Global Textile Alliance’s New American Story Brings Revered Belgian Brands to U.S.
In 2016, Global Textile Alliance Inc. introduced two veteran Belgian upholstery brands, Ter Molst and Symphony Mills, to the U.S. market, operating from facilities in Reidsville, North Carolina.

Both companies are a part of Love Home Fabrics, an international group of interior textile companies with five global hubs headquartered in Belgium. Love Home Fabrics has extended their decades of textile expertise to this new American story four years in the making.
With Ter Molst and Symphony Mills, Global Textile Alliance houses two business models under one roof. Ter Molst’s fabrics are 100% made in the U.S. in a vertically integrated facility that incorporates yarn extrusion, design, production and finishing. Symphony Mills, on the other hand, sells stock-supported collections from an American warehouse and ships them worldwide.
Along with being stock supported, Symphony Mills is known for its extensive color lines, European influence, luxurious woven and warp knit velvets, micro suedes, linens, heavy textures, and competitive pricing.
The target audience of both divisions includes furniture manufacturers, jobbers, fabric retailers, and converters.
