For decades, U.S.-based manufacturers have faced growing competition from overseas suppliers. But with global tariffs, unpredictable shipping delays, and rising international costs, companies are starting to rethink how and where their materials are sourced. For many, working with an American manufacturer is no longer just a preference—it’s a strategic move.
Delaware Valley Corporation is a non woven fabric manufacturer that has remained fully U.S.-based since 1953. Operating out of Tewksbury, Massachusetts, the company produces needle-punched and thermal-bonded non woven textiles used across multiple industries. While others have moved operations offshore, Delaware Valley has kept every part of its production process domestic—from sourcing to fabrication to quality control.
Why U.S. Manufacturing Makes Business Sense
The trade landscape has shifted. Tariffs on imported fabrics, particularly those from Asia, have increased costs across the board. Shipping delays, port backlogs, and changing customs requirements have made overseas sourcing far less reliable. For buyers who depend on predictable lead times and pricing, these risks are too big to ignore.
By partnering with a non woven fabric manufacturer like Delaware Valley Corporation, companies can avoid many of these problems. All products are made on U.S. soil. There’s no dependence on foreign ports, no need to adjust for international tariffs, and no surprises tied to currency shifts or international trade disputes.
Serving Critical Industries with Precision and Consistency
Delaware Valley’s facility is built to support a wide range of end-uses. From automotive insulation to filtration media, the production lines are equipped to handle custom requirements, fast turnaround times, and high-volume runs.
In healthcare, the demand for medical non woven fabric has only increased. Cast padding, orthopedic wraps, breathable linings, and hypoallergenic support fabrics all require tight manufacturing tolerances and clean processing. Domestic production ensures that these products meet strict quality expectations, with full control over raw materials and testing. During global supply shortages, many U.S. hospitals and suppliers struggled to find reliable sources abroad. Delaware Valley remained operational and responsive, delivering consistent products from its Massachusetts facility.
Sustainability with Practical Benefits
Delaware Valley has long worked to reduce waste and improve material recovery. Our fabrics can include up to 100% recycled content, and many can be fully recycled after use. Unlike some manufacturers that rely on latex binders, our thermal bonding process avoids harmful adhesives. This isn’t just an environmental decision—it simplifies downstream processing and meets customer requirements for cleaner, recyclable inputs.

Companies that source from Delaware Valley Corporation benefit from stable lead times, consistent quality, and freedom from international trade disruptions. As a non woven fabric manufacturer that produces medical non woven fabric entirely in the United States, we offer a practical and cost-effective solution for buyers looking to strengthen their supply chain.
