Since 1976, we have been a national leader in the development of cellulose fiber applications, manufacturing high-performance, reliable, and eco-friendly cellulose industrial fiber products. We prioritized being green before green was the thing to be, because our mindset has always been to reuse our resources and reduce our footprint, from production to installation and everywhere in between. After building our own waste paper converting system in 2001, we paved the way for other manufacturers to join us in creating and installing more eco-friendly insulation materials.
Started in 1988, AFT began in system design, fabrication, and installation of manufacturing solutions to convert recycled wastepaper to various end products. In 2001 we established a company owned 22,500 sf fiber manufacturing facility in Bucyrus, Ohio. Since, multiple expansions have grown to 61,500 sf. In addition, a 30,000 sf off site warehouse was acquired to supplement leased warehousing space. We produce cellulose insulation as well as specialty fibers for industrial applications such as roof coatings, structural steel fire proofing, sealants, etc.
Advanced Fiber Technology of Bucyrus, Ohio, is one of the leading manufacturers of cellulose insulation, with markets spanning across the globe. Because choosing insulation is often a decision that lasts a lifetime, there are many factors to consider when shopping around, like performance, safety and the overall environmental impact of its production and installation. From production to installation, cellulose insulation is smart for builders and homeowners! RESPECTING OUR RESOURCES: made with the highest recycled content, cellulose itself is recycled for reuse during the installation process.
