Spring is here, bringing warmer weather and a new recognition
By Robert Prybutok
Spring is in the air, bringing warmer weather and longer hours of sunlight, as well as new beginnings and new innovations for Polymer Technologies. Regardless of the season, Polymer is hard at work finding material solutions for noise, vibration, and thermal energy management—and making our company a great place to work. We’re excited to announce that our efforts have resulted in Polymer being named as a finalist for the Delaware Business Times Family Owned Business Awards.
We’ve also been on the road, visiting The Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, where we had a chance to show how our vibration isolation products can help the trucking industry. We then headed to Orlando for the Gasketing/Converting Expo ‘16 to highlight our film, foam, barrier, damper, and PSA composites for use in a multitude of industries.
In this newsletter, you’ll find the highlights of what’s been going on at Polymer and blogs and case studies you may have missed. We hope you enjoy checking out what we’ve been up to lately and are looking forward to continuing to find solutions that make for more energy-efficient products and a quieter world.
