History
Our history begins in the late 1800s with The National Whalebone Company. In 1925 they became the National Fabric Corporation and included a subsidiary named Darlington Textile Corporation. In 1941 after a merger with Mazuy Mills, Darlington Fabrics Corporation was formed and in 1972 proudly joined what is now the Moore Company Textile Group. More than a century after our founding, we continue the long tradition of developing innovative and superior products that elevate brands.
Large Volume Warp Knitter
Darlington Fabrics is your source for premium, warp-knit fabrics. Warp knits feature many superior properties compared to performance fabrics made using a weft knit. Made with multiple parallel yarns that are simultaneously looped vertically to form the fabric, unlike weft knits, warp knits do not run, are resistant to slips, rips and abrasions, and have excellent stretch recovery properties.
