Therm-O-Disc gets $1M Ohio Tech Grant BY LOU WHITMIRE • News Journal • April 28, 2010 MANSFIELD -- Emerson Therm-O-Disc and its technology partner, NexTech, will receive a $1 million grant Friday through the Ohio Third Frontier initiative. Eric Fingerhut, Chancellor of the Ohio Board of Regents and chairman of Ohio's Third Frontier Program, will be at the 1320 S. Main St. company at noon Friday to announce the grant. Therm-O-Disc was founded in 1947. The company NexTech Materials Ltd., in Lewis Center, and Therm-O-Disc won the grant for the Hydrogen Sensor Manufacturing Technology project, according to the Ohio Department of Development. The hydrogen sensor was developed to monitor battery function in data centers and telecom sites, such as back-up power systems for data storage, wireless base stations and cell towers. "I want to commend Therm-O-Disc and the company's president, John Rhodes, for their forward thinking and for receiving the grant and focusing on new innovative products," said state Rep. Jay Goyal, D-Mansfield. "This is another example of how the Third Frontier Program is helping to create jobs now in the north central Ohio area. "In March, Fingerhut said, the sensors industry in Ohio steadily added jobs and attracted private investment. "The program symbolizes how Ohio's historic strengths can be converted into new, innovative, and successful opportunities for economic growth", he said.
