Chicopee

The Chicopee company was originally born in 1823, starting life in cotton production. In 1916 it started supply of nonwoven bandages due to the first world war.From these humble beginnings the company transformed over time into an established brand owned by several multinational organisations. In the 1940’s we formed our first Research and Development centre, the first of its kind for the industry. Then in the 1970s with the invention of the J-Cloth® Chicopee changed the way people used cloths and wipes in the kitchen. This step into the heart of the home with nonwovens created a strong association between Chicopee and the foodservice market. From here the brand has become known for innovative high quality wiping solutions across multiple segments such as Automotive, Foodservice, Healthcare, Industry and Building Care.
