Press Release

NALBACH ENGINEERING COMPANY RECEIVES PATENT ON NEXT GENERATION HIGH-SPEED
PLASTIC BOTTLE UNSCRAMBLER.

Countryside, IL (USA). October, 2006.

On October 10, 2006 Nalbach Engineering Company was awarded U.S. patent 7,117,987 for its next
generation high-speed plastic bottle unscrambler.

The trade name for this system is NECOSORT-III.

The NECOSORT-III’s patented design employs a sorting drum that is turned vertically, significantly reducing the overall footprint of the system and has only two moving parts providing significantly less maintenance and downtime when compared to older technology systems.

According to John C. Nalbach, President of Nalbach Engineering Company and the inventor of the NECOSORT-III, “The first NECOSORT-III was installed in April of 2005 to sort feed 500 ml water bottles at a rate of 600 bottles per minute. Since then we have sold over $3.9 million of these systems and have released 4 different models of the NECOSORT-III, the fastest running at 1,000 bottles per minute.”

Nalbach also states, “All our customers to date are multi-billion dollar multinational companies and are leaders in their respective industries. It is very satisfying to see these world class companies selecting our next generation technology to help them improve efficiencies and reduce cost.”

Nalbach Engineering is also in the middle of a plant expansion to meet the growing demand for the NECOSORT-III. This expansion will increase the area of their manufacturing plant by 50% and is slated to be completed in December of 2006.
