​
100 Years of American Made Excellence – Woven into your life. 


Just like the individual yarns that make up our fabrics, Twitchell Technical Products blends 100 years of innovative products, brand excellence, and custom solutions into a pattern of success. While very few companies in any industry have withstood the test of time to celebrate their centennial, Twitchell is proud to celebrate its 100th Anniversary. 

Twitchell celebrated Wednesday, May 11th, to recognize and thank current and retired employees, customers, and suppliers that have helped shape Twitchell Technical Product’s success over the past century.

Founded in 1922 by Earl Wagner Twitchell in Unionville, Connecticut, then moved to Philadelphia in 1930, the company initially manufactured woven and knitted paper products – the first of many industry innovations. 

Twitchell moved to Dothan in 1954 and eventually transitioned to manufacturing its current prevailing product lines, beginning in 1967 with Textilene® a PVC coated polyester fabric. Another first for the manufacturing world. Twitchell has maintained the same 33-acre manufacturing site since 1956. We pride ourselves on knowing our yarn, fabric, and textiles are made in the USA, in our Dothan, AL headquarters. 

According to Gena Webb, VP of R&D/Products, "Developing higher performing fabrics, creative designs, and expanding into new markets is how Twitchell maintained centennial success. Since the beginning, The Twitchell name has represented quality and innovation in yarns and fabrics." says Webb. "We are privileged to have continued confidence from deep-rooted customers and dedicated suppliers. Our commitment will continue as we look to our next 100 years."

​Today, as throughout its history, Twitchell continues to revolutionize the outdoor furniture, interior & exterior solar screen, specialty fabric, safety, and coating markets. With over 360 stocked fabrics available on-demand and a 1200 active custom color library, Twitchell stays committed to innovation, brand excellence and flexibility in manufacturing and design.

DOTHAN, Alabama, December 21, 2020: While it’s usually all-business around the Wiregrass Public Safety Center, first responders were treated to a little Christmas cheer thanks to a local company. First responders, including law enforcement, firefighters, EMTs and their families, enjoyed a socially distanced Christmas meal compliments of Twitchell. 

“Twitchell values and appreciates all that Dothan’s Fire and Police do for businesses and individuals, and the protection they offer,” says Paul Cleary, Twitchell Technical Products, CEO. “We wanted a way to thank them for all the training, hard work, long hours and sacrifices they make every day,” he adds.

Anti-microbial and Cleaning Information for Textilene®

7/20/2020

1 Comment

 
In a post COVID-19 era, cleaning and safety should be a top priority. With Textilene®, our fabrics are chemical resistant and anti-microbial so they stand up to heavy use and a variety of conditions; they have excellent abrasion, tear, fade and stain resistance.

Learn more about Textilene’s® uses and care below:

Mildew/Bacteria Resistance 

  • Inherent biocides are used to make our products mildew resistant.
  • All of our fabrics are also bacteria resistant.
  • The biocides will not wipe or wear off they are part of the fabric.

Chemical Resistant/Cleaning 

  • Textilene® is easy to clean. Most stains will just wipe off. For tough stains, our fabrics may be cleaned with bleach.
  • Hospital cleaners such as VitalOxide and Hydrogen Peroxide-based cleaners are useful for Textilene® fabrics. 
  • Textilene® fabric is woven from polyvinyl chloride-coated polyester core yarns. Textilene® with its proprietary polyvinyl coating, provides excellent abrasion, tear, fade, soil, and chemical resistance. This exceptional coating has been formulated to provide maximum chemical resistance by prudently selecting optimal plasticizers, stabilizers, and color additives. 
  • Textilene® fabric is resistant to a wide range of inorganic acids and alkalis. It resists many corrosive inorganic chemicals. The polyvinyl chloride coating provides excellent water resistance and low water absorption. It has been shown that most oils, alcohols, aliphatic hydrocarbons, and household detergents do not affect polyvinyl chloride. The coating also resists attacks from oxygen and ozone. The fabric is designed to resist the transfer of most types of indigo dye.
  • To clean all Textilene® Brand Fabric, sponge with a solution of one cup of mild detergent with one cup of household bleach in three gallons of water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and air-dry completely. Treat all stains as soon as possible.
