ADO History

ADO Corporation was established in Spartanburg, South Carolina by Mr. Hubert Wulf in 1979. Over twenty-five years later and several expansions, ADO Corporation remains a leader in high quality fabric and draperies throughout the United States and Canada

During a worldwide recession in 1954, Hubert Wulf and his wife, Marianne, established ADO Gardinenwerke in the small, northern rural town of Aschendorf, Germany. ADO Gardinenwerke succeeded in part due to the Wulfs’ unparalleled vision and innovative ideas; however, the most important factor was ADO’s technical superiority and faithfulness to maintain high quality manufacturing of 118 inch seamless drapery fabrics and accessories.

Upon the success of ADO Gardinenwerke, Mr. Wulf envisioned an expansion across the Atlantic Ocean. Rather than merely importing the finest seamless fabrics to the United States, he dedicated himself to importing the technology and knowledge of manufacturing the best seamless fabrics and draperies. Thus, ADO Corporation was born.

Mr. Wulf’s vision of success continued until his death in 1989. Currently both sons of Mr. Wulf manage ADO International. With Klaus’ and Andreas’ innovative ideas, dedication and support, ADO Corporation is poised to meet the future and continue to provide all our Partners with unlimited opportunities and success.
