Global Product Solutions. U.S. Manufacturing Strength

HLJ combines domestic foam and polyester-fiber manufacturing with precision fabrication, global product development, sourcing, direct-import programs, packaging, and fulfillment. Helping leading brands bring quality products to market at scale.

Domestic Manufacturing. Global Capabilities.

HLJ brings together U.S. manufacturing strength and global product development expertise to support customers from concept through final delivery.

With more than 450,000 square feet of U.S. manufacturing and operational capacity, we provide foam and polyester fiber production, precision fabrication, sewing, filling, compression packaging, and fulfillment. Our global sourcing and direct import network expands these capabilities, allowing HLJ to develop the right supply solution for each product, program, and market.

The HLJ Foam Legacy: Heritage, Scale, and American Craftsmanship

Our story began in 1988 as Allied Aerofoam, with a commitment to dependable manufacturing, quality workmanship, and customer service. Today, HLJ combines American craftsmanship with modern technology across its operations in Tennessee and Missouri, producing foam, polyester fiber, fabricated components, protective packaging, and finished consumer products for national brands and major retailers.

In 2020, we became HLJ Foam, reflecting the expansion of our manufacturing capabilities, product categories, and the markets we serve. The 2025 acquisition of Arlee Home Fashions further expanded our product-development, design, sourcing, textile, and home-furnishings capabilities, strengthening our ability to support customers across a broader range of consumer-product categories.

Today, we bring product development, domestic manufacturing, global sourcing, direct-import programs, packaging, and logistics together under one experienced leadership team. This integrated approach gives customers one dependable partner capable of managing complex programs from initial concept through final delivery.
