Perry expressed enthusiasm about the company’s direction, stating, “I am highly optimistic about the future of Technica and the industries we serve. We are privileged to represent and distribute products from some of the most respected companies in the markets we serve. With Elite Materials Co. Ltd. (EMC) having controlling interest in Technica, we are uniquely positioned to leverage their world-class management practices, resources and proven strategies that helped EMC surpass $2 billion in sales in 2024.”
As part of its growth strategy, Technica plans to expand its team by hiring 10–15 new employees over the next 12–15 months in key areas such as sales, equipment service, and product specialization.
