Avgol America, an Israeli maker of specialty fabrics, is expanding its operations in Mocksville, North Carolina, the Winston-Salem Journal reports. The company, which produces nonwoven fabrics for diaper manufacturers, will create 42 jobs.

"Our strategy is to continue to grow our business in our largest market here in the USA," said Ronnie Batchler, COO for Avgol Nonwoven Industries.
