About us

Named after the metallic elements Pt and Y, PTYI acts as an industrial sourcing partner for overseas companies, providing engineering-led local procurement support in China.

We see value, we respect value, and we add value

When sourcing from China, companies typically choose between working directly with factories or through trading companies.

Both have trade-offs.

Direct sourcing can reduce cost,
but often creates fragmented supply — multiple suppliers, higher coordination effort,
and increased logistics complexity.
It also requires independent validation, as the full production setup is not always visible.

Trading companies simplify communication,
but can limit transparency, supplier visibility, and independent decision-making.

Is there another way? Yes! That’s where we come in. 

Sourcing & Procurement Support in China

With our combined experience in engineering, manufacturing and international business, we chose to focus on industrial sourcing and procurement support— particularly where technical understanding matters.

As an engineering-led sourcing partner in China, PTYI provides technical sourcing support as well as local procurement support for overseas companies. Our work focuses on machinery, automation components and other industrial equipment, where effective sourcing requires more than simply finding a supplier.
