Los Angeles, CA - August 27, 2007 --Material Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: MTTG -News; MATECH), an engineering and product/service company specializing in technologies that monitor and measure metal fatigue, is in continuing dialogue with various parties in The People's Republic of China. The Company believes its proprietary technology can increase bridge safety in the region.

"The recent bridge collapse tragedy in central China, the second reported one in the country this year, highlights the importance of bridge safety," said Robert M. Bernstein, MATECH's Chief Executive Officer. "We believe our Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor (EFS) system has the potential to dramatically increase bridge safety in the country. We continue to have a dialogue with Chinese officials and believe the EFS system has the potential to improve the safety of China's ever-growing infrastructure."
