Founded
in 1968, the Stuart C. Hurlbert & Co. Inc., quickly became known
as a reliable supplier of Jute filler yarns for flexible power cords
and cables. The wire and cable industry is still the largest market
for the Hurlbert company, but the product line has expanded to cover:
Jute, paper and polypropylene fillers, tissue separator paper, natural
and synthetic serving and braider yarns, and most recently, a complete
line of plain and stainless steel extruder screens.
Cotton,
polyester and nylon thread, both braided and twisted constructions,
are supplied to shoe manufacturers, the embalming trade, craft workers
and other users of heavy, durable lockstitch thread and bobbins.
Manufacturers
of braided packings for fluid sealing use Stuart C. Hurlbert &
Company's FLAX roving. FLAX (linen) yarns are utilized by hand weavers
as well as upholstery and drapery manufacturers.
The
Hurlbert Company represents Sidlaw Trading of Scotland in North
America, supplying their high-quality JUTE yarns to weavers of Wilton
and Axminster carpets.
Rug
hookers across the country use Hurlbert's woven FLAX and JUTE fabrics
as the backing for their hand-hooked rugs.
Pool
and billiard players appreciate the excellent feel and luxurious
appearance of the Hurlbert Irish Linen pool cue wrap.
