Industrial Nanotech Distributor Signs Agreement for Use of Nansulate Throughout Large Dyehouse in Turkey


NAPLES, Fla., Oct. 23, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Industrial Nanotech, Inc. (Pink Sheets:INTK) today announced that Kolorgen, Ltd., an International distributor of the Company, has reached an agreement with one of the largest dyehouses in Turkey for the application of the Company's cutting-edge Nansulate coatings on all extreme temperature equipment.

The customer anticipates that it can generate a savings of approximately $40,000 a month in energy costs by using Nansulate throughout the facility. The dyehouse, located in the Trakya region of Turkey, manufactures products for clientele which includes two of the largest sports apparel manufacturers in the world. According to the agreement, Kolorgen will apply Industrial Nanotech's Nansulate High Heat throughout the factory on equipment such as LNG (Liquified Natural Gas) burners, dye machines, fabric drying and ranges, steam pipes, valves and hot water storage tanks.

"This is the first time we have undertaken a project of this magnitude," stated Dr. Vedat Bilgin, PhD, President of Kolorgen, Ltd. "Nansulate will be applied to all areas of the plant where they are experiencing a loss of heat. Previously we had very good results from another dyehouse in the same region, where we applied Nansulate only to the heat exchangers of the dyeing machines. We have been closely monitoring their consumption of LNG since April, and the last 5 months shows an energy savings of more than 20%. From this data and the scope of this new project in Turkey, we expect Nansulate to save them more than 20% of their $200,000 per month LNG energy costs," continued Dr. Bilgin.

"We are in the process of calculating the exact number of gallons that this project will use based on the number of coats required for each piece of equipment. Although we are uncertain of the exact order size, we are certain that this will constitute the largest single order for a factory to date," commented Francesca Crolley, VP of Operations and Marketing for Industrial Nanotech.
