WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) announced on Monday that Palladin Swiss-Style Machining in Waterbury is this week’s “Murphy’s Monday Manufacturer.” Palladin specializes in custom precision Swiss-style machining and vertical milling. They develop performance-critical parts and prototypes for the medical, electronics, aerospace, and defense industries. Their primary customers include Virginia Panel, Sturm Ruger, Sig Sauer, Medtronic, L3 Harris, and dozens more companies around the world. Palladin is a second-generation family owned business that was founded in 1963 by Anthony Palladino and is now run by his son Dean.

“Connecticut is home to the most dynamic manufacturing base in the world and Palladin is proof of that. I’m happy to highlight Palladin for being a leader in the Swiss machining industry and for their commitment to Connecticut. My office is here to help,” said Murphy.

“Palladin Swiss-Style Machining provides turnkey solutions for developing performance-critical parts and prototypes. We are passionate in our quest to achieve uncompromising precision in every part we turn. For over 55 years, our proven abilities in Swiss Cam and CNC Swiss Screw Machining have earned the trust of clients nationwide. Our machining abilities have also earned important certifications and registrations that qualify us to serve highly-regulated industries that include Aerospace, Medical, Automotive, Defense, Electrical, Firearms, and many more,” said Dean Palladino, president of Palladin Swiss-Style Machining.

Palladin remains active in the Waterbury community, routinely donating to a variety of charities including Waterbury Hospital, St. Mary’s Hospital, Naugatuck Valley Community College, Smaller Manufacturers Association, and more. Palladin is ISO 9001:2015 certified and International Traffic in Arms Regulated (ITAR) compliant. The company employs 32 people from their 20,000 square foot facility and 11,000 square foot warehouse in Waterbury.

The manufacturing industry plays a crucial role throughout Connecticut communities, creating new jobs and accelerating the state’s economic recovery. Today, Connecticut’s thousands of manufacturers account for 10% of the state’s jobs and 87% of the state’s total exports. In order to protect and grow manufacturing jobs in Connecticut, Murphy has introduced two pieces of legislation that aim to strengthen existing standards and prioritize the purchase of American-made goods, the BuyAmerican.gov Act and the American Jobs Matter Act.
