Nixalite Catalog to Add SolaTrim Peel-and-Stick Barriers as Innovative, Aesthetic Solution to Permanently Protect Residential Solar Systems from Pest and Environmental Damage.

Sacramento, CA, USA (December 6, 2015) — SolaTrim™ LLC, innovators in protective barriers to beautify and safeguard residential solar systems, announced today that the company has signed a wholesale distribution agreement with Nixalite of America, Inc., a leading provider of bird control, bird barrier, and pest control products.

Nixalite has added SolaTrim protective barriers to its Bird, Animal, & Pest Control wholesale published and online catalog. SolaTrim is one of a handful of solar system barriers that Nixalite offers but the only solution specifically designed to beautify and protect solar arrays without the use of fasteners, screw or clips. SolaTrim aluminum panels are easily cut to fit and connect to the solar panels using a peel-and-stick acrylic foam adhesive for fast and simple installation. The adhesive SolaTrim uses has been tested for extreme weather conditions and is guaranteed to last for the life of the solar array. A typical installation can be completed in two to three hours, with Nixalite offering an aluminum cutting tool as a catalog accessory to SolaTrim.

“I am very impressed with the SolaTrim product; it is easy to install and has a clean attractive appearance,” said Cory A. Gellerstedt, President of Nixalite of America Inc. “Most importantly, SolaTrim is a very effective pest, bird, and debris barrier for solar panels. It will protect the investment of residential solar arrays by keeping the panels free of birds, rodents, and debris. I am happy to add SolaTrim to the Nixalite product line and see a great potential for this new product.”

“We are proud to have SolaTrim included in the Nixalite wholesale catalog,” said Bob Smith, co-founder and President of SolaTrim. “Nixalite has a reputation for offering some of the most innovative and effective bird and pest control products on the market and we are confident that Nixalite’s customers will love the quality and aesthetics of the SolaTrim protective barriers.”

SolaTrim is an all-weather aluminum barrier stiffened by design to resist warping or bending and diamond-stamped to facilitate airflow. The four-foot SolaTrim sheets can be easily trimmed to fit any rooftop solar array and is designed to prevent any damaging environmental impact to the area underneath the solar modules. It will permanently prevent birds and rodents from nesting under the solar array, which can cause damage to the solar systems.

Monofilament Leader Line DuraBlend from KastKing for 2016

Leave a comment

KastKing creates a highly abrasion resistant monofilament leader line material for tough conditions and toothy fish.

Garden City, Long Island, NY — Today in Garden City, Long Island NY, KastKing a division of Eposeidon, Inc., unveiled KastKing DuraBlend Monofilament Leader Line, an exceptional product based on a specific fishing need for their 2016 model lineup.

KastKing® DuraBlend Monofilament LeaderLine has more abrasion resistance than other mono leader line or monofilament fishing line without sacrificing suppleness or clarity. It also ensures superior knot strength and knot tying ability.

“We were approached by quite a few charter captains who had been using our KastKing® fishing line products and were pleased with KastKing®’s performance at a much lower price point than other brands. Many of them run charters for wreck fishing or bottom fishing around rough structure. They asked if we could produce a monofilament leader in heavier gauges. We realized that breakoffs get expensive after a while for captains and guides, adding to their operating costs. In addition to supplying them with leader line material in pound tests they requested, we worked on abrasion resistance developed through new technology…an important factor for fishing around structure. We also addressed the issue of knot-ability, which is essential for tying rigs and snelling hooks. And, like everything else at KastKing®, we kept the price per yard down.”

KastKing® DuraBlend Monofilament Leader line comes in 120 yard/ 110 meter spools in: 20 lb./ 9 kg., 25 lb./ 11.3 kg., 30 lb. / 13.6 kg. , 40 lb. / 18.1 kg., 50 lb. / 22.6 kg., 60 lb. / 27.2 kg./, and 80 lb. / 36.2 kg. test. MSRP20 lb. – 40 lb. $9.98 USD, 50 lb. – 80 lb. $10.98 USD.

“In the everyday fishing world, discussions about mono line often involve little enthusiasm. Rightfully, so. There have been very few new concepts for monofilament fishing line products introduced over the last few decades. KastKing® DuraBlend Monofilament Leader line has changed that. At KastKing® we produce fishing tackle products with input from the fishing community. DuraBlend is a material that the fishing community is getting excited about. Anglers are sitting up and taking notice!” says Tae Cui, CEO at Eposeidon, Inc.

KastKing® DuraBlend Monofilament Leader line will be discounted and priced in the eight to nine dollar range through http://www.eposeidon.com, Amazon.com, and other exclusive online retailers. KastKing® is an ICAST 2015 Best of Show award winning brand.
