Palmer, MA – (July 2010) Creative Material Technologies, Ltd (CMT) is highly aware of the depleted working capital in the spray on bed liner industry. In the past, high volume minimum orders, franchising buy-in costs, and specialized equipment often created a reduced profit scenario for the installer and certainly poses even more financial stress in today’s truck bed liner coatings market.

“The automotive aftermarket we have known has experienced a fundamental, non-cyclical change, even if the industry has yet to come to terms with it,” commented John C. Becker IV, President and chemist at CMT. “With unemployment numbers persistently at historically high levels and small business capitalization in short supply, the spray on bed liner industry needs to be installer success driven, not supplier profit driven.”

Indeed, installers that are locked into a supplier business model that worked in the last century will find it difficult to survive in the new economic reality. In response to this insight, CMT has reformulated its proprietary truck bed liner coatings to simultaneously reduce per unit costs, reduce capitalization requirements, increase application options while continuing its commitment to protect the installer, their workers and the environment. Utilizing CMT’s GREEN product’s makes it a win-win business.

CMT’s multiple breakthroughs in the economics for this part of the automotive aftermarket industry now make it possible to install a short and long bed polyurethane hybrid liner without sacrificing “the farm,” profitability, quality, safety or health.

Using the Liner Solution Spray On Bed Liner means no minimum orders and a lower per unit cost achieved through a breakthrough in the chemistry which allows “stop 'n go” capabilities with the same static mixer, thus saving even more money on the accessories.

CMT has also developed a way to minimize overspray, saving spray time and labor, clean up time and labor, and saving money on wasted product which needlessly reduces the profitability of every truck bed liner coating job.

With more than 30 patents between them, CMT’s R&D personnel have over 70 years of coating formulation and over 22 years specializing in formulating 100% solids, eco-friendly, coating systems in the Polyurea based coatings industry. CMT’s technologies enable some market leaders to do what others consider “impossible” and empowering those on the leading edge to make money where their competition cannot.

With a multitude of coating formulations designed specifically to address the unique requirements of different applications, CMT is able to assist customers in solving real world problems with high-performance product solutions for the homeowner, professional installer, OEM and aftermarket customers.

(CMT), a local manufacturer of high performance, zero VOC coatings for multiple applications, is proud to announce that they have been chosen by the Polyurea Development Association as the winner of the prestigious 2005 PDA Platinum Technology Development Award.

The Polyurea Development Association (PDA) is the trade association for the international community of polyurea equipment manufacturers, polyurea system suppliers, and polyurea applicators.

The PDA Platinum Technology Development Award is geared toward advancements in polyurea technology, and recognizes the most significant development in the polyurea industry in the past year. While new polyurea formulations, new technology and application innovations are all candidates for this award, CMT has designed and manufactured a new piece of equipment which can spray two component polyurea systems with low pressure, either heated or unheated. This lower cost two-component spray machine will allow many more applicators to enter the industry and apply high performance polyurea coatings. The equipment, titled “Voyager”, uses novel pump technology to solve current application equipment problems. Patents are pending. Developments were judged on beneficial contributions to the polyurea industry and the depth of effect on the polyurea industry, as well as the uniqueness and innovativeness of the development.

Rapt Attention Given to Creative Material Technologies President, John C. Becker IV, at OSHA Regional Managers Meeting

Palmer, MA (March 12, 2007) Creative Material Technologies, Ltd. (CMT) President, John C. Becker IV, had the rapt attention of over 30 Administrators and assistant Administrators at the OSHA (Occupational Safety & Health Administration) Regional Managers Meeting in Newport, RI on March 1^st.

Becker's 90-minute presentation surrounding the spray-on bed liner industry brought such an avalanche of questions and discussion that the presentation was allowed to extend to two full hours. Becker had been invited by OSHA to speak on CMT's approach to providing safer chemistry and innovative application equipment to the bed liner industry, currently fraught with health and safety issues.

CrystaLiner™, the "Original Clear Bed Liner"™, caught the attention of OSHA due to the product being 100% aliphatic and 100% solids, with no solvents or VOC's and containing zero MDI in its formulation. In addition, CMT's Voyager Spray Pump was a focus as it affords the installer with an innovative and safer method of applying high performance coatings.

Three of OSHA's ten Regions have had ongoing Regional Emphasis Programs, regarding MDI exposure, in the spray on bed liner market.  It is expected that these Regional Emphasis Programs will be replaced with a National Emphasis Program aimed at reducing the MDI exposure health hazards that have been inherent in the spray-on bedliner industry.

Health hazards in spray-on bedliner applications include exposure to various solvents and a group of contaminants known as isocyanates. The most commonly used isocyanate is MDI, which has been linked to severe respiratory and health problems.

Right now, OSHA's goal is twofold:

1. To assist businesses those are having difficulty meeting existing safety standards

2. To enforce existing exposure limitations, thereby reducing employee exposures to these health and safety hazards

"An unfortunate truth is that the spray-on bed liner industry has not been very proactive in addressing the regulatory issues," Becker stated, and in answering the question as to why installers may not be voluntarily complying, Becker listed numerous problems:

• the lack of education and information on the products

• suppliers telling their installers that the chemistry is "just the way it is" and not pursuing safer chemistry options that may be available

• perceived inconsistencies in enforcement approaches

• a feeling of fear in believing that OSHA is the enemy when the real risk is their own material

"Installers face an even more difficult road to safety and reorganization," Becker went on to say. "Currently, there is no industry recognized certification or formal training program. In some cases installers have bought into the suppliers short term profit promise, thereby valuing dollars over quality and safety."

In addition to CrystaLiner, CMT offers a wide variety of spray on applications designed specifically to address the unique requirements of the homeowner, professional installer, and OEM customer. Formulations include roofs, foundations, decks, pond and pools, garage, commercial and industrial floors, foam, and an application specifically for detailers and mobile technicians. All formulations require no spray booth. CMT provides training and low cost spray equipment through Voyager Spray Systems for all applications. Dealer Inquiries welcome www.clearbedliner.com
