In his new position, Dr. Riemer will be responsible for the growing
engineering team at Sono-Tek, and for leading Sono-Tek in the development
of new business in the food technology area. Many food production processes
involve the use of traditional spray nozzles to apply low dose
antimicrobial agents to both food products and food packaging and
containers, as well as nutriceutical coatings directly on foods. Many of
these applications would benefit from Sono-Tek's ultrasonic atomization and
Nanotechnology capabilities. Sono-Tek has helped numerous clients in
reducing the amount of liquid material required by reducing overspray, with
the additional benefit of producing thinner, more precisely controlled
coatings of greater uniformity. These technological advantages of Sono-Tek
systems provide Sono-Tek's customers both cost and environmental benefits
over traditional spraying and coating systems.
According to Dr. Christopher L. Coccio, Sono-Tek's CEO and President,
"The addition of Dr. Riemer to our team is a continuation of our efforts
and willingness to put in place resources that could lead to significant
growth of the business over the next several years".
