JACKSONVILLE, Fla., May 27, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mariner's Choice International Inc., (Pink Sheets:MCII), a North American developer and marketer of "green" biodegradable and botanical eco-safe products, today announced that it has been engaged by an Ontario waste-recycling corporation to develop a biologically-based formulation for waste remediation. The Company's research and development team is at the advanced stage of completion and testing, and expects to deliver product for approval within 30 days.
This assignment is an example of the broadening capability of Mariner's Choice to develop products that empower the Company's growth into both mainstream and niche markets. Recent private-label customer wins are evidence of Mariner's Choice expanding product portfolio achieving market acceptance in a variety of retail and commercial venues.
President & CEO Amie Hingston commented, "Our focus is the rapidly-growing 'green' market that is fueled by increasing consumer demand for affordable and effective eco-friendly products. Our partners are taking products we've developed into a number of mainstream markets, such as automotive, household, industrial and commercial; and also into niche markets such as pool and spa, aerospace, restoration, and specialty retail outlets. We've created and commercialized a broad array of products designed for people who care about both their budget and the sustainability of our planet."
Hingston added, "Our product portfolio includes an instant hand sanitizer qualified for medical personnel and ideal for the hospitality industry, a super wax and polish for boat and car owners, a versatile all-purpose household cleaner, an industrial-strength de-scaler/delimer, a fuel enhancer and a bilge/machinery cleaner and deodorizer. And there are more. All perform as well as, or better than, the traditional and oftentimes toxic chemical-based products they're designed to replace, and they do so on a cost-effective basis. We are pleased by the growing market demand for what we produce, and we will continue to address that demand vigorously."
