WHO WE ARE

From its beginnings in 1923 as a business that dyed and processed synthetic yarns for the New England textile industry, Textron has evolved and grown to become one of the world’s leading aerospace & defense companies. Synthetic yarns may have nothing in common with business jets, tiltrotor aircraft and sophisticated technologies, but the thread that runs through our company’s history is innovation. Indeed, it’s been the guiding force behind our success throughout our company’s nearly 100 years in business.
