("UltraStrip"), the pioneer of robotic ship hull cleaning equipment, announced today that it has received a patent covering the enabling technology of its pressure cleaning system from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (U.S. Patent 6,595,152). The patent application was filed in 1995, thus predating all known technology for ultra high-pressure robotic cleaning systems. UltraStrip has been awarded seven patents of its ultra high pressure cleaning systems over the years and are very pleased to announce that the latest patent constitutes the broadest possible coverage. President and CEO Stephen R. Johnson states, "UltraStrip's unique, patented semi automated systems are the highest production coating removal equipment available in the industry and this patent broadens the Company's established magnetic adhesion technology to now include vacuum adhesion and levels of chloride. Various products that are in the market may be infringing on UltraStrip's latest patent." UltraStrip develops and manufactures robotic solutions to environmental problems in the surface preparation and coatings removal industry and has developed portable, self-contained filtration equipment for possible use in homeland security. UltraStrip's patented robotic water jetting systems are designed to provide an environmentally safe coatings removal process in both heavy marine and above ground storage tank applications. The robotic systems represent a significant innovation in the surface preparation of ships and other structures. UltraStrip's patented systems have been used on the USS Eisenhower, a U.S. Navy Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, the USS Cole, the U.S. Navy destroyer attacked in Yemen in October 2000, the USS Doyle, a Navy guided missile destroyer, the USS Shreveport, LPD-17, Carnival and NCL cruise ships, as well as in the Lisnave Ship Yard in Portugal, one of the world's busiest commercial yards for the heavy marine industry.
