TAVA Technologies Will Jointly Develop Products for the Paper Industry With Coors-Wilbanks of ACX Technologies ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Sept. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- TAVA Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: TAVA - news) today announced that it has signed a Letter of Intent with Coors-Wilbanks (Hillsboro, OR) to jointly develop integrated control system solutions for paper industry applications.

Coors-Wilbanks, part of ACX Technologies, Inc., (NYSE: ACX - news) is a leader in providing engineered de-watering equipment and systems for high-speed paper machines. The first of these ''results-oriented'' control system products is expected to provide advanced process visibility and tangible improvements in paper quality with resulting financial benefits for paper industry customers. The companies believe that the cooperative development effort will leverage their existing technical strengths. It will be complemented with joint sales and marketing programs to accelerate industry introduction. John Jenkins, CEO of TAVA, said ''We are pleased to have reached this accord with an industry leader like Coors-Wilbanks. While the opportunity to create new control system products for the paper industry is exciting in its own right, this move underscores TAVA's strategic long-term objective to create manufacturing execution solutions that provide our customers with measurable gains in both product quality and profitability. This commercial alliance exploits the core competencies of both companies and will serve as a model for similar TAVA initiatives in the future.''
