Material Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: MTTG)

Dear Reader,

With leading market pundits like Jim Cramer (host of CNBC's Mad Money) continuing to shine a positive light on the future infrastructure companies and their equities, smallcap investors are searching the investment landscape for the next big winner.  But how can one equity rise above the rest and how can we identify those with real potential to thrive?

What can often indicate that a company indeed has the 'goods' is third-party validation.  For example, Material Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: MTTG) just announced that its Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor (EFS) System was utilized by CalTrans to inspect a fracture critical bridge located in West Sacramento, CA (See NEWS below)

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Material Technologies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MTTG - News; MATECH), Los Angeles, CA provided inspection services to CalTrans using their patented Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor (EFS) System. The inspected structure is a fracture critical bridge located in West Sacramento, CA that has been repaired and retrofitted. Inspection results are being used to determine which of the existing cracks are growing, if there are other locations which contain cracks previously undocumented, and whether the repairs and retrofits installed on the bridge are working properly, that is, not exhibiting any crack growth. This information can be used to prioritize repair funds as well as verify the efficacy of those repairs and repair methods.

The inspection was completed on December 12, 2007, with a dozen CalTrans representatives present. Results will be presented to officials to determine further uses of EFS across the state.

Robert M. Bernstein, MATECH's CEO, says, "MATECH continues to provide DOT's (state departments of transportation) with invaluable information never available before. More and more DOT's are becoming familiar with the technology and requesting inspections. They are using the inspection results to make better bridge management decisions."

Other Recent NEWS from Matech

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- A lead article in the magazine ADVANCED MATERIALS & PROCESSES of November 2007 describes the Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor (EFS) as a nondestructive crack inspection technology developed by Material Technologies Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MTTG - News; MATECH), Los Angeles, Calif. EFS can determine if actively growing fatigue cracks are present in a bridge or other metal structures subjected to cyclic loadings.

The article describes the EFS system, which consists of a differential EFS sensor array, data collection hardware and data interpretation software. EFS is the only nondestructive field-testing device able to find growing cracks in bridge structural members as small as 0.01 inches in length. This is critical information that allows structural engineers to isolate problems and repair steel bridges.

Bridge inspections are mostly visual, often done by inspectors using binoculars from a distance. This is not an adequate means of inspection, since 90 percent or more of the fatigue cracks are completely missed with visual inspection alone, according to the Federal Highway Administration. The fifty states of the US as a whole have 190,000 metal bridges, with 39,000 structurally deficient and 35,000 functionally obsolete.

MATECH's EFS is being used by states in three different ways -- as a means of prioritizing already limited repair and rehabilitation funds, as a traditional inspection tool since EFS finds cracks smaller than other technologies which leads to less expensive repairs, and as a repair/retrofit verification device.

Robert M. Bernstein, MATECH's CEO, says, "MATECH has performed more than twenty-five inspections on highway and railroad bridges around the country, and we have every confidence that our EFS can save significant repair and rehabilitation dollars by its timely use, as well as avoiding lane and bridge closures which can have a devastating effect on the regional economy, not to mention avoiding potential tragedies of bridge failures."
