Elastic Cotton Products

“Elastic Cotton Products are among the hardest hit under the present tariff structure. The specialty products produced by Hamilton Cotton Company and other Canadian mills are being undersold in the Canadian market by the “dumping” tactics of Japanese and U.S. manufacturers. Sarah Liota of Hamilton Cottons illustrates the variety of elastics and webbing which the textile mills normally supply to the clothing and knitting trades.” Photograph by Tom Bochsler

Cloth Inspection

Captioned by the Hamilton Cotton Company: “Cloth Inspection is an important aspect of the quality and workmanship which primary mills such as the Hamilton Cotton Company assure Canadian processors. All yardage is given careful inspection to check quality, and uniformity of the finished cotton cloth. Severe price competition from foreign producers has curtailed production of cotton cloth for industrial, apparel, footwear and other end uses. Photograph by Tom Bochsler
