CHICAGO, ILLINOIS--(Marketwire - Jan. 26, 2009) - Freshwater Technologies Inc. (OTCBB:FWTC) is pleased to announce that ozone technology is proving to be an effective method to ensure the safety of food products. Freshwater Technologies has acquired 5 country distribution rights from Ozocan Corporation , an internationally recognized ozone manufacturer. Ozocan is currently developing and demonstrating applications for ozone to reduce microbial contamination in the food industry. The US Food and Drug Administration's approval of the use of ozone as an anti-microbial agent for food treatment , storage and processing now provides the basis for expanded use of ozone in food processing from produce washing to recycling of poultry wash water . (Zentox Corporation Report.) Freshwater Technologies is exclusively committed to the use of "green" environmentally friendly products and ozone technology from Ozocan Corporation offers the following advantages over traditional food treatment methods.

1. The use of chlorine is of concern due to toxicity issues and disinfectant byproducts.

2. Ozone has greater lethality rates than chlorine or other chemical sanitizing agents.

3. Water cost promotes more use of recycling of product wash and process water.

4. Ozone uses cold water saving the cost of heating both wash and rinse water.

The Zentox Corporation report indicates that the USDA estimates that 30% of fresh produce is lost by microbial spoilage and the costs related with foodborne illness to be in the range of $ 5 to $ 22 billion per year. Ozone has shown its ability to effectively treat contamination in fruits and vegetables, facilitate the reuse of poultry processing water and extend food product storage life of dairy , beef and fish. Freshwater , through its extensive Latin American distribution network will be exploring the significant potential of Ozocan Corporations food processing applications in response to the growing concern over food safety issues.
