JBI Inc to acquire US air filtration company

15 February 2010

JBI Inc has signed a letter of intent to acquire an unnamed US air filtration and custom air ventilation company that has strong links with the US Army Corp of Engineers, a number of Federal agencies and the healthcare industry.

The company, which designs and installs customized, energy efficient air handling and air filtration systems, is privately owned and profitable and had revenues of approximately US$15 million in 2008 and in 2009. The owners have requested that the company’s name not be disclosed until the definitive agreement has been executed.

John Bordynuik, JBI CEO and president, said: “This is really a synergistic, value-added acquisition that truly complements our business model and corporate growth goals. In addition to our core product line, these products have very high growth potential and excellent profit margins. The company’s IP is protected through a patent. Initially, we will utilize our media credits to launch an extensive public-awareness campaign to market our green product line to consumers and retailers in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.”
