Coats plc
Coats plc is a British multi-national company. It is the world's largest manufacturer and distributor of sewing thread and supplies, and the second-largest manufacturer of zips and fasteners, after YKK. Since 2003 it has been wholly owned by Guinness Peat, which in 2015 changed its name to Coats Group plc.
==History==
In 1755 James and Patrick Clark began a loom equipment and silk thread business in Paisley, Scotland.〔(Coats history )〕 In 1806 Patrick Clark invented a way of twisting cotton threads together to substitute for silk threads which were unavailable due to France's blockade of Great Britain and opened the first plant for manufacturing the cotton thread in 1812.〔(Coats & Clark history )〕 In 1864 the Clark family began manufacturing in Newark, New Jersey, U.S. as the Clark Thread Co.〔
In 1802 James Coats set up a weaving business, also in Paisley. In 1826 he opened a cotton mill at Ferguslie to produce his own thread〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url =http://www.archiveshub.ac.uk/news/02120302.html )〕 and, when he retired in 1830, his sons, James & Peter, took up the business under the name of J. & P. Coats.〔 The firm expanded internationally, particularly to the USA. In 1890 Coats listed on the London Stock Exchange,〔 with a capital base of £5.7M.〔
In 1952 J. & P. Coats and the Clark Thread Co. merged.〔 In 1961 a merger with Patons and Baldwins created Coats Patons.〔 In 1986 a merger with Vantona Viyella created Coats Viyella.〔 In 2003 the Guinness Peat Group plc took Coats Ltd private and it is now registered as "Coats plc".〔
