NORTH YORK, ON--(Marketwire - March 22, 2011) - Axios Mobile Assets Corporation (CNSX: [ AXA ]) today announced it has received its first purchase order from the largest privately-held U.S.-based national pallet management company. Axios will provide its bio-based pallets enabled with Axios proprietary software and RFID technology for introduction into potential client pilot programs with several of the pallet management company's current customers in the U.S. market, which serve the pharmaceutical, food and beverage and other high-value, time-sensitive industries.

"These potential pilot programs will allow a variety of companies in the pharmaceutical, food and beverage industries to take advantage of a unique, cost-effective, sustainable solution for their logistics and handling operations," said Richard MacDonald, president and CEO of Axios. "This purchase order demonstrates validation by a significant expert and user of pallets and software and provides a significant step in our business strategy to work with leaders in the pallet management market who wish to provide a superior product over their current programs, and recognize the importance of asset recovery and repatriation," he continued. "Working with them will allow us to provide end users with national recovery of the Axios asset," MacDonald added.

Axios' evolutionary bio-based composite pallets provide a more cost-effective distribution solution than traditional wood and plastic pallets. In addition, the Axios logistics management solution enables customers to reduce their carbon footprint based on a number of factors. The Axios web based software provides the veracity in the audit trail in measuring and calculating carbon credits. The Axios pallet is the first combined technology solution to deliver a demonstrable return on investment. Using Axios integrated pallet solutions allows organizations with significant logistics operations to achieve greater operational efficiencies including improved payloads due to not only reduced pallet weight, but also increased strength, durability, multi-trip capability and cleanliness. In turn, users also will be able to offer their customers additional value-added services by utilizing the bundled data and metrics solution for pallet and shipment tracking, all at a lower cost per trip than existing offerings today.
