Glen Raven, North Carolina The team at Commercial Sewing began the origins of Sur Last® by defining the requirements and testing of a new fabric that changed the industry for water repellency, UV longevity, anti-microbial finish and durability. In 1993, CSI collaborated with Glen Raven Technical Fabrics to develop the solution-dyed polyester fabric, Sur Last®, featuring new levels of durability and fade resistance. “CSI is always looking for better ways to do things, which is likewise a key part of Glen Raven culture,” says Kirk Fitzsimmons, Marine & Specialty Products Manager. “We’re tremendously excited about the opportunities that this partnership has created.” Glen Raven specializes in innovative solutions in the awning, marine, furniture, protective, military and geosynthetics markets.
