Corporate Profile

Strategically located in Longkou City of Shandong Province, Sino Techfibre Limited is a leading producer of polyurethane (PU) synthetic leather products, microfibre synthetic leather products, and pattern moulding paper ("PMP") in the PRC.

Our products are marketed under our proprietary "Jinfeng" ( 金锋 ) brand name. As a testimony to the popularity of our brand, we have over the years received numerous awards and accolades, including the "Shandong Famous Brand" award ( 山东名牌产品 ) in 2005, and more recently, two national awards namely, "No. 1 Leather Brand of China" ( 中国皮革第一品牌 ) and "Famous Brand of China" ( 中国驰名品牌 ), both jointly awarded by the China Brand Union Association ( 品牌中国产业联合会 ), the China Expert Guidance Committee for Brand Strategy ( 中国品牌战略专家指导委员会 ), and the China Industrial International United Association ( 中国工业合作协会 ).

The Group’s synthetic leather products are sold to manufacturers and trading companies that produce fashion apparel, sports apparel and equipment, luggage and travel accessories, as well as upholstery furnishings for furniture and automobile interiors. Our major customer, the People’s Liberation Army and the government sector, accounted for approximately 22.3% of total revenue in FY2009.

To ensure the competitiveness of our products, the Group places strong emphasis on continued product development and technology improvement. We have established cooperative relationships with third party research institutes such as Qingdao University’s Textile Product Development Centre, College of Textiles and Clothing ( 青岛大学纺织服装学院 ) for the development of new PU synthetic leather for clothing apparel, and the China Textile Academy ( 中国纺织科学研究院 ) for the development of materials for raincoats, multipurpose apparel, belts and shoes.

Underscoring our close relationship with the PLA, the Group, in July 2004, jointly set up the Technology Research and Development Centre for Military Product Supplies of Synthetic Leather of the General Logistics Department of PLA ( 中国人民解放军总后合成革军需产品技术研发中心 ) with the PLA’s General Logistics Department, to develop materials for uses such as protective clothing and hygienic suits.

In addition, Sino Techfibre is one of the designated uniform material production companies for the Naval Armament Research Institute ( 海军装备研究所 ), the State Administration of Taxation ( 国家税务总局 ) and the State Administration for Industry and Commerce ( 国家工商行政管理总局 ). We are currently collaborating with a research department of a government sector in the PRC to develop new PU and microfibre synthetic leather products for use in protective armour for the Armed Forces.
