About Albany International

Albany International is a global advanced textiles and materials processing company with two core businesses: Machine Clothing which is the world's leading producer of custom-designed fabrics and belts essential to production in the paper, nonwovens, and other process industries; Albany Engineered Composites which is a rapidly growing supplier of highly engineered composite parts for the aerospace industry.

Albany Engineered Composites, Inc. (AEC) designs, develops, and manufactures advanced composite components. Our core strength is our ability to produce highly tailored, complex composite parts, with a focus on AEC's unique 3D reinforced composite technology. Our products often enable our customers to use lightweight, high-performance composites in applications where they previously have been unable to because of complex performance or geometry needs. For example, we help customers in aerospace and transportation replace heavier metallic components with highly durable, lightweight composite components to reduce weight and improve fuel efficiency. AEC manufactured composite fan blades and cases are used exclusively in CFM LEAP engines which power the Boeing 737 and Airbus A320neo aircraft. There are also over 200 AEC manufactured parts across all variants of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. Please visit www.albint.com/aec to learn more about AEC products and technologies.
