MORRISVILLE, Pa. — Brightsmith Coil Coaters celebrated its five-year anniversary this past year. From its acquisition in 2008, the facility has continued to raise the bar in the industry, paying close attention to quality control in order to maximize customer satisfaction.
During the past five years, Brightsmith has taken large strides in improving operations, from adding high-tech equipment to mastering customer relations. “Our customers are incredibly valued, so we’ll stop at nothing to ensure they walk away with a product that they can trust,” said General Manager Frank Coffey. Upgrades in equipment have provided ample value to, not only to the company, but most importantly, to the customers. A splicing unit for laminates was added to the production line in 2012. It replaces splicing that was done by hand and accommodates polypropylene and polyester films that are 0.5-mil to 8-mils thick. This process has significantly decreased material waste and improved timing and efficiency.
