Microlight Corporation: Manufacturer of medical laser devices to treat carpal tunnel syndrome. Houston-based Microlight Corporation realized early on that it would struggle to stay competitive if it produced its products domestically.
Microlight manufactures a laser device to treat the swelling of soft tissue for sports injuries and maladies such as carpal tunnel syndrome. After considering its options, the company decided to explore the benefits of having its manufacturing done in foreign countries and in 2001 the company partnered with ITI to develop a strategy for the manufacture and importing of its product from China. What might have been a very expensive piece of medical equipment has become a “value-added” product that is available to medical distributors and affordable for practitioners.
Mike Barbour, President of Microlight, is convinced that ITI’s knowledge and expertise in China manufacturing saved him significant time and costly mistakes that would surely have occurred if he tried to accomplish business is in China on his own. The Microlight-ITI team lets Barbour focus on marketing his product to the medical field while ITI concentrates on getting the highest-quality product at the best price.
