Inhibitor Protects Engineered Wood; Adds to EcoBlu’s Mold, Rot-Decay
and Termite Shield
EcoBlu
Products, Inc. (OTCBB: ECOB), provider of eco-friendly, protected wood
products, has signed an exclusive licensing agreement with fire protection
supplier Megola, (Pinksheets: MGOA), adding to the company’s
proprietary BLUWOOD™ technology which protects wood from the harmful
effects of mold, rot- decay and termites. The exclusive partnership enables
EcoBlu to protect both dimensional lumber and engineered wood against
another devastating threat – fire.
As a part
of the agreement, EcoBlu has acquired the exclusive rights to
Megola’s Hartindo AF21 Fire Inhibitor in North America. as an
additive to EcoBlu’s BLUWOOD™ technology. Hartindo AF21
provides Class A fire protection for dimensional lumber, panels and
engineered wood products.

addition to protecting wood from mold, termites, wood-rot and now fire,
this agreement provides EcoBlu with a comprehensive solution able to
address the long-standing problem of the increased flammability of
engineered wood products,” said Steve Conboy, President and CEO of
EcoBlu Products, Inc.
The
increased flammability of Engineered Wood Products versus natural
dimensional wood products has caused concern among Industry leaders, fire
protection advocates and project designers. Demand for engineered wood
products continues to grow due to their strength, cost effectiveness and
the lack of mature dimensional lumber. Protecting engineered wood from fire
will mitigate this threat to safety and support further growth for
engineered products.

leader in this important building products category and have the expertise
and capacity to grow swiftly,” said Joel Gardner, president and CEO
of Megola, Inc.

Why are EcoBlu Products So Green?
When you
build with EcoBlu products, you are doing your part for a sustainable
environment. Our products are coated with a non-toxic, eco-friendly
solution that has less Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) than a can of soda!
-
EcoBlu Products protect against termites so you will not ever
have to ‘tent’ your home and use harmful chemicals and gases to kill
termites and other insects that are damaging the ozone layer faster than
automotive exhaust. -
When you use EcoBlu products to protect your home, you will
never have to replace any wood from loss to mold or wood rot again! You
will be saving our forests. -
EcoBlu coatings are non-toxic and will not leach into the
ground water. -
EcoBlu products are fire retardant – you will reduce the risk
of losing your home to fire and protect our forests at the same time! The
San Diego wildfires alone consumed over 6,000 truckloads of lumber!
EcoBlu
products reduce consumption by using technology to create a life-long wood
product.
Build Smarter with EcoBlu Products
available for building homes or businesses. Here’s why.
-
Non-wood products are environmentally expensive. The supplies
of ores and petroleum for their production are finite; once gone, they are
gone forever. Wood, on the other hand, is a renewable resource. Non-wood
products require far more energy to manufacture than wood: for example -
nine times as much for a steel stud as for a wood stud. -
Wood is reusable, recyclable and biodegradable. Inorganic
materials not only require excessive energy to produce, but also to recycle
or dispose of when their use has been terminated. -
Growing just one pound of wood in a vigorous younger forest
removes 1.47 pounds of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and replaces it
with 1.07 pounds of life-sustaining oxygen. Carbon dioxide accounts for
about half of the world’s greenhouse gases, a contributor to
global-warming.
Mold, Fungus, Rot & Decay
Molds are
fungi that can be found both indoors and outdoors. Estimates range from
tens of thousands to perhaps three hundred thousand species of mold. Molds
grow best in warm, damp, humid conditions, and reproduce by making spores.
Mold spores can survive harsh environmental conditions.
Exposure to
molds can cause symptoms such as nasal stuffiness, eye irritation,
wheezing, or skin irritation, chronic lung illnesses,such as obstructive
lung disease.
- A Brown
University study found a link between depression and household
mold. - 1000
species of mold are common in the U.S. - There are
currently 10,000 mold-related lawsuits pending in the U.S. - Mold-related claims now average $3-$8 billion
annually. - Mold-related claims average $15,000 to $30,000.
- 66% of
builders are concerned about health issues related to mold and nearly 75%
have significant concerns about being sued as a result of mold
issues. - Insurance
that once cost contractors $15,000 now routinely costs $150,000 and does
not cover mold or water damage. - Homeowners
insurance usually excludes or limits claims due to mold-related
damage.
Termites
Termites
populate every state in the United States. Hawaii has the highest
concentration of infestation with 15.1% of the houses being victims.
Georgia tops the list in the continental US, where 5.5% of residential
homes are affected. The national average is 2.3%.
- Homeowners
pay over $2 billion per year to replace wood damaged by fungal decay and
termites. - The
average amount homeowners pays $11,400 to repair a home damaged by Formosan
termites.
Fire
2007 Fires,
Civilian Deaths and Injuries, and Property Loss
- Fires
1,557,500 - Civilian
deaths 3,430 - Civilian
injuries 17,675 - Property
loss $14.6 billion
530,500
fires occurred in structures
414,000
fires, or 78 percent, of all structure fires occurred in residential
properties.
Every 20
seconds, a fire department responds to a fire somewhere in the
nation.
A fire
occurs in a structure at the rate of one every 59 seconds, and in
particular, a residential fire occurs every 76 seconds.

been on an upswing since around the end of October when it bottomed out
around $.20. since that time it has reached as high as $.45. ECOB has good
support between $.30 and $.32. The price chart, MACD, and Stochastics
