Baltex are specialist Warp-Knitters and Weft-Knitters, founded in 1831 by two brothers William and Francis Ball in Ilkeston, Derbyshire. They developed new fabrics and registered Patents before winning a Gold Medal for innovation at the Great Exhibition of 1851.

Since that time Baltex has continued this pattern of innovation. We have developed the skills, used to produce Pure Silk fabrics, to process and knit some of the worlds most technical fibres.
