2025 Year in Review & 2026 Outlook
As we close the doors on 2025, we look back at a year defined by bold expansion and relentless ingenuity. At E Squared (e2), growth is not just measured by revenue, but by the increasing complexity of the problems we solve for our partners. This past year, we successfully scaled our operations, products, and physical footprint to ensure we remain the most agile and innovative provider in the coated fabrics industry.
Innovation That Protects: 2025 Product Highlights
Our R&D team continues to push the boundaries of polymer science. The introduction of several innovative products in 2025 has already begun to reshape industry standards:
The Mirage Geomembrane: Specifically engineered for potable water reservoirs, Mirage addresses the critical need for longevity in harsh environments. By combining industry-leading chlorine resistance with high surface reflectivity and enhanced UV/oxidation resistance, we’ve created a liner that prevents micro-cracking and maintains structural integrity during complex fabrication and folding.
Sound Safe Acoustic Barrier ULC: Recognizing a gap in the market for high-performance safety materials, we launched this barrier to provide a rare combination of superior acoustic dampening and rigorous fire safety compliance.
The momentum won’t stop here. Our product development pipeline is full, with several major launches scheduled for Spring 2026. We invite you to explore our Innovation Section or reach out to a Market Specialist to see how these new materials can enhance your next project.
A Foundation for Excellence: Facilities & Quality
To keep pace with demand, our infrastructure underwent a massive transformation this year.
Hillside, NJ Expansion: We added 15,000 square feet to our flagship facility, providing the necessary floor space for state-of-the-art production equipment and streamlined logistics.
Technical & Analytical Upgrades: We invested heavily in our laboratory, adding advanced analytical equipment that allows for real-time testing and faster iteration in product development.
ISO 9001 Certification: Quality is our North Star. After completing the “lion’s share” of the rigorous documentation and procedural work in 2025, we are proud to announce we will officially receive our ISO 9001 certification in Q1 2026, reinforcing our commitment to global manufacturing standards.
Advocacy, Presence, and the “American-Made” Mission
In 2025, our team completed a “baker’s dozen” of industry events, spanning 13 trade shows and conferences. From mainstay events like WEFTEC, AWWA, and GeoFrontiers to niche forums like NoiseCon and IBEX, these shows allow us to keep our finger on the pulse of the industry.
Beyond sales, we are active in the halls of government. Working alongside GMA and NASSCO, we are engaging with the new administration in D.C. to be a vocal advocate for the domestic textile industry. We continue to “Fight! Fight! Fight!” to protect and expand the Berry Amendment, the Kissell Amendment, and the Build America, Buy America Act (BABAA), ensuring that American infrastructure is built with American-engineered excellence.
The Digital Frontier: AI and Education
As the “tidal wave” of AI hits every industry, E Squared is surfing the crest. We are currently integrating AI-driven tools to optimize our product development cycles and enhance our customer service response times. Throughout 2026, you will notice a more personalized and efficient experience when interacting with our brand.
We are also doubling down on Customer Empowerment. Our 2026 roadmap includes:
Educational Video Series: Launching in Q1, we will provide expert heat-welding videos and comprehensive training guides to help your fabrication teams achieve maximum efficiency.
The Enhanced e2 Blog: We are moving beyond simple product updates. Our new blog series will focus on deep-dive problem-solving, offering solution-based articles for the most common (and uncommon) challenges in the field.
Investing in People
A company is only as strong as its team. This year, we significantly bolstered our human capital to ensure our partners receive unparalleled support. We are proud to have welcomed Sean O’Shea (Sr. Market Manager), Jack Clarkin (Inside Sales), Yash Patil (Technical Sales), and Jalynn Clark (Customer Service) to the E Squared family.
The Journey Ahead
We invite you to join us in 2026 as we continue to pioneer the highest-performing technical textiles available. Whether the application is here on Earth—or eventually on Mars—E Squared is ready to lead the way.
Let’s make 2026 our best year yet!
