Multinational food processing company turns to Boilerroom Equipment, Inc.'s HeatSponge to replace failing economizers
Ottawa, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - January 10, 2024) - Thermal Energy International Inc. (TSXV: TMG) (OTCQB: TMGEF) ("Thermal Energy" or the "Company"), a provider of innovative energy efficiency and carbon emission reduction solutions to major corporations around the world, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Boilerroom Equipment, Inc. ("BEI"), has received a purchase order valued at approximately $540,000 from a Fortune 500 food processing and commodities trading company for eight HeatSponge boiler economizers. This is the largest single order in BEI history. The project is expected to be completed and revenue earned within the next six months. All figures are shown in CAD.
"We are pleased to kick off the calendar year with the receipt of this custom equipment order, which is BEI's largest single purchase order ever," said William Crossland, Thermal Energy CEO. "The genesis of this order traces back to a customer inquiry for a replacement of a single failed economizer made by another manufacturer. Upon reviewing the value-added design of BEI's HeatSponge COLOSSUS-model economizers, which translates to longer service life, shorter downtime, and lower maintenance costs, the customer chose to replace seven more economizers with BEI's HeatSponge economizers."
"Last year, BEI's revenue was almost double what it was two years prior, and by the end of the second quarter this year, BEI's order intake was up another 33% year-over-year," added Mr. Crossland. "Other notable orders BEI has received in the past few months, include: four-economizers to be installed at a large electric vehicle battery plant under construction in the United States, a project calling for a HeatSponge economizer to be uniquely adapted to serve as a combustion air preheater; a three-stage economizer to be installed at a food processing facility in Canada; a two-stage high recovery economizer for a Canadian Military facility; three economizers for a U.S. Midwest hospital; and, four economizers for a U.S. Veterans Hospital."
Thermal Energy acquired BEI and its complementary product offering in June of 2018.

This press release contains forward-looking statements relating to, and amongst other things, based on management's expectations, estimates, and projections, the anticipated effectiveness of the Company's products and services, the timing of revenues to be received by the Company, the anticipated effects of COVID-19 on the business, backlog, and revenue, and the expectation that orders in backlog will become revenue.
Information as to the amount of heat recovered, energy savings, and payback period associated with Thermal Energy International's products are based on the Company's own testing and average customer results to date. Statements relating to the order-intake, expected installation and revenue recognition for projects, statements about the anticipated effectiveness and lifespan of the Company's products, statements about the expected environmental effects and cost savings associated with the Company's products, and statements about the Company's ability to cross-sell its products and sell to more sites are forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve several risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Orders received in a fiscal year may not become revenue for the Company within such fiscal year. Many factors, some of which are outside of the Company's control, could cause events and results to differ materially from those stated. Fulfilment of orders, installation of products, and activation of products could all be delayed for several reasons, some of which are outside of the Company's control, which would result in anticipated revenues from such projects being delayed or in the most serious cases eliminated. Actions taken by the Company's customers and factors inherent in the customer's facilities but not anticipated by the Company can have a negative impact on the expected effectiveness and lifespan of the Company's products and on the expected environmental effects and cost savings expected from the Company's products. Any customer's willingness to purchase additional products from the Company and whether orders in the Company's backlog as described above will turn into revenue is dependent on many factors, some of which are outside of the Company's control, including but not limited to the customer's perceived needs and the continuing financial viability of the customer. The Company disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any such statements except as required by law.
