The company has long experience working with industrial laundries across Europe and the US, providing durable and high performance fabrics designed to withstand the demands of professional textile services.

Paul Farrell, Sales Director at Carrington Textiles, said: “Our membership of TRSA reflects our ambition to grow in the US by working even more closely with laundries and textile service providers. With fabrics engineered for durability, protection and sustainability, we see this as an opportunity to collaborate on innovation and ensure our products meet the highest expectations of the market.”

Joseph Ricci, President and CEO of TRSA, added: “We are pleased to welcome Carrington Textiles to TRSA. Their proven expertise in performance and sustainable workwear fabrics adds valuable strength to our community. Their participation will support our shared commitment to quality, safety and environmental responsibility, while giving members access to a supplier that understands the unique demands of our industry.”

Carrington Textiles produces over 130 million metres of fabric annually, exporting to more than 80 countries from its manufacturing facilities in Pakistan, Portugal and the UK. With a strong portfolio of protective, high-performance and sustainable fabrics, the company is well positioned to support TRSA members in meeting today’s challenges in hygiene, durability and environmental stewardship.
