Teknor Apex has acquired the dry color business of Akron, Ohio’s Dorum Color Company, a leading North American supplier of dry color with a singular focus on the rotational molding market. The deal, which expands Teknor’s dry color portfolio, is structured as an asset purchase and customers will be supplied from Teknor’s Henderson, Kentucky Facility.
Said Teknor’s president Suresh Swaminathan, “We are thrilled to add this business to our Teknor Color portfolio. Dorum’s focus on superior quality and delivery performance aligns directly with our approach. We look forward to continuing the longstanding relationships developed by Scott and his team.”
Scott Dority founded Dorum Color in 1998. He brought significant expertise to the company along with extensive industry experience that included working for Teknor Color in Ohio. He is an acknowledged expert in the rotational molding industry and has been an active participant in the Association of Rotational Molders (ARM) offering technical presentations and color workshops worldwide. He will play an active role in the transition of Dorum customers and suppliers to Teknor Color to ensure supply security and business continuity.
