Universal Fibers® expands Nylon 6,6 capabilities amid fiber market shifts
Universal Fibers, a global leader in innovative fiber solutions, has announced a significant expansion in its Nylon 6,6 capabilities to address evolving customer needs and changes in the fiber market. This strategic move comes in response to Ascend’s recent exit from the bulked continuous filament (BCF) fiber business, creating opportunities for Universal Fibers to further strengthen its position as a reliable partner in the carpet and textile industries.
The company’s latest investments focus on increasing spinning capacity for Solution Dyed Nylon (SDN) and natural yarn offerings in Nylon 6,6. These enhancements will enable Universal Fibers to meet growing market demands for durable, high-performance, and sustainable fiber solutions. The emphasis on Nylon 6,6 underscores its continued importance in the carpet industry, where its performance qualities are highly valued.
“Universal Fibers is excited to capitalize on this opportunity,” stated Marc Ammen, CEO of Universal Fiber SystemsSM. “These new resources will not only enhance our product portfolio but also reaffirm our commitment to customer satisfaction, innovation, and long-term growth. Supporting our customers through these industry transitions remains our top priority.”
Renowned for its expertise in diverse fiber chemistries, Universal Fibers is uniquely positioned to offer flexible and tailored solutions. The company’s investment highlights its dedication to delivering innovative, sustainable, and high-performing products, further solidifying its role as a trusted partner in the industry
