MONTREAL, QC, September 17, 2010 (Press-News.org) Many companies seek increased energy efficiency solutions, while some even strive for LEED certification. How the company chooses to go about it can be the difference between unnecessary down-time and a quicker investment payback. Especially in the case of companies who opt to retrofit existing facilities, Cypress Envirosystems offers innovative technologies that actually improve productivity while saving money.
Founded by CEO Harry Sim in 2006, Cypress Envirosystems' goal is simple: to help older plants and buildings save energy and improve productivity. The company specializes in products, such as the Wireless Pneumatic Thermostat, Wireless Gauge Reader or Wireless Steam Trap Monitor, which can be installed with a minimum of disruption and expense. Their products use the latest Silicon Valley technology and apply it to the oldest building systems to make them more efficient.
"Our products take minutes instead of hours to install, therefore the cost is much lower and the payback is much faster - about 12 to 18 months," said Sim. "That's what people are looking for these days and it has really resonated with the attendees at the FMA Congress in Chicago."
At the event, Sim lead a presentation on retrofitting existing facilities and found the audience to be "fairly large and focused exactly on and primed for this topic."
"Our message hit home. Within two to three hours of the presentation we had a lot of visitors to our booth and had already scheduled a lot of site visits," said Sim.
This is the second FMA event attended by Cypress Envirosystems, and Sim said he already has the schedule for 2011 so that he can plan ahead to attend future events.
"Attendees at FMA events are more focused on the energy space and are at a more senior level (than at other events) and seem to have specific projects to complete. I find their interest to be relevant to our offerings and they are in the position to make decisions."

FMA has built its reputation on a quality over quantity approach. By working only with speakers and attendees of the highest caliber, we are able to guarantee a superior level of value and learning at our events. Our congresses focus on the most up-to-date green technologies and programs as they emerge on the market, while providing an atmosphere conducive to fostering long-term business relationships.

FMA Congresses and Toshiba are Drawing on Heritage and Technology to Provide Leading LED Lighting Solutions
2010-09-17
When consumers think of Toshiba, most think of world-class electronics and semiconductor technologies, and that would be an accurate association. As of September 2009, Toshiba International Corporation brought its LED Lighting Division to the U.S. with a lofty environmental vision and a rich history of global technology and lighting innovations in Japan.
Toshiba's Environmental Vision 2050 is a worldwide effort to improve the eco-efficiency of all of the company's business processes and products by five times by the year 2025 and by ten times by 2050, with LED lighting ...
FMA Congresses and Waste Management are Changing Attitudes: From Garbage Collection to Environmental Performance
2010-09-17
We've all heard the old adage, "One man's trash is another man's treasure." Waste Management, Inc. actually proved it with a study a couple of years ago that found the materials in U.S. landfills alone holds about $10 billion in value every year. North America's leading provider of comprehensive waste management solutions knows that we are a throw-away society and has perfected getting garbage to the landfills. Its challenge now is to get people to understand that realizing a zero-waste operation is an achievable goal and that there is value to the trash being thrown out, ...
Protein clamps tight to telomeres to help prevent aging ... and support cancer
2010-09-16
The number of times our cells can divide is dictated by telomeres, stretches of DNA at the tips of our chromosomes. Understanding how telomeres keep our chromosomes – and by extension, our genomes – intact is an area of intense scientific focus in the fields of both aging and cancer. Now, scientists at The Wistar Institute have published the first detailed report on the structure and function of a crucial domain in the protein known as Cdc13, which sustains telomeres by clamping to DNA and recruiting replicating enzymes to the area.
While the nature of this portion of ...
NASA satellite measures monstrous Hurricane Igor as a '10-hour drive'
2010-09-16
Hurricane Igor is a monster hurricane in terms of strength and size. To get a perspective on its size, it is the same distance from one end of the storm to the other as it is from Boston, Mass. to Richmond, Va., some 550 miles. That's a 10-hour drive from one end to the other, and NASA satellites captured that entire distance in one image.
Because Hurricane Igor is a large storm and even if Igor doesn't make a direct landfall in Bermuda, the extent of the winds (the wind field) is so large that the National Hurricane Center noted that Bermuda can be buffeted by winds ...
Novel target for existing drug may improve success of radiation therapy
2010-09-16
Scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have discovered a new drug target that could improve the effectiveness of radiation for hard-to-treat cancers.
The finding, published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, focuses on the role of the enzyme cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2). This enzyme promotes development and functioning of blood vessel networks that feed malignant tumors, enabling them to overcome the effects of radiation.
They have also identified a drug that stops production of the enzyme. Inhibiting the enzyme can stop ...
Increased brain protein levels linked to Alzheimer's disease
2010-09-16
Elevated levels of a growth protein in the brains of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients is linked to impaired neurogenesis, the process by which new neurons are generated, say researchers at the University of California, San Diego in today's edition of The Journal of Neuroscience.
Eliezer Masliah, MD, professor of neurosciences and pathology in the UC San Diego School of Medicine and colleagues report that increased levels of BMP6 – part of a family of bone morphogenetic proteins involved in cell signaling and growth – were found in the brains of Alzheimer's patients and ...
Arctic sea ice reaches lowest 2010 extent, third lowest in satellite record
2010-09-16
The Arctic sea ice cover appears to have reached its minimum extent for the year, the third-lowest recorded since satellites began measuring sea ice extent in 1979, according to the University of Colorado at Boulder's National Snow and Ice Data Center.
While this year's September minimum extent was greater than 2007 and 2008, the two record-setting and near-record-setting low years, it is still significantly below the long-term average and well outside the range of natural climate variability, according to CU-Boulder's NSIDC scientists. Most researchers believe the shrinking ...
Stress accelerates breast cancer progression in mice
2010-09-16
Chronic stress acts as a sort of fertilizer that feeds breast cancer progression, significantly accelerating the spread of disease in animal models, researchers at UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center have found.
Researchers discovered that stress is biologically reprogramming the immune cells that are trying to fight the cancer, transforming them instead from soldiers protecting the body against disease into aiders and abettors. The study found a 30-fold increase in cancer spread throughout the bodies of stressed mice compared to those that were not stressed. ...
