Itronics
Receives GOLD'n GRO Guardian Deer Repellent Registration From the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
RENO,
NV--(MARKET WIRE)--Mar 27, 2008 -- Itronics Inc. (OTC BB:ITRO.OB
- News) (Frankfurt:ITG.F - News) (Berlin:ITG.BE - News) today reported
that its wholly owned subsidiary Itronics Metallurgical, Inc. has
received label registration for GOLD'n GRO Guardian deer repellent
from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
With
notification of registration of GOLD'n GRO Guardian deer repellent,
registration statements will be filed in Nevada and Northeastern
states where the Company plans to start marketing the deer repellent.
Plans are being implemented for manufacturing, marketing, and sales
launch in May, 2008.
"Receipt
of this bio-pesticide label registration is the result of several
years of intensive, successful product development," said Dr.
John Whitney, Itronics President. "This opens another important
avenue for internally generated growth for Itronics, and represents
a significant extension of the Company's proprietary GOLD'n GRO
nutrient delivery technology."
The
GOLD'n GRO Guardian registration, manufacturing, and sales will
expand the GOLD'n GRO brand into another important market segment,
which is expected to further broaden the customer base and increase
the rate of sales growth. Earlier this year the Company completed
a detailed deer damage study which indicates that deer damage in
suburban America is in the $5 billion range and that sales of its
GOLD'n GRO Guardian deer repellent could top $200 million annually.
Itronics'
continuing expansion is a result of years of research and development
that has made its innovative vertically integrated photochemical
recycling technology that completely converts the waste stream to
pure silver, and its high quality GOLD'n GRO brand of environmentally
compatible fertilizers a success.
