REGENT CONTROLS IS THE MADE IN CT MANUFACTURER OF THE WEEK

(Rocky Hill, Connecticut) - CONNSTEP announced today that Regent Controls, Inc. is the featured Made in CT manufacturer of the week.  Now in its sixty-sixth year, the Regent Controls team designs, manufactures, and sells a complete line of industrial clutch/brake controls, timers and relays for machinery throughout the world.

Located in Ansonia, the company is committed to environmental sustainability through the selection of materials and processes that are safe to their employees and the planet.  Taking continuous strides to reduce their use of raw materials and energy, the company identifies safer materials and chemicals for use in the production cycle and recycles where possible. 

"Regent Controls is representative of the strong, small businesses that make Connecticut a leader in manufacturing technology and we are proud to have them part of The Made in CT Program," said Bonnie Del Conte, president of CONNSTEP.

The Made in CT Program (www.made-in-ct.com) is a dedicated feature on the CONNSTEP website, creating a directory for the state's manufacturers to showcase products and services. Eligible companies can register to receive a complimentary company profile page to share company history, products/services and company news.  The goal of the program is to showcase the products made in the Nutmeg State and highlight the contributions of the manufacturing community to the public. Additionally, the program provides social media forums for manufacturers to connect with one another and discuss industry issues.

"CONNSTEP is excited to provide an opportunity for Regent Controls and the local manufacturing community to benefit from greater exposure and to be recognized for the important impact they make on the Connecticut economy,“ Bonnie Del Conte, "The Made in CT Program offers local supply chain connections, sector peer networking and greater visibility to legislators and other economic stakeholders."
