Commercial Fabrics is a Seattle based, second generation family business founded in 1975. Duane Ruud opened CFM after a long career in the canvas industry and quickly became one of the largest domestic suppliers to the water ski industry. Thirty-three years later, Tim Ruud has evolved CFM into a major supplier to the medical, prison, law enforcement, and marine trades.
