When commissioned W&T’s Padstow facility will offer its customers, both standard and specialised products comparable to the world’s best, all this from an Australian NATA Accredited Manufacturer.

Mr Tom Fleming comments;

‘This investment now positions our organization as the leading NATA accredited manufacturer of narrow fabrics, braids and cords in Australasia. It reinforces our ongoing commitment to this business, our customers and to the region. We have developed innovative manufacturing processes and products that are unique to W&T and to the industry, which has enabled us to win business ahead of competition in South East Asia.
