ipCapital Group Finds Integral to be the Indisputable IP Leader in Resin-Based Conductive Materials

BELLINGHAM, Wash., Oct 19, 2010 -- Integral Technologies, Inc. ("Integral"), (www.electriplast.com) today announces that ipCapital Group (www.ipcg.com) ("ipCapital"), a leading intellectual property (IP) strategy consulting firm, has completed a comprehensive study of Integral's IP portfolio related to its proprietary ElectriPlast™ technology.

"We found that Integral is the indisputable leader in the resin-based conductive materials field, with the most issued U.S. patents and published patent applications," said John Cronin, Managing Director of ipCapital. "This is an impressive finding, especially for a micro-cap company in a field of over 600 separate entities/companies that have filed patents across a wide range of product applications for resin-based conductive materials," continued Cronin.


"These findings suggest to us that there are endless opportunities for extracting value and monetizing Integral's core ElectriPlast™ technology and current and future IP," said Cronin. "Using the results of this recent IP landscape study, the continued alliance of Integral and ipCapital will optimize Integral's IP strategy to build further value for strategic partners, customers and shareholders.


"We are delighted to be working with John Cronin and his very accomplished team at ipCapital and excited with the findings, that point to Integral as the IP leader in this large and growing industry," said Integral's CEO, Bill Robinson. "From the filing of our first patent we have been committed to developing our technology, protecting our IP leadership and strengthening and expanding our patent portfolio."


"It is not difficult to understand why ipCapital concluded that ElectriPlast™ is the leader in this field," says CEO Robinson. "Integral's ElectriPlast™ technology represents a major breakthrough for electrically conductive resins. Independent tests have shown repeatedly that the ElectriPlast™ technology possesses superior electrical and electrostatic shielding properties compared to other conductive plastics over a wide frequency spectrum from Direct Current (DC) to Ultra-High frequency (UHF). It is unique among its competitors, which it outperforms by over 40%. It is as efficient as metal -- in some applications even more so -- yet is 40-60% lighter."


Robinson emphasized the importance to future sales of Integral's leading IP position and ElectriPlast™ unique characteristics: "Our current IP already encompasses a wide variety of processes and methods, which gives us superior leverage in the rapid global commercialization of ElectriPlast™. As a result of this game-changing technology, our position as the IP leader in the resin-based conductive materials field will turn us into a sales leader."

ElectriPlast: Baby Steps -- To Big Dreams...

The

Start of

Things...

Integral Announces ElectriPlast™ Shipment to Tier One Auto Supplier for Delivery to Leading Global Automaker.

BELLINGHAM, Wash. -- Integral Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:ITKG) (“Integral”), (http://www.itkg.net/) an emerging leader in electrically conductive plastics, announced today that one of the world’s leading automakers, through a Tier 1 automotive supplier, has ordered sample parts made from the company’s ElectriPlast™ material. The ElectriPlast™ part will allow them to meet weight goals for a 2012 model year car which will begin production in the first half of 2011.

Our ElectriPlast™ material has been approved by the Tier 1 as well as by the manufacturer. Integral has shipped initial quantities of its proprietary ElectriPlast™ resin pellets to the Tier 1 automobile parts supplier in order for them to mold and test parts. The ElectriPlast™ part would replace a metal part used to shield the car’s power electronics and provides a nearly 50% weight savings over the metal part currently being used, while also providing superior electrical shielding.

This delivery of sample parts is the first step towards shipping final product to the Tier 1 for inclusion in the final production model. 

William Robinson, Integral’s CEO, commented, “This is a tremendous opportunity and a major milestone for our company. We are excited about this for a variety of reasons, but what it boils down to is that we believe we can potentially gain traction quickly in a market segment that is very attractive for Integral. With over 60 million automobiles produced annually, worldwide, there is clearly an opportunity to generate substantial growth for our company with just a handful of design wins. Our goal is to have parts made from our material specified in more makes and models as we work at the same time to increase the number of parts made from ElectriPlast™ within each vehicle. We see an opportunity for multiple applications of ElectriPlast for shielding or conducting within the automobile of today and even more in the hybrid/electric vehicle of the future, the growth potential is enormous. Our first priority is to meet the needs of our earliest customers and then to increase awareness more broadly across the industry and up through the supply chain.”

ElectriPlast™ can replace metal in a multitude of parts ranging from battery covers, connectors and fuses, to shielded plugs and connectors. By utilizing ElectriPlast™ for shielding applications alone, manufacturers are able to reduce the weight of a vehicle by as much as fourteen pounds or more, while improving electrical shielding performance and reducing parts cost and shipping weight.

Robinson also stated, “We’ve worked very closely with our Tier 1 customer and others in the automobile industry to develop custom blends of material that are specifically designed to meet the needs of automobile manufacturers for multiple types of parts. “ “In this particular case, it’s worth noting that ElectriPlast™ was the only way for the manufacturer to meet their weight specification while also achieving the required electrical performance.“

According to Robinson, “automakers now have, for the first time, the opportunity to permanently replace heavy metal parts with lower cost, lighter weight and better performing, for either conducting or shielding ElectriPlast™ parts. The ElectriPlast™ pellets can be used to form parts of virtually any shape or size, providing design flexibility for engineers and enabling shorter development cycles that add to the savings for manufacturers. This is accomplished by the fact that ElectriPlast™ can easily be used in low cost injection molding or extrusion facilities with little or no change in dies or tooling.”

ElectriPlast™ has a multitude of uses in a variety of markets. Its electrical properties make it ideal for radio frequency antennae of all types, which is increasingly important in our broadband wireless world. Large market segments that share many of the same requirements of automobile manufacturers include aviation and aerospace where weight, durability and electrical shielding performance are always high priority design considerations.

ElectriPlast: Next Level Infastructure Introduced...Part II

News Release

 
 

 

EB Publisher's note:  In May 2010, ElectriPlast had it's first brush with MDB group when it was featured as Integral Technologies' showcase product at the "Bright Lights" stock conference.  ElectriPlast made an impact on the conference's sponsors, so much so that they, like ipCapital Group (featured in the June 2010 collector's edition of the EB), have fallen in line to enhance the foundation supporting ElectriPlast's pending rise beyond, and blast though, the glass ceiling that has held the company back, and stymied its stock growth...rest assured, while it may not seem like much at this time--the movement described in the press release below will be looked upon as a lynchpin highlighting a lackluster trend which will soon come to an end.

So, as a reminder, to all concerned -- and as a friend recently was recently kind 'nuf to remind me:

"IP Capital is protecting and obtaining new patents for us. They are directly involved in our IP.

MDB Capital are the investment bankers and will be representing us to Wall St, hedge funds, big investors, etc. When additional funding is needed MDB will be directly involved with those matters."

With that, I hope this helps to put things into perspective as you digest the accompanying announcement -- PK sends...
