Traditional Values, Innovative Spirit: Inman Mills And USTER Share A Vision Of Progress
USTER, Switzerland — April 19, 2018 — Textile manufacturers and their
technology suppliers face many challenges in common, in an increasingly
competitive and quality-conscious business. That’s why it’s important
that they share a vision of excellence, which fosters both individual
success and technological progress. Well-known North American textile
producer Inman Mills is a prime example, in its relationship with USTER.
Both companies have a proud heritage, founded on ‘traditional’ values –
and a strong commitment to innovation.
Inman Mills produces some of the world’s most advanced fabrics for a
wide range of applications. Its spinning and weaving plants are well
established throughout the Southeast portion of the United States. The
mill founded in 1901 near Spartanburg, South Carolina, is one of the
oldest and most traditional in the world. “If there’s one thing that we
as humans can always count on it’s change. Inman Mills has a long
history of change and adaptation in an attempt to stay ahead of the
game,” says Bill Bowen, Vice President of Inman Mills. The company’s
tradition relies on the core values and principles that have maintained
its position as a key player in an ever-changing industry, constantly
adapting and improving to suit the demands of an expanding global
market.
The road to quality
USTER’s `Think Quality´ approach is an invitation to spinners to
follow the USTER route to developing their yarn production towards
higher customer satisfaction and business success. Aiming to help
customers succeed in today’s harsh and competitive market conditions,
USTER has evolved this support into a quality-focused mill management
approach. This means that producing the required yarn quality is matched
with the most efficient use of raw material. The target is to avoid
waste and increase production speed as much as possible, without
interfering with the other manufacturing goals. USTER’s mission is to
utilize innovative technology to equip spinners for mill optimization at
the highest level – without risking claims.
