The Soy Daily — May 2006
Coverage of the Ag Sealants Platform development with quotes from William Collins, General Manager of Sealant Technologies, Inc.:
"We created the products for the AG Sealants Platform to meet specific industry needs. Before Ag-Tite Spray Sealants were developed we noticed that clientele in the poultry industry needed a solution to repairing their facilities. Many of the buildings were more than a decade old and had experienced wear and tear from daily operations and we were able to solve that problem with the creation of our agricultural spray sealants."
Supported by the United Soybean Board and soybean checkoff program.
Power To Poultry — May 2008
Cost-effectiveness analysis of Ag-Tite spray sealants for poultry operations, with additional commentary from William Collins:
"The spray sealants are not only good for farmers since it's made with soy, but it also helps to reduce on-farm costs from heating buildings and animal livestock facilities. Our product is cost-effective, has twice the density of any other polyurethane product in the market and is the only product that has been E-84 tested as an agricultural sealant."
