Los Angeles, CA-- August 17, 2006—Material Technologies, Inc. (OTC BB; MTNA.OB - News) ("MATECH"), announced today that Finance-Markets.com has initiated coverage on the Company. The report follows:
MATECH has developed proven, patented metal fatigue detection technology that will locate and monitor growing cracks in metal structures and equipment, with industry-leading accuracy. Federal and state transportation agencies are searching for solutions to accurately detect metal fatigue in order to ensure safety, reduce maintenance costs and prioritize repairs of critical metal structures including bridges and railroads.
As of Monday August 7, 2006 MATECH closed at 0.089$ and is expected to strengthen after last weeks International Conference on Fatigue and Fracture. The conference was designed to bring together the world's experts in the mechanics, detection, and remediation of metal fatigue damage to bridges and other transportation structures. MATECH presented technical discussions on the benefits of using its patented Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor™ (EFS) to detect and monitor microscopic growing cracks in bridge infrastructure.
The International Conference on Fatigue and Fracture in the Infrastructure - Bridges and Structures of the 21st Century attracted transportation agencies including state Departments of Transportation, bridge owners and engineers, inspection engineers, researchers and technology suppliers. The forum provided the fatigue and fracture issues facing the transportation industry and evaluated the latest advancements, applications, research and solutions.
MATECH is gathering strong momentum as a company over the past quarter and needs to be monitored carefully as their stock will soon be evaluated at a higher trading value. Macam Investor Relations rates MATECH as “UNDERVALUED” as President and CEO Cameron MacDonald quotes “We feel based on our estimates MATECH has strategically positioned itself with lucrative private and government controlled contracts which are expected to close in the future. These contracts will strengthen MATECH’s financial evaluations, while enabling them to allocate the necessary resources to increase their market share rapidly”.
Al Giga, Business Development Manager at Macam Investor Relations quotes: “MATECH should be on everyone’s radar. MATECH is backed by a strong management team. MATECH has the ability to perform and execute their services to government and private organizations both efficiently and cost effectively, inevitably surpassing their reputable and proven product over their competitors.”
