Explore award-winning materials, innovative fabric designs and high-performance webbing designs for aerospace, medical, safety, and commercial applications
Bally Ribbon Mills (BRM) will showcase its high-quality, high-performance webbing designs at the Advanced Textiles Expo 2025. This event takes place November 5–7, 2025, in Indianapolis, Indiana. At booth E1600, BRM experts will be available to discuss the company’s award-winning materials, tapes, webbings, and specialty textiles. This includes high-performance webbings, E-WEBBINGS®, and other narrow fabrics featuring the latest in advanced fiber technologies.
This year, BRM will proudly feature Kevlar® EXO™, a next-generation aramid fiber that redefines performance and comfort for demanding applications. The company has incorporated this revolutionary material into its narrow fabrics to enhance strength-to-weight ratio and deliver superior performance in defense, deep space, and parachute systems.
BRM’s fabrics feature custom weave designs and high-performance fibers or fiber combinations. BRM creates these patterns for specific end-use applications, and are also customizable for various industries. These industries include aerospace, medical, safety, and commercial sectors. The technology and capabilities are also adaptable for new applications.
E-WEBBINGS®
Among the materials to be shown are E-WEBBINGS®. These woven fabrics combine traditional fibers with functional elements such as conductivity, light transmission, and sensors
These narrow woven fabrics integrate embedded electronic components for power and data transmission. BRM can tailor these to meet specific structural and conductive requirements. BRM’s exhibit will also feature composites. These fabrics combine multiple unique fibers to leverage each component’s distinct properties. These multi-fiber fabrics are engineered for optimal performance in aerospace, defense, and industrial applications.
Tapes and Webbing
Tapes and Webbing with Superior Properties such as high strength-to-weight ratio, abrasion resistance, and low elongation will be on display. Additionally, BRM will highlight its Materials on Planet Mars, which includes engineered fibers and fabrics used by NASA, ESA, and commercial contractors for near and deep space applications. This includes the 3D Orthogonally woven 3DMAT Quartz Material developed for the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) compression pads, named the 2023 NASA Government Invention of the Year.
High-Performance Textile Innovation
BRM continues to push the boundaries of textile innovation by designing custom weaves and combining high-performance fibers tailored to specific end-use needs. Whether developing standard solutions or one-of-a-kind textiles, the BRM team collaborates closely with customers to meet the most challenging requirements.
