US manufacturer of super-thin, high-performance, waterproof-breathable barrier films Omniflex, LLC, has established new sales offices in Shanghai, Hong Kong and Taipei. 

According to the company, opening sales offices in the region will allow the company to provide increased service to existing customers, as well as a more familiar contact and service point for potential new customers. This move will also help assure the most efficient interaction between Omniflex and Asian film/textile laminators, converters, fabricators and OEMs, resulting in the best performing apparel, footwear and medical products possible, whether the customer is a Pacific-rim firm or a US company that manufactures in the Far East.

Omniflex already has significant business in Asia for its polyurethane, copolyester and ether-amide waterproof-breathable barrier films. The company markets them to the worldwide apparel, footwear and medical products markets under the Transport and Vacuflex brand names. It is also the global sales agent for DuPont Active Layer technology.
