The Atkins & Pearce Story

The Atkins and Pearce story begins in 1817 with the company's founders, John and Henry Pearce, two artists with an entrepreneurial spirit and an eye for invention. They devised an adaptation of the cotton gin and began manufacturing and selling their version of the “spin-gin” that same year.

Fast forward from those humble beginnings to today and you find Atkins & Pearce thriving as a global producer of both precision engineered textiles and textile-based products. Our company has some very special attributes that have allowed us to survive and thrive for nearly 200 years. We are now more dynamic than ever before, continually adding new capabilities that will afford us unprecedented room to grow.
