- International_Textile_Group abstract "International Textile Group (ITG) (OTCQB: ITXN) is a diversified U.S. fabric maker based in Greensboro, North Carolina. It acquired the assets of the former Burlington Industries out of bankruptcy in late 2003, and the assets of the former Cone Mills Corporation in 2004. The company has recently ventured into the world of automotive fabrics with acquisition of Safety Components International of Greenville, SC and BST Safety Textiles of Maulburg, Germany. The company is majority-owned by private equity funds controlled by W.L. Ross & Co. LLC of New York, NY.The chairman of the company is New York-based investor Wilbur L. Ross. The company's president and CEO is Joseph L. Gorga. ITG's operating companies include:Cone DenimBurlington WorldWide ApparelBurlington House Interior FabricsCarlisle FinishingAutomotive Safety TextilesITG continues to manufacture fabrics in North America, but it has also developed fabric mills in China, Vietnam and Central America. Its best-known fabrics are denim and specialty nylon fabrics used in automotive airbag systems. Denim fabrics are made in the United States, in Greensboro, NC, in Mexico and are also now being made in China and Nicaragua in new company plants. (in the summer of 2009 ITG reported that it had closed the Nicaragua mill- which it had just opened- because its main customer moved its cut and sew operation out of Nicaragua. This makes the venture to build the plant almost a total loss to ITG). Almost all famous brands of denim fabrics purchase fabrics from Cone Denim, including Levi's, Wrangler and American Eagle. The company is also known for its worsted wool fabrics, which are made in North Carolina and in Mexico. The company has developed a source for wool fabrics in India by working with OCM India Limited, a mill in Amritsar, India, which is also owned by funds controlled by W.L. Ross & Co. Customers of the wool fabrics include many well-known makers of wool garments (such as Joseph Banks and others). The company also produces some technical fabrics, such as fabrics made of polyester and nylon. These fabrics have a variety of uses, such as in uniforms, in performance apparel items and for safety services. The ITG Automotive Group is a new development. This group manufactures fabrics and cushion for airbags, which are sold to automotive safety groups, such as Autoliv, TRW and Delphi. Many automobiles throughout the world contain ITG's safety fabrics. The fabrics and cushion are manufactured in various locations (U.S., Germany, Poland, China, Mexico).The company owns the brand BURLINGTON, which is licensed to a company in Germany for a European menswear brand. Recently, the company sold certain trademark rights to the BURLINGTON brand in Europe to FALKE, a European high-fashion brand. In September 2006, ITG announced plans to merge with Safety Components International, Inc., a Greenville, SC company that manufactures nylon fabrics that are used in automotive airbags. The merger, completed in October 2006, created a $1 billion a year revenue company. At a time when most North American textile companies are struggling for survival, with many in chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization, ITG is expanding into new markets. The merger with Safety Components was completed on October 20, 2006. The headquarters is based in Greensboro, NC.In January 2007, ITG announced that it was selling it mattress fabric product line to Culp, Inc., another U.S. textile company that is based in High Point, NC. Also during 2007, the Company has opened a mill in China that will develop apparel and interior fabrics and the Company is developing a Vietnam venture that will supply apparel fabrics and garments. On April 1, 2007, BST Safety Textiles came into the ITG family of business. By adding BST Safety Textiles ITG's business in automotive components has now grown significantly. However, in the summer of 2009, ITG's air bag unit filed bankruptcy and was taken over by secured creditors.".
