Heavy-Duty Industrial Sewing

Our industrial sewing capabilities are the cornerstone of what sets Goodwin‑Cole apart. We operate a fully equipped commercial-grade sewing facility with the machinery, materials, and know-how to produce precision-engineered fabric products built to last. This includes walking-foot machines for thick, layered fabrics, double-needle lockstitch machines for long seam runs, and specialized equipment for edge binding, topstitching, and attaching hardware. Every stitch is intentional and reinforced for strength, giving our covers a level of durability and detail not found in mass-produced alternatives.

What truly defines our sewing operation is our skilled team of technicians—many with decades of experience in industrial and specialty fabric work. Whether we're sewing flexible vinyl, stiff canvas, or multi-material assemblies, we apply consistent quality control throughout the production process. We can accommodate oversized formats, odd shapes, high-wear zones, and technical fabrics—all while ensuring a clean, professional finish. When you need a cover that won’t fail, our sewing team ensures it’s stitched to endure.

Custom Design & Fabrication

Goodwin‑Cole specializes in transforming your needs into high-performance, made-to-order solutions. Our custom design process starts with a conversation—whether you're replacing an aging piece of equipment covering or starting fresh with a new enclosure or industrial application. From there, our experienced design team evaluates your goals, environment, and functional requirements, using CAD software and CNC cutting technology to draft precise patterns and ensure repeatable accuracy across projects of any size.

From single prototypes to high-volume production, our team can handle it all. We account for complex geometries, cutouts for access panels or vents, reinforcement zones, and any custom hardware integrations. Need branding, color-matching, or modular construction? We’ve got it covered. With over a century of fabrication knowledge, Goodwin‑Cole ensures that every piece we produce functions exactly as needed—fitting right the first time, performing consistently, and meeting the demands of even the toughest operational settings.

Materials & Durability

When it comes to commercial applications, material selection isn’t just about appearance—it’s about performance, safety, and longevity. Goodwin‑Cole offers a wide variety of high-performance textiles engineered for specific demands, including vinyl-coated polyester for waterproof durability, solution-dyed acrylics for outdoor fade resistance, and industrial-grade canvas for breathable strength. Each fabric type is carefully chosen based on your environment, application, and exposure to the elements. Whether your cover is facing full sun, regular washdowns, or heavy industrial use, we select materials that stand up to daily stress while maintaining their form and function.

Beyond basic durability, we also offer specialty materials designed to meet precise regulatory or environmental requirements. These include fire-retardant coatings for safety-sensitive locations, UV-blocking fabrics for long-term sun exposure, anti-microbial options for foodservice or medical environments, and even chemical-resistant fabrics for use in industrial or manufacturing settings. No matter your use case, we ensure the final product delivers the right combination of strength, flexibility, and protection to meet your commercial or industrial needs.
