K-Tron Earns Chemical Processing Readers Choice Award for
Best Technology Provider in Feeder Category
PITMAN, NJ (December 3, 2004)—Chemical Processing, a Putman Media trade journal serving the North American chemical process industries, recently recognized K-Tron as the “Best provider of technology” in the category of Feeders.
K-Tron's selection as the winner of the 2004 Readers Choice Award for Feeders is the result of an industry-wide survey conducted by Chemical Processing. Over 20,000 chemical industry professionals were invited to participate and asked to identify suppliers they recognized as providing the best technology. The survey was fill-in-the-blank and covered 40 categories of equipment. Without any visual aid or other prompts, hundreds of readers shared their opinions. Readers were asked to participate only with those technologies with which they have experience. Each category accepted only one vote; in other words, every company named in the results was voted #1 by a specific percentage of respondents.
In the category of Feeders, 22 % of the readers named K-Tron as the best technology provider.
Results for the category of Feeders were:
K-Tron 22%
Acrison, Inc. 14%
Schenck-AccuRate 12%
