Hy-Power Wins Brampton Outstanding Business Achievement Award for Innovation
BRAMPTON, ON, May 10, 2013 /CNW/ - Hy-Power has been awarded the 2013 Brampton Outstanding Business Achievement Award (BOBAA) of Distinction for Innovation for the development of its Hy-Power Nano Clear Liquid Solar Blocker, created using a patent pending nanotechnology product and manufacturing process.
"We are thrilled to win Brampton's Award for Innovation," says Joseph Grzyb, President and CEO of Hy-Power. "Several years ago, we recognized the potential impact of nanotechnology for ourselves and our customers, and have developed a Canadian first in a solar blocker coating that is so clear you can't see it on glass. It blocks ultraviolet (UV) rays and infrared (IR) rays, while providing industry leading visual light transmission (VLT). Companies that use our solar blocker will experience greater indoor comfort, energy savings and will eliminate sun damage to interior furnishings and inventory, while maintaining an unobstructed view through windows day or night."
"It's been an exciting journey and we appreciate the recognition of our achievements. Our solar blocker is 100% eco-friendly and can be applied on-site to the interior of existing windows, transforming old glass into performing like new. We can substantially reduce the carbon footprint of buildings at a significantly lower cost than window replacement, as well as overcome the major challenges of using plastic film. It's generating a lot of positive feedback in the field and fits into the triple bottom line benefit of what sustainable business is all about today," adds Grzyb.
The Award of Distinction for Innovation is presented to a company that has successfully developed and implemented an innovtive product, process, service or idea to improve the efficiency of their business.
