Wanderport Hires Independent Laboratory to Validate Eco-Friendly
Microwave Tank-less Water Heater Performance Efficiency Results
NEW YORK, Oct. 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Wanderport Corp.
(OTC Markets-PINKSHEETS: "WDRP") today announced Intertek Group
plc, a worldwide recognized leader in independent,
cost-effective performance efficiency testing and certification
services, has been contracted to test and validate performance
efficiency results on the innovative microwave energy tank-less
water heater.
According to the Company, Intertek's mandate includes:
- To evaluate a fully functioning microwave water heating
unit
- To safely complete performance efficiency testing services and
analysis, while taking into consideration the unique nature and
characteristics of Wanderport's microwave water heating unit and
technology
- To supply Intertek's independent interpretation of their
efficiency analysis performed on the eco-friendly microwave
tank-less water heater.
Intertek Group plc test a host of certification marks and North
American market standards including ETL, CSA and UL. They boast
testing proficiency rooted in a long history of success with
over 127 years experience through their expansive network of global
laboratories and offices. Their expertise includes troubleshooting,
safety, quality control, research and development, design
engineering and evaluation, as well as, prototype testing,
validation and product benchmark testing. While International and
local regulations continuously evolve, Intertek assists their
clients to identify where hazards are likely to occur and to
maintain requisite regulatory and legal compliance.
"Wanderport is in an enviable position transacting with two of
the world's foremost independent certification Laboratories namely
Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) and now Intertek Group
plc. When we presented the technology to UL in a
past consultation, we were very pleased by UL's willingness to
acknowledge our technology's credibility and distinct nature by
means of a proposal to create a 'New and Innovative'
product category for our product. This relationship, combined with
Intertek's certified efficiency results suddenly offers Wanderport
hard facts and leverage for upcoming negotiations to secure a
strategic alliance with a leading manufacturer and should reduce
the company's risk by shortening the product's time-to-market,"
stated Mr. Robert Simoneau,
Wanderport's Technical Advisor and product Licensor.
"Initially, we had intended to provide 'in house' efficiency
performance results; however, we soon realized it would be
virtually impossible to support our claims without validating them
by a recognized third party laboratory. Intertek's group of
professional technicians, safe testing environment and
state-of-the-art research analysis tools provide a setting that
Wanderport alone could not offer. In order to add credibility and
gain a competitive edge, management's new objective is to use
Intertek's certified performance efficiency results and a
demonstration of our fully functioning unit o illustrate how our
technology stacks up against other existing products in the
industry. We feel this will go a long way to tip the pendulum in
our favor," affirmed Mr. Richard
Martel, Wanderport's CEO. "We anticipate releasing
Intertek's performance efficiency test results no later than
November 15th, 2012. In
the interim, it is the company's intention to follow-up on its
promise to release recent pictures of the unit including its
interior, as a well as, a video demonstrating its functionality and
capacity to increase water temperature," further stated Mr.
Martel.
