AgriFORCE Delivers Second-Generation RCS Units for Introduction Into Mexican Market

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AgriFORCE Growing Systems Ltd. (“the Company”) (NASDAQ: AGRI; AGRIW), an intellectual property (IP) focused AgTech company, completed delivery of its first batch of eight second-generation AgriForce RCS-Hydroxyl devices, known as the “QuadPro,” to be introduced into the Mexican market, as arranged by its Mexico distributor, Distributor Commercializadora DESICO, a leading distributor of Greenhouse heating, and air ventilation systems in Mexico.

The QuadPro offers multiple advantages to the previous generation device, including:

  • No-weld construction
  • Increase in airflow by nearly 200%
  • Reduction in noise level by 40%, making the QuadPro equivalent to a common household refrigerator in terms of decibel level
  • Lighter weight with improved center of gravity design to facilitate better movability
  • Improved design for both vertical and horizontal placement

AgriFORCE Executive Turnaround Consultant Jolie Kahn commented, “As we continue to refine our strategy, we are gratified to continue to be an innovator in creating optimized indoor environments that more closely emulate what we think of as ‘fresh air’ by reducing pathogens that commonly develop indoors and creating a hydroxyl-rich indoor atmosphere. Our RCS systems serve to enhance the effectiveness of our agribusiness partners, while keeping us at the forefront of agricultural technology. We look forward to continuing to distribute these updated systems that both improve business opportunities for our partners while ensuring fresher produce for their customers.”

The patent-pending AgriFORCE RCS-Hydroxyl device is a chemical-free technology proven to eliminate pathogens in food production facilities and indoor farms. The RCS device seeks out and destroys both airborne and surface-based mold, bacteria, viruses, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), as well as pathogens and pollutants. Reducing mold and VOCs, is expected to dramatically impact the bottom line of produce packing and food manufacturing customers, improving food safety, and reducing food spoilage.
