    Kim: sees growing business in South America

    The company directly handles sales to Colombia and Peru. It built markets in Colombia following a visit with KOTRA, an organisation that promotes Korean goods, 10 years ago.

    'Business in Columbia is growing well, and business in Peru is steady,' she added. The company serves the Mexican market through a local distributor. In addition, SD is trying to grow its business in Brazil, Kim said.

    Earlier this year, SD launched viscoelastic foam systems. Lots between 20 kg and 1 tonne of the formulated system are available.

In addition, the material, is available in closed cell and open cell forms, and two different softness levels.
