BRISTOL, Virginia — December 19, 2024 — As the fiber market continues to evolve, Universal Fibers, a leader in innovative fiber solutions, continues its substantial investment in assuring customers have access to nylon 6,6 natural yarn offerings. In response to Ascend’s recent decision to exit the BCF fiber business, this proactive move positions Universal Fibers to support transitioning customers with a comprehensive product lineup while reaffirming its commitment to excellence and reliability to provide critical support to customers navigating the evolving industry landscape.
With a firm belief in the ongoing relevance of Nylon 6,6 in the carpet industry, Universal Fibers is committed to protecting and preserving the business of its valued customers. This commitment is reinforced by recent and continued capital investments in new spinning capacity that supports Solution Dyed Nylon (SDN) and natural yarn offerings in Nylon 6,6. By expanding the availability of natural yarns, Universal Fibers aims to meet evolving market demands with superior products.
“Universal Fibers is excited to capitalize on this opportunity,” said Marc Ammen, CEO of Universal Fiber SystemsSM. “We are confident that the addition of these resources will complement our existing product offerings and further underpin our commitment to product innovation, customer satisfaction, and long-term growth.
