What’s new? LAMATEK Inc. was approved for the New Jersey Manufacturing Voucher Program – or NJ MVP – an initiative that provides reimbursement grants to targeted manufacturers to assist with equipment purchases. The company utilized this program to acquire its latest equipment investment: The Catbridge Model 729 Slitter Rewinder. In 2023, it also purchased a Delta Crusader® Rotary Converter by Delta ModTech.
Workforce development: LAMATEK is an active member of the South Jersey community, with annual events geared toward young adult education, sustainability, and the overall promotion of manufacturing as a viable and rewarding career. It works closely with local high schools, colleges and local manufacturing businesses to shed light on the benefits of manufacturing in New Jersey, which includes more than 600 manufacturing businesses just in its own county. In the past several years, the company helped the Gloucester County Vocational-Technical School District secure a state grant to build a one-of-a-kind Advanced Manufacturing Center only 10 minutes from our plant.
