CYRO Industries Receives Technology Leadership Award for Innovative Medical Acrylics.ROCKAWAY Rockaway, narrow peninsula, c.10 mi (16 km) long, SW Long Island, SE N.Y., in Queens borough of New York City. Separating Jamaica Bay from the Atlantic Ocean and isolated from the rest of New York City, the densely populated peninsula owes its growth to road and rail , N.J. -- CYRO Industries received the 2005 Technology Leadership Award in the field of plastics for medical devices from growth consulting firm Noun 1. consulting firm - a firm of experts providing professional advice to an organization for a fee consulting company business firm, firm, house - the members of a business organization that owns or operates one or more establishments; "he worked for a Frost & Sullivan. This Award is bestowed upon a company that makes a significant contribution to the industry by pioneering the development and market launch of innovative technologies. A wholly-owned subsidiary of Degussa, the world's largest specialty chemicals company, CYRO continually enhances its line of comprehensive medical grade acrylics to meet the ever-changing demands on medical devices. With solutions ranging from inherently antistatic Eliminating or reducing static electricity. See static electricity, antistatic bag, antistatic device, antistatic liquid and antistatic wristband. polymers to lipid and chemical resistant grades, CYRO's acrylic polymers can be utilized in a variety of medical-oriented applications including medical devices, medical packaging and medical diagnostics. "With this award we recognize CYRO Industries' leadership in developing groundbreaking technology in advanced medical grade acrylic compounds and alloys," notes Dr. Donald Rosato, Senior Research Analyst, Frost & Sullivan. "The company's R&D team is truly on the forefront of medical technology and continues to answer industry challenges with innovative solutions." One example is CYRO's Vu-Stat(R) acrylic multipolymer compounds with inherent static dissipative dis·si·pate v. dis·si·pat·ed, dis·si·pat·ing, dis·si·pates v.tr. 1.
