Leigh Fibers x Revive Fiber
Leigh Fibers’ owners have completed the acquisition of the operating assets of Martex Fiber, marking a significant development in the textile recycling industry. The business has been rebranded as Revive Fiber, and it will operate alongside Leigh Fibers as separate but interconnected sister companies under joint management. This strategic move solidifies their position as the largest textile recycler in North America.
With multiple production facilities across South Carolina and one in Brownsville, Texas, this investment significantly expands capacity to meet the growing production demands. Despite the expansion, both Leigh Fibers and Revive Fiber remain committed to manufacturing all products in the United States, supporting industries across North America, South America, and Europe.
Daniel Mason, co-owner of Leigh Fibers and Revive Fiber, emphasized the benefits of the acquisition for customers, highlighting the broadened resources and enhanced capabilities of both companies. The combined expertise enables them to offer a comprehensive range of products, including recycled fibers, eco-friendly chemistry, toll manufacturing, and nonwoven solutions.
Both companies remain committed to sustainability, assisting organizations in meeting their environmental goals by diverting waste streams from landfills. Their solutions not only help reduce waste but also create new revenue opportunities for manufacturers. “Sustainability is at the core of our identity,” stated Mason. “We are dedicated to developing green solutions that benefit both profit margins and the planet.”
