Transtex expands manufacturing capacity

July 11, 2024
Acquisition of U.S. Liner Company integrates the production of fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites for commercial vehicles in Transtex’s truck/trailer equipment supply chain

Transtex recently acquired U.S. Liner Company, a manufacturer of fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites widely used as protective or structural components in commercial transportation and vehicles.

Headquartered in Harmony, Pennsylvania, U.S. Liner produces light, strong, and affordable composite materials through a continuous process, setting industry standards for resistance to corrosion and mildew, Transtex reported.

“Our recent acquisitions have strategically expanded Transtex’s market presence, with U.S. Liner now integrating as a leading manufacturer within our supply chain,” Mathieu Desjardins, Transtex president, said in a news release. “By leveraging Transtex’s advanced manufacturing expertise and through collaboration between our R&D and commercial teams, our aim is to improve quality, focus on product development, and drive sustainable growth across all sectors of activities.”

The acquisition expands Transtex’s manufacturing capacity in North America and also secures a source of high-quality composite materials that are essential to the company’s line of products for trucks and trailers.

“Transtex’s investment marks a transformative phase for our customers, aligning us with a leader in innovative manufacturing and best practices,” said Michael Mantia, U.S. Liner vice president of engineering and quality control.

“We trust their leadership’s commitment to enhancing quality, ensuring consistent delivery of service, and supporting our market expansion.”
