The combined strengths, capabilities and overall footprint of the two companies provide a positive outlook for increased market competitiveness and growth opportunities as well, company officials said.

VPC’s nonwoven businesses now operate under its Fybon umbrella in Canada. In the coming months, VPC will use this opportunity to consolidate the identity of its expanded nonwoven business under the Fibrix banner. The combined name will solidify the identity of the two companies, offering one brand across North America.

Current chief operating officer and partner of Fibrix, Dean Cobb, will continue to serve as president of Fibrix USA, while remaining a minority shareholder in the company.
