Miller Weldmaster, a global supplier for fabric welding solutions, celebrates its 30th anniversary of membership with the IFAI, Industrial Fabrics Association International this year.

Scott Miller, President of Miller Weldmaster, commented: “We certainly would not be where we are today and in a position to serve over 100 countries around the world without the opportunities IFAI has given us over the past 30 years.”

IFAI

Since its founding in 1912, IFAI, one of the world's largest textile trade associations, has been aiming to encourage its members to innovate and build quality fabric manufacturing solutions for fabric manufacturers around the globe, while preparing for the future.

“IFAI has also played a big role in our machine model innovation. Many of our past machine model designs originated from contacts that we made and manufacturing needs we learned of at the IFAI tradeshows,” said Miller.

Membership

The founder of Miller Weldmaster Al Miller became a member of IFAI in 1983. He quickly realised that the importance of the IFAI tradeshow for any supplier to the industrial fabrics industry and began the strongly interwoven relationship with IFAI that Miller Weldmaster maintains today.

In addition to the business benefits, Al also appreciated the personable nuances of IFAI as well: “He always enjoyed meeting all of the associated members, whether they were fabric suppliers, machine builders, or customers,” Scott Miller recalled.

An impact

Over the past 30 years, Miller Weldmaster has expanded to a global presence with distributive capacities in 20 countries.

“We're honoured to be a part of IFAI, its history, and its timeless values,” said Jeannette Hendrickson, Marketing Manager for Miller Weldmaster. "Our core is built on the philosophy of our founder, Al Miller, who always emphasised that the customers’ needs come first. Combine that with the current leadership of Scott Miller and his ability to promote the value of our team and you see how Miller Weldmaster is able to offer ‘First-Choice’ fabric welding solutions worldwide."

“We're energised by the future and what it holds for the special fabrics industry,” said Hendrickson. “We look forward to continuing to be a part of IFAI's legacy and producing first-choice fabric welding equipment.”

The company has sold machines in over 100 nations around the world, and with distributors in 20 countries, Miller Weldmaster Corporation is a leading international manufacturer and provider of solutions for plastic welding machines.
