Ingen Technologies, Inc. (IGNT), which provides innovative "SMART" oxygen nasal cannulas to home care providers similar to Lincare Holdings (LNCR) and Cardinal Health, Inc. (CAH), is closing $1.4M in recent orders, with a substantial revenue increase on the horizon
YUCAIPA, Calif., May 21, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ingen Technologies, Inc. (Pink Sheets:IGNT), a leading manufacturer of respiratory medical devices, recently announced that CEO Scott Sand will be interviewed on The Money Channel's American Scene Radio with host Steve Crowley next Wednesday at 11:06 AM eastern daylight time.
Sand will discuss the new IngenCare product for the $2 trillion drug therapy market expected to be released in August. With the provisional patent filed and production expected in June, the product includes a special container with polymer-crystals that will keep drugs, such as insulin, cool and dry for more than 12 hours while on the go. It is compact, durable and temperature resistant. The polymer-crystals can be reused over and over. Polymer crystals are one of those special items that are almost magical. Polymer crystals gel very similar to a gelatin dessert. Refrigeration ahead of time is not necessary, but it does help extend the cooling time. The same polymer crystals can be rehydrated many times. In addition, Sand will discuss the newest patent on a cannula that will change various colors depending upon flow rate. This new innovative material is embedded into the actual PVC tubing and changes color with various flow rates. "This new product will literally corner the market and revolutionize the meaning of the Smart-Cannula," stated Scott Sand.
The company was recently featured at the MedTrade-Spring in Las Vegas, and has $1.4M in recent orders with back orders exceeding another $1.5M. Ingen's recent successes and changes come during a restructuring in order to align incentives with that of its shareholders. The company is keenly focused on growth, open communication, and leadership by example, as it works diligently to expand its sales and deliver shareholder value.
"Ingen is on the verge of tremendous growth, after enduring a number of regulatory and economic obstacles. In the face of economic headwinds, the company obtained both FDA and ISO Certification and launched several new and inspiring medical products in the respiratory market. As a result of this success, we have attracted many investors and new shareholders," stated Mr. Sand in a recent statement to the shareholders. He further stated," Ingen has developed a global perspective on the markets in which we compete, inclusive of a thorough market study, securing valuable intellectual property, properly registering our products with the FDA and securing ISO 13485 Certification, CE Mark and distribution partners in order to comply with the world markets for distribution of our medical products."
