October 15th, 2018 - Lake in the Hills, IL - AFC has placed a major emphasis on process improvement over the past few years. This led to the development of a new stocking program that will reduce lead times for standard PTFE fabrics and PSA tapes.
Standard slit and full width rolls will now be stocked at the Lake in the Hills and Bennington, VT locations for faster fulfillment. AFC's Chief Operating Officer, Woody Swift, commented: "Every day makes a difference in manufacturing.
