DYMAX Corp., a leading manufacturer of advanced light-curable adhesives, coatings, and sealants and light-curing equipment, was recognized by the U.S. Department of Commerce for its innovation and exportation to foreign companies. The company’s officers were presented the chamber’s Export Achievement Certificate at company headquarters in Torrington , CT , in April. The award recognizes companies that have shown growth in exports, remained in good financial standing, and demonstrated a willingness to talk with other businesses about expanding their export market. U.S. Representative Christopher Murphy and Anne S. Evans, director of the chamber’s U.S. commercial service in Connecticut , toured the DYMAX facility and presented the award.
The company reports that foreign exports are driving its growth; most of the company’s manufacturing and R&D jobs are related to exports. The U.S. Department of Commerce office has been instrumental in working with DYMAX to navigate Korean import regulations as well as providing counseling and insight into the Central and Latin American markets and beyond.
