wall was a door to the future.
One of the first products of
Burlington Mills was a bedspread
crude by today's standards, since
it was made from a blend of ray
on and cotton and sewed together
down the middle because no loom
was wide enough to turn out one
piece of needed width.
30 New Plants
By 1937, Burlington had estab
lished 30 new rayon weaving
plants with sales of $37,000,000 an
nually and that year made its
first public stock offering on the
New York Stock Exchange. Every
year since, Burlington has earned
a profit and paid consecutive
dividends.
The company weathered the
"Great Depression", expanding
while other textile mills were
closing. In 1038, Burlington began
building full-fashioned hosiery
plants, the same year that DuFont
introduced nylon. And when war
came in 1M1, Burlington had 40
plants and sales of $03,000,000.
Burlington's pace accelerated
after World War II. through in
ternal expansion and acquisition
of promising companies in other
textile fields. Theee developments
brought Burlington into tricot
fabrics, for lingerie and blouses,
into the ribbon and narrow fabrics
business, more significantly than
ever into hosiery and for the first
time into the dyeing and finish
ing field. Later there were even
broader diversifications into wool
ens, worsteds, cottons, vinyl-coated
fabrics, glass fabrics, upholstery
fabrics, and many others.
Endless Array
Burlington produces an endless
array of textile products. It is a
major supplier of fabrics for every
type of apparel, for the home, and
for Industrial uses. It is the largest
weaver of man-made fibers, of
worsteds and woolens, of glass
fabrics, the largest of hosiery
manufacturers and one of the
largest factors In cotton textiles.
In place of the one fiber, rayon.
Burlington was using 36 years
ago, today the company utilizes
more than 26 natural and man
made fibers, as well as blends of
the various fibers which make
possible new and better fabrics,
each with special advantages for
particular uses.
