a warm welcome!

we are barnet and this is
what we do.

FIBERS, POLYMERS, YARNS, RECYCLING and DEVELOPMENT of individual solutions – the range of activities we undertake to meet the needs of the market and our customers is very broad. With over 125 years of expertise and a product portfolio that is second to none, we are the right partner for thousands of customers worldwide. In every market, our product range extends from industrial quality to specialty / high-tech products. We manufacture and supply in many different resins, including polyester, polyamide 6, polyamide 6.6, acrylic, polypropylene and viscose.

Since the foundation by William Barnet II in 1898, Barnet has traditionally been a classic trading company with a global network that has grown over decades. During this period, Barnet has continuously expanded its activities and markets, and gradually developed into a manufacturing company.
Today, we are producing shortcut and staple fibers but also recycled high-performance fibers and the patented anti-static yarn nega-stat®. The traditional trading of various fibers as well as industrial, textile and technical yarns is still a central part of Barnet‘s business activities.

Over the years, the job profile of our sales staff has also changed. While our main activity used to be almost exclusively the buying and selling of fibers, polymers and yarns, technical matters have increasingly come into focus. Today, we closely accompany our customers in the development process of new products if required.

With constant in-house quality controls, material testing and close cooperation with research institutes in the textile sector, we are able to offer reliable products and services. This can range from supplying standard, customized or redefined specialties for high-end textile applications to being your partner for innovative developments.

Continuous development of the portfolio makes Barnet a reliable and flexible partner to this day; always focusing on the needs of the world markets.

SUSTAINABILITY

recycling is in our DNA

Sustainability is primarily defined by Barnet as reducing the amount of raw material residues that end up in our landfills, pollute air and water or increase our dependence on fossil fuels. Post Consumer Waste and Post Industrial Waste such as by-products from fibers, yarns and the polymer industry are getting a second life by redefining their usability.

Barnet´s history began with the recycling of production waste from the wool industry, thus designing a sustainable and still relevant business model at a time when the word „recycling“ did not yet exist.
