1 Outsource Converting & Manufacturing Solutions for Flexible Materials

2 experience=confidence For over 40 years, Web Industries has provided comprehensive outsource converting and manufacturing solutions involving fl exible materials. Over that time we ve helped hundreds of products reach the marketplace. We work with companies like yours to understand the materials being converted and how they are used in the fi nal product. Then we fi nd ways to make the entire process faster, more reliable, and more cost-effective for everyone. Flexible material converting and end-product contract manufacturing are our core businesses. From composites to plastics, nonwovens to specialty fi lms, we have experience with a range of materials that few companies can match and a knowledge base that few companies can equal. Our value to your company is in what we know about working with fl exible materials and how we use that knowledge to benefi t you and your products.

3 Markets Served Composites Consumer Products Industrial Emerging Technologies Medical Wire & Cable From our early roots converting specialty paper to our ongoing involvement with multi-phase polymer materials, Web Industries has played a key role in nearly every market that uses flexible materials as a manufacturing component. We re proud that the products we help improve can be found around the world and in nearly every home in North America. Composites We provide commercial-scale, best-in-class formatting, cutting, ply kitting, and development services for composites manufacturers and end-product fabricators. We practically defi ned certain aerospace composite standards that make the latest generation of commercial aircraft possible. And we re helping shape the use of composites in future industrial, automotive, and wind-energy component manufacturing. Consumer Products We partner with leading Fortune 500 companies to develop and manufacture a wide array of health & beauty, personal hygiene, household cleaning, food packaging, and baby products. Many of the nonwoven materials that we process are at the core of some of the most popular products in the retail marketplace. Industrial Emerging Technologies We explore ways to push the boundaries of emerging markets through the use of high-tech fl exible materials in customized multi-layer insulation solutions, printed electronics, thin-fi lm batteries, fl exible displays, permeable membranes, and solar energy components. These applications will make tomorrow s products lighter, more effi cient, and more durable. Medical We collaborate with medical device companies to deliver silent-partner contract medical manufacturing solutions that mitigate risk, ensure product supply, and provide long-term program viability. We have helped develop, test, validate, and manufacture some of the longest-running clinical diagnostic and personal health monitoring products in use today. Wire & Cable We create customized high-performance components that provide superior signal isolation, fi re protection, shielding, and fl exibility properties to the current and future generations of power, data communication, and control system wire & cable products. experience=confidence

6 you&us=success The word innovation gets thrown around a lot in business, and one company s innovation is often another company s standard operating procedure. Web Industries knows that staying ahead of the competition takes more than just buying the latest piece of equipment. It takes the materials knowledge and process know-how to integrate equipment into complete manufacturing solutions for our partners. Know-how such as: Our comprehensive prepreg composite precision slitting technologies positioned us to defi ne key aerospace material standards and secure multi-decade participation in commercial aerospace programs. The development and commercialization of multi-layer ultrasonic nonwoven bonding technologies led to our manufacturing the key brand-differentiating component behind a recent global wound-care product launch. Our converting and manufacturing expertise helped a medical device company improve yields from high-value materials, realize eightfold production increases, and increase manufacturing capacity to handle surge and long-term product volume growth. We rapidly designed, developed, and commercialized the manufacture of precision signal isolation tapes for one of our wire & cable partners, enabling them to achieve a fi rst-to-market product launch.
