Precision Polymer Engineering (PPE), the manufacturer of high performance molded elastomer seals, has announced the official opening of its new manufacturing facility in Brenham, Texas. The new site, which commenced production in November 2014, manufactures high performance compression molded components for the oil and gas industry as well as critical components for semiconductor and heavy equipment applications.
Located near Houston, the hub of the American oil & gas industry and the Californian semiconductor manufacturing base, the new 30,000sq.ft site complements PPE’s existing manufacturing facility in the UK and will include its own tool making, extrusion and inspection departments in line with PPE’s flexible operating model. PPE’s existing delivery record is already outstanding with some of the quickest lead times in the industry and now the opening of the Brenham facility will significantly boost PPE’s production capabilities.
