MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, July 30, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- KMA Global Solutions International, Inc. (OTCBB:KMAG) (Frankfurt:VVS) announces today the successful completion of testing of a high speed packaging line for a major over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceutical client, with a commitment to purchase up to $5 million of KMA's Dual Tag annually.
The Dual Tag will be added to the packaging of the leading pharmaceutical client's popular OTC leading brands, as part of its source tagging program. KMA has worked closely with the packaging partner and have successfully completed high speed testing on their folder gluer lines that allow for substantial savings to the OTC pharmaceutical brand.
KMA's patent pending Dual Tag provides theft protection through its innovative combination of two leading Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) technologies in a single application. Packaging companies consider the Dual Tag to be a major innovation for their industry as applying the two separate EAS technologies reduces production efficiencies by over 50%. This dual technology eliminates inventory costs associated with duplicate inventories carrying different EAS labels and allows the OTC pharmaceutical products to be sold at any of its leading retailers.
Jeffrey D. Reid, Chief Executive Officer of KMA Global Solutions International, Inc., commented, "The ability to apply the Dual Tag at high speeds without affecting the packaging equipment is the key to shifting the market to adopt the Dual Tag. The advantage of carrying product inventory containing a security label with both EAS technologies has become widely accepted as a significant cost savings to the brand owner."
