Zeus Launches First-of-Its-Kind Program That Targets Competition

- ORANGEBURG, South Carolina, Nov. 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Zeus Industrial Products, Inc. (Zeus), a leading polymer extrusion manufacturer and material science innovator, launched a first-of-its-kind program that appeals to medical device manufacturers who are using peelable heat shrink tubing and etched liners from competing suppliers. The "Switch Suppliers and Save" program provides an opportunity to try Zeus heat shrink products at no cost. Zeus' FluoroPEELZ® peelable heat shrink is the featured product in the "Switch Suppliers and Save" program, offering the highest clarity - a result of patented technology developed by Zeus. Currently, Zeus has only licensed its clear peelable heat shrink technology to a single company worldwide.  The single licensee of Zeus' patented technology is primarily using the technology for its own internal supply.  Zeus respects other parties' intellectual property rights and accordingly takes other parties' encroachment of Zeus' patent rights seriously. Any other supplier offering clear peelable heat shrink is encroaching on Zeus' patent rights. Companies who have obtained peelable heat shrink from unlicensed suppliers could experience a disruption in that supply, due to potential re-qualification of a non-transparent heat shrink formulation. Conversely, Zeus provides certainty with respect to continuous supply and the appropriate rights to clear peelable heat shrink. FluoroPEELZ is also Class VI medical grade approved. When combined with Zeus' etched liner products, medical device manufacturers are able to accelerate production, increase yield, and improve safety during the catheter construction process. The "Switch Suppliers and Save" program incentivizes manufacturers who are ready to transition to a better supplier, and in turn achieve cost savings by bundling complementary products. This program simplifies the transition process by minimizing the risk associated with switching suppliers and helping buyers, engineers, and manufacturers justify the decision to do so. Companies that qualify for the program will receive: By participating in the program, manufacturers will also gain access to collaborate with Zeus staff applications scientists to ensure that the custom products developed by Zeus satisfy your specific requirements. COMMENTS "Zeus understands the time, effort, and cost involved in switching suppliers. However, we're making it easier than ever for companies to decrease costs and switch to Zeus. Our heat shrink solutions and etched liners offer superior quality over the competition. This program allows manufacturers a way to increase the overall value their polymer supplier contributes to their company's goals." – Bob Chaney, Senior Vice President, Global Sales & Marketing, Zeus Industrial Products, Inc. "Manufacturers waiting to evaluate Zeus heat shrink and etched liners now have a low-risk, economical opportunity. The manufacturers can enjoy preferred pricing when transitioning to Zeus from their existing supplier. By switching to Zeus, companies can consolidate suppliers, bundle better heat shrink with better liners, and save money in the process." – Daryl Leach, Director of Global Market Management, Zeus Industrial Products, Inc.
