The Jones Family of Companies, a leading provider of nonwoven manufacturing products for over 86 years, has announced strategic leadership changes related to its involvement in the industry. The company’s board of directors has elected Ralph Jones III, formerly the Executive Chairman, to assume the role of Chairman & CEO. Scott Butler has been promoted to President, leading the management team for Jones manufacturing and distribution operations. John French, CFO, joins the company’s senior leadership team.
As the company begins its 87th year in the industry, Jones is expanding its commitment to sustainability by transitioning to a broad-line distribution model and increasing its focus on plant fiber-based products for the floorcare and other markets. This includes the curtailment of operations in the last spinning facility located in Humboldt. The Jones’ line of mop yarn products will continue to focus on quality, dependable performance, and value while offering renewed superior service with sustained stocking inventory.
“We are excited to expand our commitment to sustainability and continue to serve the floorcare market with our high-quality products,” says Ralph Jones III, Chairman & CEO of Jones Family of Companies. “We also have a tremendous opportunity to further establish ourselves as a textile industry leader, especially as sustainability becomes a larger priority for businesses.”
