The
quest for quality begins as we select the raw materials that will
become A&E threads. Only the finest grades of cotton, synthetic
staple fibers and filaments will do. By developing partnerships
with our suppliers, we assure regular deliveries of superior
materials. This is a process improvement that adds value to our
products right from the start. Manufacturing processes are
governed by benchmarks or established standards for production and
quality control. We compete with our own success to achieve
still higher levels of performance. Finished thread is tested
repeatedly to assess its strength and sewability. But, rigorous
testing in our government certified laboratory is not enough.
Customer feedback is critical to be process of creating threads that
stand up to the job.

|
A&E®. There is a difference®.
It's threads that meet the
highest standards.
|
Making the Right Choice:
For information on
selecting the right thread for the right job, see
Selection Logic and
Thread Selection by End Use. Also, American &
Efird offers a thread education workshop, called
Threaducation®, on how to select the best thread for a
specific application. For more information, send an
email to our Industrial Sales Division. |
