2013

International Trade Centre Established

To better serve our growing international customer base, PFM SCREEN established a dedicated international trade and customer service centre in 2013. Bringing export sales, engineering enquiries, and customer support under one structure allowed us to respond faster to buyers worldwide and support more complex technical specifications across multiple markets simultaneously.

Export Rights & International Raw Material Sourcing

PFM SCREEN obtained official import and export rights in 1999, opening our products to international markets for the first time. Key raw materials — including high-quality stainless steel wire — were sourced from Japan, establishing the premium material standards that remain in place today. Initial export markets included South Korea, Japan, and other Asian countries.

1992

New Purpose-Built Factory in Anping Industrial Park

Growing demand led PFM SCREEN to relocate to a purpose-built 2,000 m² factory within Anping industrial park in 1992 — a facility specifically designed for wire mesh weaving and metal belt fabrication, in the county that would later become recognised as China's national centre of wire mesh production.

1987 — Founded

Established as Anping PFM Screen

In 1987, during China's period of reform and opening up, Mr. Yang took over his father's family wire mesh workshop and formally established Anping PFM Screen. Initial production focused on hand-woven wire mesh conveyor belts for semi-automatic food processing lines — the foundation of what would grow into a specialist global metal belt supplier over the following nearly four decades.

Looking back over nearly four decades, PFM SCREEN Belting has grown from a single family workshop into a specialist manufacturer serving customers in 60+ countries.
