Buffalo has been “green” since before the term was coined.
Recycling and sustainability are the base upon which our business was founded. Since 1929, we’ve been producing quality recycled and new cloth rags for the Paint, Industrial, MRO and Marine markets. Our company helps to keep millions of pounds of textiles out of the waste stream every year.
At Buffalo, we continue to make investments in our future to ensure that our product offerings, customer service, sales staff and warehousing are cutting edge. We have manufacturing and distribution centers near Seattle and in Houston, uniquely positioning us to service the entire country quickly and cost-effectively.
For further assistance, please contact customer service: 800-683-0052. Now, more than ever, we truly are “your partner for cleaning and maintenance products.”™
We moved to a new location in March 2018.
After nearly 90 years in our historic location, Buffalo Industries moved to Kent, Washington, just miles south of our former facility in Seattle. We acquired Specialty Wipers Inc. and have modernized their centrally-located facility to better serve our customers.

Historic Seattle location at 1st and Spokane. 1929-2018
Approximately 3 pounds of CO2 and 1400 gallons of water are saved for every pound of clothing that is spared from disposal.
In our warehouses we store many of the rags in bales as large as 1000 pounds as they await packaging and final order preparation.
After sorting and packaging, our products are palleted and shrink-wrapped, ready for shipment from our warehouses.
