SARASOTA, Florida (News release) -- MoistTech Corp™ and Belgium based company Weighing & Inspection have announced a strategic partnership to provide advanced moisture measurement capabilities for manufactured materials to customers in the Benelux region.

The partnership will deliver a unique workflow capability focused on improving productivity and efficiency, streamlining operations for customers by implementing Near-Infrared (NIR) technology for moisture measurement and control. The new workflow tools will prove indispensable to any professional manufacturing organization world-wide. An initial primary focus will be developing a joint marketing capability to demonstrate to customers in the Benelux how advanced moisture control technology can measurably drive quality and efficiency.

"MoistTech Corp. is excited to partner with Weighing & Inspection to enhance our delivery of new features to the moisture measurement industry. This will enable us to become more efficient and reduce costs for a larger audience." said Adrian Fordham, President of MoistTech Corp.

Known as the leader in moisture measurement and coating thickness, MoistTech Corp. is supported by the original manufacturers of Near-Infrared (NIR) technology in the industrial moisture industry, manufacturing a range of on-line sensors and at-line instruments for moisture measurement and real-time moisture process control for numerous applications. Insensitive to material variations such as particle size, material height and color, our moisture sensors provide continuous, reliable readings with zero maintenance. There is a one-time calibration with a non-drift optical design allowing operational personnel to confidently make immediate process adjustments based on real-time measurements.

"By partnering with Weighing & Inspection, MoistTech Corp. is helping to improve workflow the world over," said John Fordham, Managing Director, MoistTech Corp.
