Mount Vernon FR adds flame resistant finishing line as part of Trion, Ga. expansion
Company increases capacity to support growth and demand for flame resistant fabrics
In response to increased demand for its flame resistant products, Mount Vernon FR has announced the expansion of operations at its Trion, Georgia, facility. The additional 4,500 square feet of production space will be home to new state-of-the-art FR treatment equipment that will increase Mount Vernon FR’s production and finished fabric capacity by 20%.
“This is an exciting time for Mount Vernon FR, but our rapid growth has presented challenges with space to accommodate the equipment required to manufacture an ever-expanding range of FR products,” said Mike Woods, vice president of flame resistant fabrics for Mount Vernon FR. “This additional square footage will allow us to better serve current and future customer demand.”
