3 Technical Fabrics for Global Industry A Legacy of Innovation BGF Industries, a Porcher Industries company, has been manufacturing fiberglass and other high performance fabrics for an ever-growing range of applications since Our heritage as an innovator and developer of quality fabrics extends back even further to 1885, when Porcher Industries was renowned for its fine woven silk goods. Since then, Porcher Industries and its related group companies has grown to become a global leader in the manufacture of woven and nonwoven technical textiles made from fiberglass, carbon, aramid and other high performance fibers for many industries including Filtration, Automotive, Construction, Composites, Electronics, and Marine. Today, the diverse capabilities of the Porcher Groupe continue to expand in order to provide our partners in the world-wide marketplace the latest in innovation, technology and service. Over these past 100+ years, we ve earned a reputation as a company of firsts: the first weaver of broad glass fabrics the first company to develop a patented process for heat-cleaning fabrics that improves the physical properties of composites the first company to develop warp sizes that allow for weaving with low twist single yarns the first finisher with in-house techniques that improve interfacial bonding of resins to glass the first weaver to develop unidirectional fabrics the first company to develop a product using DE filaments to improve composite arrangements the first in the industry to launch an internet presence the first to offer an integrated business-to-business program (B2BGF) providing customers improved business counications Reinforcement Fabrics BGF Industries develops special reinforcement fabrics to fit each customer s specific needs, giving strength and integrity to any composite product. We serve a variety of industries, including automotive, aerospace, marine, and composite fabrication. While we offer many standard styles, 80% of reinforcement products are used in customized single-use applications. Selected BGF reinforcement products satisfy MIL-Y-1140 and other appropriate specifications as requested. Custom finishes can be formulated for specific resins. Applications Automotive prototypes Aerospace tooling Automotive tooling Fiberglass repair kits Marine reinforcement Metal reinforcement Coating substrates Surfboard reinforcement Sporting goods Acoustical facing Polymeric film reinforcement Audio/Visual screens Roofing Infrastructure Quality & Service Our coitment to quality continues throughout the process with our extensive, modern distribution system. In fact, BGF has successfully upgraded its ISO registration to 9001:2000, which requires us to plan and manage the processes necessary for the continual improvement of our quality management system.
