MTIX Ltd. Completes First Phase of Installation of MLSE(R) Platform for PANGAIA
8:00 am ET April 11, 2022 (BusinessWire) Print
Avalanche International, Corp d/b/a MTIX International (OTC: AVLP) (the "Company"), the parent of MTIX Ltd., the developer and owner of the patented Multiplexed Laser Surface Enhancement(R) ("MLSE(R)") technology, today announced the completion of the physical installation of its latest MLSE(R) platform in Manhente, Portugal, for MTIX Ltd. ("MTIX"). This digital finishing platform is licensed to PANGAIA, a prominent materials science company. The machine was first delivered to the Manhente facility in November 2021.
The initial application of MTIX's technical textile treatment for PANGAIA will contain neither perfluorooctanoic acid ("PFOA") nor perfluorooctane sulfonic acid ("PFOS") for PANGAIA's panoply of apparel, which since 2019 has gained global recognition. PFOA and PFOS are chemicals commonly used in the textile industry for finishing fabrics to make them water resistant. The textile industry is the world's second largest commercial source of pollution, surpassed only by the oil industry.
Phil Mansour, the CEO of the Company, said, "We are very excited to work with PANGAIA, not just as a licensee, but as a partner in the materials science space. PANGAIA, like MTIX, Ltd. is committed to providing the world with environmentally friendly solutions in fashion." Mr. Mansour further noted that, "Our collaborative efforts with PANGAIA have already begun to bear fruit, beginning with a winning entry in the Conservation X Lab's Microfiber Innovation Challenge." Mr. Mansour continued, "Transforming the finishing process from analog to digital allows our scientists to create, adjust and deploy process algorithms to a planned global network of MLSE(R) Systems. Solutions like microfiber mitigation can be added to other finishing characteristics in moments with no hardware or line changeovers, at the licensee's request."
The Microfiber Innovation Challenge, which was "calling on genii" to find solutions to the world's micro-plastics problem in the textile industry, recognized five companies as winners and awarded them cash prizes to support the commercialization of their solutions. The MTIX/PANGAIA entry was selected by a panel of judges representing the clothing industry, materials scientists, conservationists and investors based on criteria including feasibility, potential for growth, environmental impact and the novelty of their approach.
Upon announcing the winners of the Microfiber Innovation Challenge, Pravin Mistry, the CEO of MTIX, stated that "PANGAIA is our first licensee dedicated to the fashion industry. We are honored to collaborate with such a successful and dynamic, eco-centric enterprise."
Dr. Amanda Parkes, Chief Innovation Officer of PANGAIA stated, "MTIX's MLSE(R) technology is a truly revolutionary and disruptive technology with many exciting areas of application. Through our partnership, we will create next-generation, sustainable solutions for the fashion space."
This installed digital finishing system will undergo final testing, configuration, and training, prior to fully operational commissioning. The Company projects these final processes to be completed in Q2 2022.
