In adapting to the ever-changing requirements of the industry and as its customer base continues to invest in modern spinning and winding equipment, Conitex Sonoco continues to engineer more precise and specific carrier products, Carpenter added.
“We have drastically reduced lead times to meet the dynamic changes in the spinning industry,” he said. “We constantly work on process improvements to improve quality and control costs. Programs such as 6S and continuous improvement help to improve our quality and the safety of our associates.”
The company’s success is linked to the success of its customers, and Conitex Sonoco has a positive outlook for the U.S. textile industry, Carpenter added.

Our success will be determined by our ability to provide a valued service and product to our customers.”
