 PROFILE
SI Corporation, formerly Synthetic Industries, wants you to walk all over it. The diversified textiles producer is a leading maker of carpet backing. It also makes construction and civil engineering products (concrete-reinforcement fibers) and environmental products (erosion-control textiles and landfill liners). Additionally, SI produces technical textiles including liquid- and air-filtration products and professional landscaping products such as shade and ground cover. Founded in 1967 as a supplier of sand bags for the Vietnam War, the company today operates eight plants in Georgia, Illinois, South Carolina, and Tennessee. Global investment group Investcorp acquired the company in 1999.
