American Textile Manufacturers Institute
The American Textile Manufacturers Institute (ATMI) is a national trade association for
the domestic textile industry. ATMI member companies operate in more that 30 states and
account for approximately 80 percent of all textile fibers consumed by mills in the U.S.
ATMI launched the Encouraging Environmental Excellence (E3) program in 1992 to
encourage environmental preservation. Participants in the E3 program must meet 10
criteria, ranging from having a corporate policy in support of the environment and
detailed environmental audits of their facilities to the development of employee education
and community outreach programs.
