DM&E was founded in 1975 as a manufacturer’s representative for companies that repaired and rebuilt machinery for local fiber producers and textile mills in and around Shelby, North Carolina. The company then established its own manufacturing facility to better control quality and delivery in 1976. Four and a half decades later, DM&E is the premier developer and machinery manufacturer in the fiber industry. With an innovative and modern manufacturing facility and a staff of expert engineers, DM&E has developed a reputation for solving problems with improved engineered components within and without the synthetic fiber industry.
