Industrial Sewing Services

At Forest City Industrial Sewing, we provide industrial sewing of high performance fabrics for the defense, manufacturing, and machinery industries. We specialize in sewing advanced materials such as aluminized Kevlar, ceramic blanket insulation, fiberglass fabrics, and silica cloth, among others, for covers, insulation blankets, bellows, and other specialized applications.

Our team has a longstanding relationship with the defense industry and is well versed in applicable military specifications. There are no minimum or maximum orders for what we are able to produce. Multiple in-house processes, including die cutting, slitting, programmable sewing machines, and computerized strip cutting (hot and cold) afford us the ability to optimize operations for a given product size, volume, and complexity. The lead time for each project is evaluated on an individual basis depending on scope and customer needs. For rush orders, we have been able to complete projects in as little as one day.
