Biotech/Pharma Stocks News; UV Flu Technologies (OTCBB: UVFT) Completes Acquisition of RxAir Industries

CENTERVILLE, MA � January 31, 2011 (Investorideas.com Newswire) - UV Flu Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: UVFT) (the "Company") is pleased to announce it has completed an agreement securing the acquisition of RxAir Industries, LLC, ("RxAir") headquartered in Dallas, Texas.
RxAir (www.rxair.com) is a well-known and highly regarded manufacturer of high quality air purification equipment designed for applications within the medical and hospitality marketplace, and also includes products geared for specialized industrial applications, such as emergency preparedness.
The agreement includes a patented, trademarked product line, with national distributors and representatives, an extensive customer list, inventory, and all associated manufacturing equipment. The Company has been in business for 15 years, and existing sales include an installed base of several thousand units in over 1000 unique facilities nationwide, including over 400 hospitals. The Company's two main products, the RX3000, which is the Company's best seller, provides air purification coverage in spaces up to 2000 sq. ft, while the RX4500, also known as the "Smoke Handler," is the preferred choice of hospitality establishments nationwide. The unit protects spaces of up to 5000 sq. feet, and can be connected to existing ductwork. Both units can remove more than 99.97% of airborne contaminants and pathogens greater than 0.3 micrometers in size and are designed with exterior cabinetry able to match any d�cor. They combine multiple filter configurations, including HEPA, with germicidal UV lamps, making one of the most effective air purification systems in the world today.
"This acquisition will be operated as a subsidiary of UV Flu Technologies, and will provide a U.S. manufacturing base to aid our efforts in the pursuit of medical, hotel, casino, government and DoD contract opportunities, including military and government facilities," said Mr. John Lennon, President of UV Flu Technologies. "The enhanced product line will make us increasingly attractive to large US distributors, and increase our visibility within the hospital and hospitality marketplace. The larger models and coverage that the RxAir units add to our product line open up a whole new marketplace for us. Larger public spaces like school cafeterias, gaming areas, restaurants, gymnasiums, and construction sites are now just some of the many potential new targets for our products. We believe the synergies will be extraordinary and hope to significantly increase our revenue estimates for 2011 as a result. Once our residential model is introduced to the lineup in 2011 we are highly optimistic for increased traction across the entire segment."
