Paris, 13 November 2013- EnterNext, the NYSE Euronext subsidiary dedicated to promoting and developing the SME market, today congratulated composite and plastic injection molding specialist RocTool on its transfer from the Free Market to NYSE Alternext in Paris.

We will also be stepping up our R&D to continue to offer new developments of our innovative induction technology, making it essential for major brands and their suppliers."

To celebrate listing, Alexandre Guichard rang the Opening Bell for NYSE Euronext's European market.
