Southern India | September 18, 2026 – Silkflex Polymers Sdn Bhd has announced a major step forward in its regional expansion strategy with the official inauguration of the Silkflex Matalia International office on September 18, 2026. Concurrently, the company has formally named Silkflex Matalia International as its official regional dealer, tasked with driving the adoption of premium water-based textile printing technologies across Southern India.
The launch event was spearheaded by Dr. Eric HL Tan, Founder of Silkflex Polymers Sdn Bhd, signaling the critical importance of this commercial partnership to the brand’s long-term Indian blueprint.
Rather than relying on traditional distribution frameworks, this collaboration integrates the dealer’s extensive regional market intelligence with Silkflex’s advanced chemical engineering. The new office will serve as a specialized commercial and technical hub, designed to accelerate product availability and significantly reduce lead times for textile manufacturers throughout the territory.
Through this newly established presence, South Indian textile printers gain immediate access to localized inventories of Silkflex’s eco-friendly ink portfolios. Furthermore, Silkflex Matalia International will deploy hands-on consultation services, working alongside factories to optimize their production lines, recommend precise formulations, and ensure robust troubleshooting protocols.
This deployment reinforces Silkflex’s philosophy of ecosystem collaboration. By linking Silkflex Polymers Sdn Bhd’s Malaysia production along with its research and development teams via Silkflex Matalia International, the enterprise ensures that future product innovations are directly aligned with the evolving performance and sustainability demands of the local market. The opening of the Silkflex Matalia International facility underscores a shared vision of operational excellence and industrial progress. Moving forward, both entities will collaborate closely to champion sustainable printing practices, deliver uncompromised product reliability, and empower regional manufacturers with world-class technical support.
