LAS VEGAS, Dec. 7, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The investment community appears to be starting to take note of Axion International Holdings' (OTCBB:AXIH) proprietary recycling and building material technology as evidenced by CNNMoney's recent feature story on the company. CNN's story on Axion, which has already separated itself from many in the space via successful bridge projects with the U.S. Army, examines the transformation of plastics that would normally be destined to sit in a landfill for decades before decomposing and turns those same plastics into attractive alternatives to traditional building products.
It is worth noting that the mainstream financial media rarely covers companies that don't possess enormous market caps so it's fair to say Axion's appearance on CNNMoney is a significant coup. Additionally, exposure to CNNMoney's enormous audience is both an opportunity to cultivate new shareholders as well as an affirmation that the company's unique technology stands tall in a rapidly growing industry.
Factor in the fact that companies of all sizes are trying to "go green" and do so in a cost-efficient manner and it is clear that Axion has the potential to be one of the more noteworthy players in the green/recycling sector. It's also safe to assume that the CNN feature should be helpful in the company's general business prospecting as should the U.S. Army bridge projects.
The media spotlight on Axion is certainly relative to the vast interest in recycling and green technology and it stands to follow that the company's blend of proven success and innovative technology in what appears to be an enormous market opportunity warrants the interest of both the media and investors. It will be indeed be interesting to see how Axion and its technology capitalize on this momentum.
