Los Angeles, CA - October 24, 2007 --Material Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: MTTG -News), an engineering company specializing in technologies that monitor and measure metal fatigue, will be featured on the History Channel’s Modern Marvels: Engineering Disasters, to be broadcast this Thursday, October 25, at 8 p.m. PDT. (Please check local TV listings for other broadcast times.)

The program will discuss several recent disasters, including the collapse of the Minneapolis I-35 Bridge on August 1, 2007. Immediately following this tragedy, several MATECH personnel were interviewed by local and nationwide media outlets, and their comments will be included in the History Channel broadcast.

Robert M. Bernstein, CEO and President of MATECH, said, “While the specific cause of this bridge collapse won’t be determined by authorities for many months, there is federal documentation showing current inspection practices are ineffective and often rely solely on inspectors’ subjectivity. This Modern Marvels episode explores some ways to help eliminate that subjectivity, improve the overall safety of bridge structures, and avoid similar tragedies in the future.”

Bernstein added, “There were known problems with this bridge. We try to emphasize the need for better bridge management through use of technologies that help owners make the right repairs at the right time to ensure structural integrity. It is essential that the best available inspection methods be used to determine the status of these bridges, and I believe the emphasis in the near term will be to improve bridge inspections, and management by exploiting the latest proven technologies.”
