March 31, 2011 EPR Network Leave a comment

MAR 31, 2011 /RTPR/ — Brooklyn, NY — Onondaga Nation and Brooklyn-based Ecologic Solutions today announced a historic, Native American-green business partnership to boost the company’s efforts to rid workplaces of toxic cleaners and replace them with sustainable alternatives.

Under the terms of the partnership, Onondaga Nation (www.onondaganation.org) has agreed to become the second largest shareholder in EcoLogic Solutions (www.ecologicsolutions.com), a leading supplier of natural, plant-based cleaning supplies for restaurants, hotels, schools, office buildings, and other commercial users. EcoLogic Solutions will use the investment to create jobs and expand current operations, while developing new products and approaches to eliminate harmful cleaning supplies from workplaces.

“EcoLogic Solutions is a company that shares our goals of a more sustainable planet, and a better, more holistic way of doing business,” said Jake Edwards, member of the Onondaga Nation Council of Chiefs. “This is the first time we’ve invested in a U.S.-based environmental firm. When you partner with Onondaga, you partner for life.”

“When I founded EcoLogic Solutions, I looked to Onondaga values and sustainability as paragons for our business,” said EcoLogic CEO Anselm Doering. “That’s why I’m honored, and humbled, to make in this announcement today. It’s the fulfillment of a dream within a dream.”

Based in the Brooklyn Navy Yard along with 30 other green businesses, EcoLogic Solutions manufactures soaps, detergents, degreasers, solvents, glass cleaners, disinfectants, and other earth-friendly cleaning supplies for the institutional marketplace using bio-based formulations that are readily biodegradable and non toxic to humans and aquatic life. The company, using groundbreaking technology and scientific advances, offers the most progressive, environmentally preferable commercial cleaners in the market today.

EcoLogic Solutions clients include Chipotle Mexican Grill, Whole Foods Markets, the Statue of Liberty, Mandarin Oriental Hotels, Mario Batali & Bastianich Hospitality Group, the Durst Organization, and NBC Universal, among many others. It sells exclusively to wholesale markets at this time. EcoLogic Solutions’ products will be made available to Onondaga Nation citizens soon.

A sovereign nation on 7,300 acres south of Syracuse, Onondaga is a proud member of the Haudenosaunee (“People of the Long House”), an alliance of six Native American nations sometimes referred to as the Iroquois Confederacy or Six Nations. Other members include the Mohawk, Oneida, Cayuga, Seneca, and Tuscarora nations.

“The Onondaga Nation and its people have a unique spiritual, cultural, and historic relationship with the earth and the waters, which is embodied in
Gayanashagowa, the Great Law of Peace,” said Jake Edwards. “It is the duty of the Nation’s leaders to work for a healing of the earth, to protect it and pass it on to future generations. This partnership is about making a better world for the generations yet to come.”

March 25, 2011 artsec Leave a comment

Reflecting its dynamic focus and the need for excellent online representation in the digital age, APT has launched its new web site which improves on performance, has better information and easier accessibility and navigation.

Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, is pleased to announce the launch of its new web site. Following a period of consultation and redesign, the new web site improves on performance, has better information and easier accessibility and navigation.

Improvements to the web site are on several fronts. The improved performance comes due to technical changes in the underlying software which powers the web site and simultaneously it offers APT greater flexibility for content management.

One of the key emphasis of the new design is to ensure east navigation and accessibility. The majority of the site’s rich information can be found with just one or two clicks.

“A solid, accessible online presence is essential in today’s business environment” said Mr. Hamid Amiri, APT’s Managing Director. “APT has always been a flexible and leading edge company, this is reflected in our redesigned web site.”

2011 has been an excellent year for APT so far, in January APT entered into an agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market, sell and distribute Mitsui’s adhesive resin ADMER. ADMER adhesive resin is a functionally modified polyolefin that serves as a tie layer in multilayer applications including steel pipes. To kick-off the agreement Mitsui Chemicals Europe joined APT at ArabPlast 2011 and provided pre-sales support and technical advice on ADMER.

APT Starts New Promotion Drive for ADMER Pipe Coating Solutions

March 4, 2011 artsec Leave a comment

Advanced Polymer Trading FZC recently entered into a broad sales and distribution agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market Mitsui’s ADMER adhesive resin. As a result of that agreement APT have started a new campaign to promote ADMER as a steel pipe coating solution.

Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, has launched a new campaign to promote ADMER as a steel pipe coating solution. ADMER coated on steel pipes protects them from corrosion and weathering and so assures a long operating life time.

Earlier this year APT entered into an agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market, sell and distribute Mitsui’s adhesive resin ADMER. ADMER adhesive resin is a functionally modified polyolefin that serves as a tie layer in multilayer applications including steel pipes.

ADMER can be used to coat steel pipes using a three layer PE process (3LPE) or a three layer PP process (3LPP). For 3LPE coating the epoxy primer is applied onto the preheated steel pipe to provide an oxygen barrier. Next ADMER PE adhesive is applied to create a strong bond between the epoxy layer and the top coat PE which is applied to provide mechanical protection. The structure of 3LPP coatings corresponds to that of 3LPE, combining an epoxy primer, a PP top coat and a PP adhesive.

The polypropylene (PP) coating is particularly suitable for applications where high service temperature and excellent mechanical protection are mandatory. For both types of coatings ADMER is compatible with any kind of commercially available epoxy primers and polyethylene/ polypropylene top coats.

“Using ADMER in three layer PE coatings for pipelines has been possible since the 1980’s, now after three decades it is a popular solution” said Mr. Hamid Amiri, APT’s Managing Director. “And it is increasingly replacing single layer fusion bonded epoxy coatings.”

As a tie resin, ADMER can be used in many different applications and with many different materials including Polyamide (PA), EVOH, Polystyrene (PS), Polyester (PET, PETG), Polycarbonate (PC), Polyolefins (PP, PE) and of course epoxy.

APT and EVAL Europe nv Enter Into New Partnership to Promote EVAL Resins

February 15, 2011 artsec

Advanced Polymer Trading FZC has teamed up with EVAL Europe nv to market, sell and distribute EVAL resins.

Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, has entered into an agreement with EVAL Europe nv

to market, sell and distribute EVAL resins. EVAL, which is the registered trademark for the ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer resins are characterised by their excellent processability and outstanding barrier properties.

EVAL polymers are particularly suited for food, medical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, agricultural & industrial packaging and automotive applications which perfectly fits the sectors and applications targeted by APT.

“We are very pleased and excited to be working with EVAL Europe” said Mr. Hamid Amiri, APT’s Managing Director. “EVAL is a great product and we are expecting lots of customer interest.”

One of the major applications of EVAL is as a functional barrier in food packaging. Keeping oxygen out, an EVAL layer preserves the flavour and the quality of the food. Even in cases where the food is more stable or specially treated, such as baby milk, EVAL barrier properties can be used to protect sensitive vitamin content.

Resolving pest issues in food areas

November 22, 2010 exterminat43 Leave a comment

US 22nd November 2010th _Imagine you are eating foie gras, caviar, some nice medium rare steak and some delicious wine to wash everything out, somewhere within the depths of the restaurants; little critters are having their very own feast. Restaurants and food establishments work with food all the time. Food is an organic product. We need food to live. The thing is that we are not the only ones lining up for the treats. Rats, cockroaches, ants’ flies and other kinds of pests could be lurking on the kitchen or the main restaurant hall. In a place like New York where food establishments are very massive industries, it is possible that there will be some kind of threat with the pests.

From Chinches de cama to ants, pests can show up in a restaurant kitchen that is not tidy and is not sanitary. It is the role of food places to ensure that the kitchen and the counters up to the last square inch of space from floor to ceiling are clean so that it will not attract insects and prevent them from populating the area. Food establishments would often time stock up on food. It is necessary since they need spices and other kinds of food stuff. It is important to keep them sealed and protected against any foreign intruders. This will seal the freshness and of course this will protect your investment since food prices are all raising, you would not want to waste any ingredients because of some pest loitering in your food containment units.

What if there is an infestation? What if there is something out there that is trying to eat with you and taking your food that you have worked hard to cook? In restaurants and even in regular home kitchens, when you see a pest, it is necessary to call experts as soon as possible. Getting exterminador Nueva York is necessary. Pest control is not just killing them. It is the proper detection, proper eradication and proper disposal of the pests. From the first signs of infestation from ants to rats to Chinches de cama, calling experts will help you in recognizing the problem.

Think about it. They would not be able to come in the house without a certain opening. It could be an open door that allowed rats and mice to come in. it could be a crack on the wall where ants and cockroaches move across. There is always a logical reason how they got in and that is the business of the exterminador Nueva York. They detect and find areas not only the isolated areas where you saw them. Chances are there are more of them in places adjacent to you. They could be on the garbage bin just outside your door that is full or organic matter. That is like a signal for pests to feast around your home and consequently, go inside your home for more.

For restauranteurs and food service owners, you would not want to go to the fumigador Nueva York to eradicate the problem. This only means that you have a massive infestation and you know how bad it can strip off the quality of your business and consequently, it could render you without any customers left. That is how scary the pest problem could be.

Real Time Press Release Distribution

August 20, 2010 EPR Network Leave a comment

In today’s Internet the real time information is already playing a significant role in how businesses and people access and consume the information online. Technologies online have emerged up to the point where 2 minutes may sometimes be the difference between having tens of thousands of people not only seen your PR announcement, but creating a long tail of reactions across the vast real time online space adding up to your overall online presence/reputation and your message being buried down among millions of other identical pieces of information.

Considering how crucial the real time information for the average business and web user appears to be, one can only imagine how great the impact of the real time information flow over the public relations business online can be.

That’s why we think it is about time for RealTimePressRelease.com — real time press release distribution online.

In a nutshell RealTimePressRelease.com is a do-it-yourself publishing platform for real time press release distribution.
