Stork Prints and Shandong Tongda Nickel Screen form Joint Venture for the Chinese textile printing industry

The joint venture consolidates a strong position in the growing textile rotary screen printing market in China for both companies.

In the new partnership, named Shandong Tongda Printing Systems, Tongda’s current organization and operation will form the backbone of the joint venture. To cater to the increasing demand from Chinese customers for fail safe and higher mesh count nickel screens, Stork Prints will support Tongda with the upgrade of its technology and facilities, and act as a sales and service hub for the joint venture out of Wuxi. Mr. Dick Joustra, CEO of Stork Prints states: “Throughout the textile industry, the performance of our rotary screens enables textile printers to improve their quality. The collaboration with Tongda is a key step for achieving our plans in China and other developing markets in Asia.”
