Draper Knitting is a 6th generation family run organization based in Canton, Massachusetts where it was incorporated in 1856. Steeped in tradition with hundreds of years of experience throughout our production team, Draper attributes their continued success to their ability to balance the traditional values of a family business with the forward thinking design and development that they offer to customers big and small.
The mill offers a unique blend of old and new machinery, old and new processes and innovation. They pride ourselves on still offering three types of fabric formations and endless blends of fibers for the simplest of applications to the most complex blends that help save lives.
Their corporate headquarters house the corporate offices as well as a 120,000 square foot manufacturing facility in the heart of Massachusetts. This facility includes over 40 knitting machines that can knit an unlimited amount of fabric design options, CAD capabilities, their own dye house and extensive finishing capabilities.
