Zyvex Performance Materials
New Opportunities
In February 2009, Matt Garver joined thousands of others
in a similar situation by becoming a displaced employee
as a result of a chemical company layoff. Matt immediately
began seeking employment through temporary agencies
and numerous other employment opportunity outlets.
He sought a position where his unique skill set could be
utilized and he could continue to grow and advance in his
science and technology-related career.
Enter Zyvex Performance Materials, a Columbus-based producer of nanotechnology-enhanced composite materials used to improve the performance of familiar products such as golf clubs, baseball bats, and bicycles, as well as more high-tech applications in aerospace and marine products. Through a temporary agency, Matt began work in February 2009 with Zyvex. At the time, Zyvex was not in a position to offer Matt permanent, fulltime employment. With the help of Ohio Third Frontier funding in April 2009, Matt was hired full-time in June as a Laboratory Technician. The company is highly satisfied with Matt, who it says has been an excellent addition to the Zyvex team, assisting in the advancement of high-level projects and aiding in next-generation technology.
