[Donga.com = Reporter Park Hae-shik] CK Solution Co., Ltd. (CEO Ahn Keun-pyo) announced on the 11th that it was honored with the prestigious $50 Million Export Tower at the 57th Trade Day ceremony.

Trade Day is a statutory anniversary established in 1954 to commemorate South Korea's achievement of $100 million USD in exports. Organized by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy (MOTIE), the annual ceremony recognizes and rewards enterprises and individuals who have significantly contributed to pioneering overseas markets, expanding exports, and creating jobs. Under this year's slogan, "Together, Further," the ceremony was held at COEX in Seoul on the 8th, honoring 599 meritorious individuals for their contributions to trade promotion.

According to CK Solution, in addition to receiving the $50 Million Export Tower, CEO Ahn Keun-pyo was awarded the Presidential Commendation in recognition of his outstanding contributions to expanding the company's Dry Room and Clean Room businesses in international markets. This milestone comes as the domestic headquarters achieved 100 billion KRW in combined orders and revenue, bolstered by strong performance from its overseas subsidiaries, including 70 billion KRW from the Hungarian corporate entity and 10 billion KRW from the Polish entity.

An official from CK Solution stated, "Throughout this year, we successfully diversified our client portfolio by securing partnerships with Hyundai Motor Group, Dongwha Group, and Lotte Aluminium. We have also implemented advanced technical innovations, such as improving Air Shower Auto Doors and completing the industry's first Dry Room construction designed for testing solid-state batteries—the next-generation energy source for the battery sector. Furthermore, on a single-contract basis, we successfully secured a 40 billion KRW order for the Phase 1 Dry Room expansion project at SDIHU (Samsung SDI Hungary), marking the largest single contract since our founding."

The official added, "To further accelerate our penetration into global markets, we officially established our Vietnamese subsidiary this past November and are currently on track to establish a local subsidiary or branch in Indonesia by 2021."
