Baldwin x Graniteville
Graniteville Specialty Fabrics has raised the bar by adopting a new approach to fabric finishing, challenging the traditional pad finishing process. By leveraging Baldwin Technology’s cost-effective and highly eco-friendly spray finishing technology, the company has improved production efficiency while reducing chemical and water waste.
