Today’s global economic and competitive conditions are demanding change in an industry that has been static for over 50 years. I believe we have the most innovative, cost effective, environmentally efficient coatings technology in the industry.

Crockett continued, “During the conference call, we will be discussing the milestones reached over the last six months, including the decision to focus on our paper barrier technology, which enhances the performance of paper products, a $4 billion industry; and the metal finishing powder coat industry, which generates $5 billion annually in material sales. Companies in the metals industry are searching for a technology platform that will allow them to lighten the weight and cost of their products. Many companies in this industry are also positioning themselves to take advantage of the monies being provided by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act to companies that are reducing their energy usage and carbon footprint.”
Crockett will also be introducing the new management team and discussing their short- and long-term vision for Ecology Coatings.
