The firm with about €40m in annual sales made the list​by showing solid revenue growth over a 3-year period.

Exports have been a prime driver for the company that last year moved into a 100,000 square foot factory, office, lab and cleanroom that met Class 8 ISO requirements to control airborne contamination.
