western customers more effectively.
“The reception Precision has received in the mattress industry over the last few years has been amazing. Through that growth, we also have evolved our strategy as to how best redistribute our manufacturing and distribution to more efficiently and effectively serve our customers, which is reflected in this new facilities plan,” said Scott Tesser, chief executive officer of Precision Textiles.
The 170,000 square-foot Troy plant that opened during September 2021, once a textile production facility for the automobile industry, was the company’s first domestic manufacturing facility outside its New Jersey headquarters.
It doubled the manufacturer’s needle-punch nonwovens production and boosted its high-loft quilting fiber output by 50 percent after the New Jersey production facility was nearing full capacity.
“The strategic layout of our manufacturing plants and offices give our clients, both existing and new, great accessibility to our services,” Tesser added. “Our customers appreciate not only our quality products, but our commitment to deliver in a timely manner.”
“In an industry where manufacturing and shipping time is incredibly important, our customers need to have a reliable supplier who understands their manufacturing requirements and need for expeditious delivery of textile products.”
