Crescent Textile Solutions

About Crescent Textile Solutions

Crescent Textile Solutions operates from Two Rivers, Wisconsin, on the western shore of Lake Michigan. The business traces its roots to 1923 when Archibald and Theodore Webster, sons of William Walter Webster, acquired an existing knitting mill and renamed it Crescent Woolen Mills. The Webster family’s textile lineage begins earlier, with Matthew Webster emigrating from England in 1855 and establishing woolen mills in Minnesota. Today the company is a family‑owned, third‑generation operation that became an independent business unit of Miller Waste Mills, Inc. in 2017. The company manufactures custom yarn, roving, batting, and knitted fabric using a ring‑spun system that includes blending, carding, spinning, winding, doubling, and twisting. It processes both natural fibers — such as wool, Merino, alpaca, angora, bison, camel, cashmere, llama, mohair, bamboo, and silk — and synthetics including nylon, polyester, acrylic, Nomex®, Kevlar®, and Kanecaron® modacrylic. Crescent also offers turnkey and commission fiber‑processing services, as well as scouring of raw wool at a dedicated plant in Texas, and emphasizes large‑volume production capacity. Its customers span safety, apparel, and sporting‑goods brands, along with industrial users needing thermal insulation, cushioning, or composite‑manufacturing feedstock. The firm is Berry Amendment and USMCA compliant, serving defense and government contracts, and its technical staff collaborates on research and development projects to develop new fiber blends. Crescent positions itself on a heritage of craftsmanship combined with innovative blend development, highlighting long‑term customer relationships and a technical team that participates directly in clients’ R&D efforts to recommend materials and optimize performance.
