Precision Custom Coatings Partners With Asian Textile Manufacturer

Totowa, NJ - Precision Custom Coatings LLC (PCC), a US-based producer and supplier of non-woven and coated fabrics for the apparel industry and industrial market applications, recently announced the signing of a joint venture agreement with Ningbo Yihua Textile Factory, an Asian textile manufacturer.

The new venture, PCC Ningbo Textile Co., Ltd., officially translated as Ningbo Mei-Yi Textile Co., Ltd., will provide Precision Custom Coatings with expanded apparel interlining production capabilities, a further enhanced product line, and augment its ability to offer localized relationships with apparel manufacturers throughout Asia.

The partnership will also offer Ningbo Yihua Textile Factory, a major shareholder in Ningbo Yak Technology Industrial Co., Ltd. (Shenzen stock market code 002036), added exposure outside of China via Precision Custom Coatings' broad universe of sales and distribution channels throughout the world. Operations for the new joint venture will be conducted from a PCC Ningbo Textile Co., Ltd.-dedicated facility in Ningbo, China.

"As one of few interlining manufacturers based in the United States, Precision Custom Coatings is continuing its growth within an otherwise contracting industry by further securing our foothold within the Asian market," said Scott Tesser, President of Precision Custom Coatings.

"This new joint venture will provide our customers with the benefits of local production while maintaining the product quality that PCC is known for," said Dennis Liu, Sales Manager for PCC Asia LLC. "Our alliance positions PCC to respond more rapidly to our customers' needs, furthering our aggressive drive to be a market leader in quality, innovation, and customer service."
