A MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO & CHAIRMAN
Glen Raven is in the business of making connections—between people, ideas, and our customers. What began as a small, family-owned textile mill is now a global enterprise with a portfolio of leading brands operating in 47 locations across 23 countries and six continents . For 146 years, the business has evolved—but the heart of Glen Raven has never changed.
From the beginning, Glen Raven has never been afraid to reimagine what's possible. In 1958, we invented pantyhose—a creative response to an everyday challenge, grounded in imagination, craftsmanship, and a commitment to getting every detail right. The innovation sparked a revolutionary change in both the fashion industry and our company. Although we no longer manufacture pantyhose, we bring that same commitment to continuous improvement in everything we do at Glen Raven.
Our diverse portfolio of brands serves consumers, partners, and the world, supported by nearly 3,000 associates. In the markets we serve— furnishings, consumer products, protective apparel, window, shade, marine, and beyond —customers trust Glen Raven associates as leaders in their fields. Our portfolio includes flagship brands Sunbrella® and Dickson® , GlenGuard® protective fabrics, and customer services through Trivantage® and Glen Raven Logistics™ that tie it all together.
Whatever the challenge or opportunity, our brands are thoughtfully designed to support you through every moment, adapting to your evolving needs and empowering you to achieve more. We believe doing business should be about making life better for all of us, and that belief drives everything in the pages ahead.
The world is going to keep changing—that’s a constant. What will define the next 146 years for Glen Raven is our commitment to meeting those changes with the same imagination we brought to pantyhose in 1958.
Let’s keep pushing the boundaries of what’s possible together.

OUR PURPOSE
WEAVING CONNECTIONS THAT KEEP THE WORLD SPINNING
At Glen Raven, we orient around a shared purpose: “Weaving Connections That Keep the World Spinning.” This purpose puts people first, enabling us to create moments of connection—between thinking and experience, art and science, people and ideas, individuals and communities. It reminds us of the important role we play in the lives of the people and communities that our products touch every day, making decisions clearer, business more worthwhile, and fueling the culture for our consumers, our customers, our employees, and our business.
To live out our purpose, we follow six guiding principles to influence the decisions we make every day.
OUR PURPOSE
DRIVE TO IMPROVE
OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLES
HEART FOR PEOPLE
We show kindness, we are respectful, and we embrace difference. Even when we disagree, we recognize the humanity of each other, and we trust the good intentions of one another.
“ALL-IN” ON DOING IT RIGHT
We go above and beyond when it is the right thing to do, for our consumers, customers, co-workers, and Glen Raven. We do the right thing for the right reasons, even when no one is watching.
WE
GET AFTER IT
Our unending drive to improve and enthusiasm for solving problems allow us to stay ahead of the changes around us. We protect and nurture the freedom to dream, encourage opportunities to develop, and allow for the lessons that failure may offer.
At Glen Raven, we are self-starters and hard workers. We bring our ideas to the table—and we are not afraid to be advocates, not just associates, when we know those ideas are important.
IT'S NOT ABOUT ME
We are quick to jump in, collaborate, and support one another. While we all want to be involved, we recognize it is about the whole, not any one piece.
WE TAKE THE LONG VIEW
The longevity of Glen Raven is a testament to our focus on the big picture and our priority of achieving long-term value over short-term gains. We are always learning and always looking forward.
WHAT’S NEW
Founded in 1880, Glen Raven hasn’t stopped innovating since.
Our approach is simple: elevate the customer experience by addressing their unmet needs. We see innovation as creative fuel to help our consumers and partners achieve their own ambitious goals.
From deepening our existing portfolio to expanding into new territories, we innovate with purpose—solving real problems, expanding access, pushing boundaries, and helping our customers achieve more than they thought possible.
