As part of a non disclosure agreement, Hybrid is not at liberty to divulge the identity of the potential partner.
Hybrid is in advanced discussions and testing with several other similar sized companies as well and expects to enter into agreements with some of these in the near future. In all, Hybrid is at different stages of discussions and/or testing with more than 24 different companies of which 11 of these are large multinationals.
Hybrid's patented technology is the only formulation in the world today that produces polyurethane without the use of any isocyanates in the entire production process.
On June 25, 2013 the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), a division of the U.S. Department of Labor, initiated a National Emphasis Program to protect workers from the serious health effects from occupational exposure to isocyanates. Isocyanates are found in polyurethane based products. According to the OSHA, "Workers exposed to isocyanates can suffer debilitating health problems for months or even years after exposure which could result in death."
The U.S. EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) is looking to control and potentially outright ban isocyanates and mentioned Hybrid's technology as an alternative to toxic polyurethane in its Action Plan against isocyanates (see page 4 Figovsky and Shapovalov)
