Anomatic
Anomatic Corporation manufactures aluminum products, and is a manufacturer of large-quantity aluminum parts for cosmetic companies' packaging including Revlon, Maybelline, Estee Lauder and Mary Kay.[1]
History and product line
Since 1965,[2] Anomatic has been manufacturing items ranging from consumer products such as MP3 players, cookware, and baseball bats to industrial applications such as heat sinks and aerospace/aviation components. The company produces anodized aluminum packaging for the automotive, pharmaceutical, health and beauty industries for clients as well as industrial applications. It is headquartered in Newark, Ohio with an additional US location in Connecticut,[3] and an international facility in Suzhou, China.[2] Anomatic’s services include package design, rapid 3D models, finishing, anodizing, decorating, assembly, metal forming, prototypes, cost containment, and research and development.[4]
The company improved double anodizing,[5] which for the first time allowed high-volume packaging to be fully anodized in addition to having a desired decorative finish. After anodizing or double anodizing is complete, Anomatic’s metal stamping and finishing [6] department then produces high volume metal parts.[7]
Environmental policies
Anomatic is committed to being environmentally responsible.[8] The company has implemented a sustainability plan to reduce energy, waste, water and air pollution as well as recycle and reuse materials. In 2010, Anomatic announced the formation of the Sustainability and Environmental Operations Group which works to expand the company’s sustainable and green operations through Lean, Six Sigma and GMP.[9]
