Full Circle Unveils Nth Degree(SM), Its On-Site Refrigerant Solution And Announces Plans to Make Atlanta Its 11th Market Served
FORT WORTH, Texas, Jan. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- EVTC, Inc. t/a Environmental Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: EVTC - news) announced today that it has re-branded its on-site services, which will now be known as Full Circle's - Nth Degree(SM). The new Nth Degree(SM) brand is part of Full Circle's continuing enhancement and integration of Refrigerant Management Services, Inc., the on-site refrigerant services group acquired by EVTC in May of 2000. Full Circle will continue to expand its team of EPA certified recovery technicians, and its fleet of customized trucks using EPA and Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (ARI) certified equipment, to provide on-site refrigerant recovery, testing and distribution services. Full Circle unveiled the new branding campaign on a working, fully equipped, on-site service truck at the Company's exhibit space at ASHRAE 2001.
Full Circle also announced that Atlanta will be the 11th market served by the Company's Nth Degree(SM) services. Full Circle currently provides its on-site Nth Degree(SM) refrigerant services in Houston, Dallas/Fort Worth, Sacramento, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Grand Rapids/Lansing, Phoenix, Tucson and Chicago. Full Circle's Nth Degree(SM) plans to have complete nationwide coverage by the end of 2001.
In making the announcement, EVTC President David Keener stated, ``Full Circle's Nth Degree(SM) will establish the first nationwide ''one stop`` refrigerant solution that is economically viable. We've developed the only EPA compliant, ''face-to-face`` refrigerant handling and management services for an industry that has struggled to find a consistent and reliable solution for this problem. Distributors, wholesalers, service contractors, and large corporate users all face a similar set of refrigerant related issues, including regulatory compliance, increasing costs for labor and a marketplace that only provides fragmented solutions. Full Circle's approach integrates a complete service and product offerings, making it possible for customers to have a single source solution for all their refrigerant needs.''
The focal point of Full Circle's Nth Degree(SM) solution is a highly skilled and EPA certified recovery technician(s) making on-site visits in a technologically advanced medium-duty truck that is literally a refrigerant ``Lab on Wheels.'' Deployed on strategic routes, or available for immediate ``on-call'' situations in each market served, the recovery technician(s) and truck are able to provide on-site refrigerant services without the delay and labor expense normally associated with this process. Each truck contains an array of sophisticated equipment: a gas chromatograph, a wireless point of sale system, a digital scale for weighing cylinders and tanks, multiple refrigerant recovery units, a self-contained power supply and a variety of other devices needed for on-site work. On-site services include: recovery right at a customer's job-site or refrigerant recovery from cylinders at a customer's shop, refrigerant testing and analysis with on-board gas chromatographs, cylinder re-certification, and cylinder rentals and sales. The Company also handles all EPA refrigerant related documentation for its customers and proctors EPA certification tests for technicians, making compliance simple and practical.
Jason McCann, EVTC's Executive VP added, ``Nth Degree(SM) has become part of Full Circle's corporate culture, with commitments from each employee, director, manager and the Board of Directors to provide the highest level of service possible; to the Nth Degree(SM).'' |
