CODIXX receives Foreign Trade Prize 2019
As one of three companies CODIXX is awarded the Foreign Trade Award 2019 because of their activities in foreign markets
On May 16th , CODIXX AG was one of three companies to receive the AURA Foreign Trade Prize 2019 from the state of Saxony-Anhalt. This prize is awarded to companies from Saxony-Anhalt that are very successful in foreign markets.
The Foreign Trade Prize has been awarded since 2017 and is presented by the Minister of Economics, Science and Digitisation, Prof. Dr. Armin Willingmann, at the Foreign Trade Day. He was impressed by the achievements of the individual companies: "The three prize winners are real foreign trade professionals. They have been extremely successful on foreign markets for years and are thus representative of many companies in the country that achieve top performances in their niche and set international standards. I, too, am constantly surprised by the 'hidden champions' we have in the country. Respect!
In addition to a certificate, the award-winning companies received a professional image film to support their worldwide sales activities. The image films of all the award-winning companies were presented to the public for the first time in front of around 100 people and officially handed over to the companies for use.
CODIXX specializes in the development and manufacture of high-quality glass polarizers for the ultraviolet, visible and infrared spectral range. They are a key component in many applications, such as measurement and medical technology, optical communication and aerospace, to name but a few.
The polarizers are supplied to customers in over 40 countries. This corresponds to an export share of over 80%. The main sales markets are China, Japan, the USA and Germany.
Ralf Werner, Sales Manager, accepted the award on behalf of the Management Board with two employees: "We are very pleased about this award, which we see as an incentive for further growth at home and abroad. Saxony-Anhalt has proved to be an ideal location for CODIXX AG, which is why we are delighted to receive this award."
