CINCINNATI, OH--(Marketwire - June 18, 2009) - Cold Jet,
the world leader in dry ice blast cleaning and production technology,
today announced a partnership with Applied Products, Inc., a complete
assembly and process solutions company based in Minnetonka, Minn. Applied
Products focuses on incorporating adhesives, dispensing equipment, assembly
automation, production tools, and engineering into one synergistic business
resource. As cleaning and maintenance are critical to any manufacturing and
assembly operation, Applied Products will now work with Cold Jet to
exclusively market and sell Cold Jet's dry ice blast cleaning systems to
its growing base of customers and suppliers.
"As an assembly and process solutions provider, our customers rely on us to
deliver value to their manufacturing and assembly operations," said Bill
Bushman, national sales manager for Applied Products. "We do this by
helping them reduce their 'cost' to manufacture their products. This
includes keeping their lines running as efficiently as possible. With Cold
Jet, we can now provide a cleaning solution that will help them reduce
maintenance downtime and scrap, increase throughput and improve product
quality. Add it all up and we just took 'cost' out of the product."
Applied Products chose to partner with Cold Jet over other competitive
products due to the company's leadership position and diverse product line.
Among Cold Jet's family of dry ice blasting systems is the recently announced i3MicroClean for precision and controlled
environment applications, and the Aero Series,
designed to provide mobile, efficient, economical and environmentally
responsible support for the most difficult cleaning challenges.
"For nearly 40 years, Applied Products has proven that it is able to help
engineer and solve any type of adhesive, thermal or assembly application
problem," said Brian Allen, vice president, North American sales for Cold
Jet, LLC. "The company's experienced staff of sales executives, adhesive
chemists, technical service support, customer service specialists, and
dedicated operations team members work with customers to provide innovative
solutions to their product and assembly needs. This is a great fit for
Cold Jet as Applied Products partners with the world's leading
manufacturers and works with customers that can truly benefit from our dry
ice blast cleaning technology."
Bushman added, "What we found in Cold Jet was a company that pays attention
to detail, in its product, training, marketing and service. A bonus was the
fact that the systems are made right here in the United States. At Applied
Products, our motto is to 'Deliver Value Beyond Expectation' and one of the
best ways to accomplish this is by partnering with the leaders in their
respective discipline. With Cold Jet, we have a partner who is the market
leader in dry ice blasting equipment, in quality and in experience."
Cold Jet's dry ice blasting systems use recycled CO2 in the form of
non-abrasive dry ice pellets or particles for a variety of cleaning
applications. Dry ice blasting has proven effective in cleaning adhesive
dispensing and manufacturing equipment, and assembly tools and automation
equipment without using harmful chemicals and traditional manual scrubbing
methods. The dry ice media, blasted at supersonic speeds, sublimates upon
impact with the surface being cleaned, lifting away dirt and contaminants
without leaving behind any secondary waste. Dry ice blasting is a dry
process and is therefore also safe to use on electric wiring and
components.
