Amidst countless businesses that come and go, what if one company stood as a steadfast pillar of Korea’s industry over decades? This is the story of CTR.

The Distinguished Long-Standing Enterprise title, organized by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups, isn’t simply given to companies with a long history. Among domestic businesses with over 45 years of operation (16,743 in total), only those excelling in social responsibility, economic contributions, and innovative activities are selected.
This year, out of 82 companies nationwide that applied, only 10 were ultimately chosen. CTR proudly stood among the two companies recognized in the Gyeongnam region.
CTR pioneered Korea’s aluminum forging industry, developing proprietary vehicle lightweighting technologies, and has become a leader in the global electric vehicle parts market. Its groundbreaking technological advancements have earned the trust of world-class automobile manufacturers, solidifying its position as a stable supply partner. These achievements not only demonstrate CTR’s competitiveness in the future mobility market but also played a crucial role in its selection as a Distinguished Long-Standing Enterprise.

Such words of encouragement resonate deeply with companies like CTR that have endured and thrived.
Messages congratulating CTR’s recognition as a Distinguished Long-Standing Enterprise also poured in from the local community. Changwon Special Case City Mayor Hong Nam-Pyo sent a congratulatory card celebrating CTR’s achievement and offering words of support.
Once again, congratulations to CTR on being named a Distinguished Long-Standing Enterprise! We look forward to its continued innovation and growth as a steadfast pillar of Korea’s industry.
