Are we going to take back the textile market in the United States or let the overseas companies keep it ! Most of the textiles and apparel you use and wear comes from off shore, so it's a dying industry in the United States, right?...WRONG! A tremendous amount of textile and apparel research is underway right now, right here in America. For example, the North Carolina State University College of Textiles has just opened a new multi-million dollar facility dedicated to the research and use of specialty fabrics, protective clothing, automotive applications, and the list goes on. The NC State College of Textiles offers Doctor of Philosophy degrees in Fiber and Polymer Science and in Textile Technology Management and has even implemented Six Sigma Training as part of their curriculum. Would this Textile industry heavyweight be so deeply involved in quality if they didn't believe a strong market exists in the United States? Want more proof? The new Dean of the NC State College of Textiles is Dr. Blanton Godfrey. Yes, THAT Dr. Blanton Godfrey, the former President of the Juran Institute and one of the originators of the Malcolm Baldridge National Quality Award. Quality and the use of formal quality management systems are the new waves in textiles.
