GSF will continue operating from its Graniteville, SC facility, ensuring continued excellence in customer service and operational continuity for customers, partners, and employees. However, the GSF team, brand, and product lines will integrate into BPT.
"We're thrilled to have Graniteville Specialty Fabrics as part of the Bondcote Performance Textiles family, and we extend a warm welcome to every member of the GSF organization," says Jacob Furbee, group president & CEO of XFS Global & Bondcote Performance Textiles. "GSF brings a legacy of excellence, innovation, and customer focus that aligns perfectly with our values and strategic direction. This acquisition is more than combining product lines — it strengthens our shared future as a trusted partner to the defense and industrial textile markets."
GSF has a rich history dating back to the post-World War II era, where it emerged as a pioneer in coated textiles. Over the decades, GSF has supported mission-critical applications including military tentage, fire-resistant fabrics, and high-durability materials for the industrial sector. Their innovations have been crucial to U.S. armed forces and first responders, while powering commercial uses across construction, transportation, and recreation. Bondcote Performance Textiles, headquartered in Pulaski, VA, is a premier manufacturer of coated, laminated, and composite textiles for high-performance defense, commercial and industrial applications.
