Kelso Technologies Inc. (TSX VENTURE:KLS)(OTCQX:KEOSF)(PINKSHEETS:KEOSF) - 

Kelso reports that it will be a presenter at the Financial Services Exchange
("FSX") convention in Dallas, Texas from January 26 - 28, 2012. FSX "Connect for
Success" conferences are one of the oldest and most trusted financial services
forums in the United States. The Company's business model has now matured to the
point that it can present its value proposition to accredited investors,
investment professionals and financial institutions in the United States.


Kelso is an emerging railroad equipment supplier that produces and distributes
new innovative technologies for the safe containment of hazardous materials
("HAZMAT") during transport. Proprietary products include the Company's unique
external pressure relief valves ("EPRV") and a revolutionary new entry manway
securement system trademarked the "Kelso Klincher(TM)" ("KKS"). All products are
patented designs that reduce the risk of environmental harm due to
non-accidental release events in the transport of HAZMAT.


In 2012 the Company continues to build the capability of its production, sales
and distribution operations. Past industry skepticism and resistance has turned
to bona fide engineering assessments of our products. We are now working on
product specifications and adoption schedules for 2012 and 2013 with
manufacturers and retrofitters of railroad tank cars in conjunction with
numerous Fortune 500 customers who transport hazardous commodities such as crude
oil, ethanol, petrochemicals and other toxic chemicals. Purchase orders are
expected and will be announced when received. 


Production of our KKS products commences in early 2012 in our second assembly
plant that was purchased in mid 2011 in Bonham, Texas. A third 20,000 square
foot assembly plant in Bonham is in the final design stage and expected to open
in June 2012 with a target capacity of 10,000 KKS units per year. 


Our new KKS provides a revolutionary change in the handling dynamics and
infrastructure of the HAZMAT industry. It is a major industry innovation and
addresses stringent environmental sensitivities and worker safety. Our KKS
program is being well supported by regulators, railroads, customers, industry
workers and emergency response organizations. 


Our main challenge to market penetration is that the railroad industry is very
slow to design or adopt new technologies. In many cases designs have not changed
in decades even though environmental sensitivities and engineering problems
haunt and perplex the industry. This circumstance provides Kelso with a strong
business opportunity to deliver technology solutions for our customers that
improve performance, provide cost benefits and improve longevity. Our technology
goal is to have our EPRV and KKS become the "best available technology" standard
on all HAZMAT applications that are specified by rail tank car manufacturers,
retrofitters and repair shops. The focus is to build a successful multi-million
business on behalf of the shareholders of Kelso Technologies.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, 

James R. Bond, CEO and President
