Precision Textiles Sells 10 Million Yards Of Medical Grade Fabric To Make 5 Million Gowns For Healthcare Workers

TOTOWA, N.J. — July 13, 2020 — Precision Textiles — a supplier of coated fabrics, nonwovens and laminations for the bedding, automotive, healthcare and home furnishings industries — has sold more than 10 million yards of its newly launched Medical Gown Series fabric line, enough material to produce 5 million hospital gowns. The milestone supports the growing demand for domestically produced medical gowns for healthcare personnel on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In early April, the company pivoted its operations to manufacturing medical grade fabrics for use in hospital gowns, a key piece of personal protective equipment (PPE) in short supply as healthcare systems across the U.S. reached capacity with patients. Produced at its New Jersey headquarters, the materials provide gown manufacturers with a domestic resource to replace imported fabrics which can have longer lead times.
