MonoSol LLC Wins 2006 Techpoint Mira Award

May 25th, 2006 – MonoSol LLC, the world leader in developing and commercializing specialty water soluble products, announced today that it won the Techpoint Mira Award. As Indiana 's largest and most influential technology organization, Techpoint hosts the Mira Awards to recognize companies that have made outstanding contributions to technology, fueled the economy and generated global recognition.

“At MonoSol, innovation is the cornerstone of our business so it’s especially rewarding to be recognized for our contributions to technology,” noted P. Scott Bening , President and CEO of MonoSol. “Our business strategy is to partner with prospective customers to co-develop new products and new applications for water soluble products. By providing a total-solutions approach, we open doors that allow us to develop some very practical solutions to some very interesting challenges.

” Two of the latest products introduced by MonoSol – the F-100 Edible Ingredient Film and the TerraLOC™ family of dust abatement products – are prime examples of what can come from MonoSol’s drive to innovate.

The new F-100 Edible-Ingredient Film, made of FDA-approved ingredients, was developed for unit-dose packaging of dry ingredients used in mixing and batching operations within the food processing industry. Packaging food ingredients in pouches of MonoSol’s edible film improves the accuracy of mixing operations and enhances convenience. 

TerraLOC™ is a new family of products used as dust palliatives, soil erosion control and anchoring agents developed to be used on unpaved roads, mines, airfields, helipads, commercial and residential construction sites, road constructions sites and other military and civilian locations. It can also be used to prevent asbestos to be airborne during demolition operations.

MonoSol’s comprehensive growth strategy combines organic expansion and strategic acquisitions that support new product and new application development. The company recently relocated its world headquarters to Merrillville , Indiana , USA and expanded its extensive laboratories and R&D capabilities in Portage , Indiana , USA .
