ACS Industries, Inc.

At ACS Industries, we are the world leader in engineered knitted wire mesh solutions. We were founded as American Copper Sponge in Rhode Island, USA in 1939, where we manufactured knitted copper sponges. Seven years later, we introduced our first knitted wire mesh air and grease filters. As a result of the heavy growth in the knitted wire mesh business unit, management changed American Copper Sponge to ACS Industries, Inc. in 1960. Since the 1970s, we expanded our production into automotive exhaust products, and introduced our first knitted wire mesh support systems. Today, we are the world’s largest vertically integrated knitted wire mesh manufacturer. Additionally, we are a key global supplier of pyrotechnic airbag inflator filters and exhaust systems components to both Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Tier 1 suppliers. Furthermore, we are a global supplier to both the foodservice and janitorial industries.
