US-based producer of temperature regulating technology Outlast Technologies has launched a new Supplier Certification portal, powered by TEXbase, designed to facilitate fast and easy communication between Outlast’s internal labs and supply chain partners around the globe.

Commenting on the launch Greg Roda, chief operating officer, stated, “Today’s textile marketplace is largely driven by innovation and speed to market. The extent to which Outlast can improve communication and collaboration throughout our supply chain directly effects time-to-market and ultimately the purchasing decisions of our downstream customers,” adding, “With over fifty supply chain partners around the globe and new product introductions every year, our certification process needed to be reworked.”

TEXbase builds and deploys easy to implement web-based, textile data management applications that streamline business processes and are said to deliver a strong return on investment.
