Program, part of the Green Plan. Halozone's strategy is to proceed with
commercialization, sub-licensing, royalties and joint venture partnerships.
Marketing Strategy
Marketing is local and global, and is largely fueled by refrigerant and methyl
bromide regulations. In addition to the products, services and programs
mentioned previously, Halozone will install scaled-up or scaled-down versions
of its Toronto reclamation facility — along with accompanying products and
services — in other geographic locations.
Thermco continues to pursue a "pay-back" strategy in selling its Terminator
technology. The overall package is designed to either reduce long-term costs or
generate revenue for the client, and to allow for self-financed conversion to
CFC alternatives. This is made possible by Thermco's Refrigerant Banking
System. Excess refrigerant, fully recovered with the Blue Bottle, may either be
banked for later use by the client or continually sold and recycled in domestic
and international markets with the client receiving dividend payments, almost
as a shareholder. Client savings, or revenue streams, are expected to rise as CFC
production is phased out internationally and the price of CFC refrigerants
continues to increase.
Halozone Technologies Inc. has developed and commercialized a family of
complementary products and services designed to recover, recycle, and reduce
the use of ozone damaging chemicals. Sales packages, tailored to the needs of
the specific end customer, may incorporate one or more of the technologies and
services offered by the company. Total system recovery of liquid and gaseous
CFCs, halons, and methyl bromide is available on-site to capture dilute
emissions, or to provide an alternative to venting during system repairs,
retrofits, and conversions. The reclamation facility brings recycled refrigerants
up to industry standards and re g e n e rates the capture equipment. T h e
Terminator and other Thermco technologies reduce the use of CFC refrigerants,
while simultaneously trimming energy and maintenance costs.
As CFC emission regulations continue to become more restrictive in Canada
and internationally, Halozone's Blue Bottle technology, On-Site recovery units,
and Thermco Division technologies are well positioned to assist numerous
business sectors to comply with the Montreal Protocol.
Key Lessons Learned
• A changing, but pre d i c t a b l e , re g u l a t o ry env i ronment provides an
opportunity to offer new technologies as they are required.
