Our History
BondCote Corporation was founded in 1949 in Pulaski, VA and began fabricating U.S. Army ponchos. In 1952, the company began coating the fabric used in the ponchos along with other specialty coated items. During the past 61 years, we have led our industry providing millions of yards of quality, durable, and lightweight military and industrial fabrics. We have sustained our position by developing new innovative and funtional products. As our company has grown through the years, we have strived to meet industry needs. In the1980’s BondCote was one of the developers of synthetic fabrics that replaced canvas as the primary material for shelters. BondCote was the first to develop a skid resistant flooring product, and in 1997, we developed a new light weight, heat-sealable fabric for military shelters. In 2001, BondCote introduced SpeedRepair (TM) adhesive repair tape, a quick peel and stick patch system for shelter and commercial systems, and in 2008 BondCote released the new flexible lighting system EL-Lighting.
