FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CHICAGO, June 17, 2011 – Shield Technologies Corporation, makers of the leading anti-corrosion product Envelop Protective Covers, today announced the retention of KemperLesnik as public relations agency of record.
In this role, KemperLesnik will build the Shield Technologies brand among target audiences by implementing media relations programs to generate awareness of Envelop Protective Covers technology, proven performance and cost savings. KemperLesnik will also establish and maintain a social media program and support communication efforts of Shield Technologies’ corrosion experts.
“Shield Technologies is an established and proven performer, assisting the U.S. military in the protection of its vital equipment from corrosion and other climatological conditions,” said Barnaby Dinges, vice president of KemperLesnik. “KemperLesnik looks forward to working with Shield Technologies to further position Envelop Protective Covers for greater military and industrial applications, both in the U.S. and abroad.”
Shield Technologies CEO Samuel Wm. Sax said: “The GAO reports annual corrosion costs of the US Military in excess of $20-billion, corrosion that negatively affects the readiness of our equipment and forces in the field. Shield Technologies’ patented Envelop Protective Covers reduce corrosion by 90 percent and protect assets from the adverse effects of heat, rain, UV, dust and sand. We look forward to working with KemperLesnik to further educate key audiences about our cost-saving and perhaps life-saving products and technology.”
