TerraTherm, Inc. Honored With Gold Medal for Outstanding Achievement in Remediation Contracting


FITCHBURG, MA--(Marketwire - February 5, 2009) - TerraTherm, Inc., a rapidly growing provider of environmental remediation technologies and services, today announced that it has been awarded the prestigious 2008 Gold Medal for Business Achievement by The Environmental Business Journal (EBJ). The EBJ cited TerraTherm's growth in revenue, profitability, increasing backlog and recent project wins in its award summary, pointing to the company's 38% increase in revenue in 2008, and projected 100% increase in 2009, based on awarded backlog.

"We are thrilled to receive this gold medal award from the EBJ. Our growth is a reflection of rising marketplace awareness that in situ thermal remediation technologies are cost-effective, mature and capable of addressing even the most complex sites. We are gratified that adoption has been spurred by our record of successful projects and grateful to our excellent project partners and clients around the world who make it all possible," said Dr. Ralph Baker, CEO of TerraTherm, Inc.

The EBJ notes that TerraTherm's success can be attributed to the growing popularity of its Thermal Conduction Heating (TCH), advanced Electrical Resistance Heating (ERH), and Steam Enhanced Extraction (SEE) technologies, which can be applied alone or in combination to solve complex source remediation problems over a wide range of sites and contaminants. TerraTherm has established a significant global presence with offices in Fitchburg, MA, Keene, CA, and Atlanta, GA, project sites in the US, Europe, Japan, and Brazil and technology licensees including Kruger A/S in Denmark and Sweden, AIG Engineering in the UK, and SheGoTec in Japan.
