TenCate Protective Fabrics has signed an agreement with Samil Spinning Co Ltd in Seoul, Korea, to become a TenCate Defender M partner. The agreement aims to expand the TenCate Defender M product portfolio in the South Korean military and police market.
Samil is currently providing non-FR fabrics to the South Korean military and there is high interest in expanding their offering to include TenCate Defender M with its inherently FR properties and reputation as the FR choice for military applications.
Samil has spinning operations as well as dyeing and finishing facilities and will, in some cases, license manufacture fabric from start to finish in South Korea. Samil will focus on the manufacture, sales and marketing of TenCate Defender M in the South Korean market. TenCate Defender M manufactured in South Korea will be sold and used there and will not reach the US market.
TenCate said that Samil, an established partner with Lenzing Fibers, is well positioned to make TenCate Defender M with Lenzing FR fiber as its primary component and the alliance is a valuable opportunity for growth in the South Korean market.
