American Cotton Products manufactures the core cotton rags and towels East Tennessee supply houses need — better quality, lower prices, and direct access to 50 years of experience.
A Knoxville-area manufacturer serving supply houses within about 100 miles — not a distant corporate supplier.
Core rags and towels sorted, cut, and inspected for usable, repeatable quality order after order.
A focused local operation on the products you reorder — without big out-of-state markup.
Direct, accountable service from an owner who knows how to keep industrial buyers supplied and happy.
About twenty core products — the essentials most industrial users need again and again. Focused depth and consistency, not a sprawling janitorial catalog.
Cotton for protection, covering, and specialty material needs.
View DetailsEvery order is sorted, cut, inspected, and baled the same way — so the rags you reorder show up consistent, clean, and ready for the job.
Textiles are sorted by color and material quality.
Material is cut to size and checked for cleanliness and usable condition.
Finished wiping material is baled for efficiency and prepared for shipment.
You already sell these products. The question is who you buy them from. Here's how a local manufacturer compares to the large out-of-state rag companies most buyers default to.
These are the jobs your customers use our rags for every day — the repeat demand a local, well-stocked manufacturer helps you serve without out-of-state lead times.
Beyond bulk, we make packaged, shelf-ready wiping products for auto-parts stores and similar retailers — a resale line you can stock without adding product risk.
Leonard built and sold a rag company in 1996 to one of the largest in the country. Working inside it, he grew tired of the quality customers received and the prices they paid. American Cotton Products is his answer: make the products people actually reorder, make them better, price them fairly, and take care of the buyer.
"We make rags that people use and order over and over again."
