But there’s much more to the story—and that’s what takes
place behind the scenes in our vital, vibrant working mill itself, one of very
few left in the United States or in the world. Langhorne’s floor, filled with machines,
some that have served us for decades, some that we’ve recently invested in.
They are our machines, and they are machines we often fix ourselves.
Jerry Bell and Mark Wolf are two such fixers. Through the
years, the machinists have spent decades learning the ins and outs of each
loom, each part, each replacement part. Workers like Jerry and Mark have more
than skills. They have an encyclopedic knowledge of how Langhorne runs that
makes them absolutely essential to our operation.

Added Mark, “We are big, yet small. We create these
incredible pieces that go all over the world. We’ve made carpets for the Pope
and for ambassadors. And still, we’re a close-knit family. People matter here,
and it shows in everything we do.”
