  CINCINNATI, OH, Apr 17 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
 Cold Jet, LLC, the global leader in dry ice blast cleaning and production
solutions, and Coldsweep, a contractor based in Mountain Green, Utah that
exclusively uses Cold Jet equipment, will join business and environmental
leaders from around the world at FORTUNE Brainstorm: Green, an invitation-only
event at Langham Huntington Hotel & Spa in Pasadena, Calif. on April 21-22,
2008.Attendees representing all fields of business, academia, politics and
non-governmental organizations will discuss the impact of the green movement
and explore the opportunities and challenges facing FORTUNE 500 companies,
entrepreneurs, governments, and the financial world. Among the hundreds of
companies that will be represented at the event are BP Oil, Dow Corning,
DuPont, ExxonMobil, GE, General Motors and Xerox.

    Cold Jet and Coldsweep are among 20 sponsors that were invited to the
environmental conference to demonstrate innovative, cutting edge green products
and solutions as part of the event's "Green Playground." Coldsweep, which was
named as
one of the top ten greenest small businesses in America by StartupNation, uses
Cold
Jet's environmentally responsible dry ice blast cleaning systems to provide
fast,
effectiveindustrial cleaning and historical restoration services. Cold Jet's
cleaning
solutions are being used around the world and across multiple industries,
including rubber and plastics, printing, automotive, packaging, semi-conductor,
power generation and  remediation and restoration to help reduce the impact of
cleaning chemicals and the secondary waste produced by conventional cleaning
processes.

    "We are excited to be a part of the FORTUNE Brainstorm: Green conference and
to
share the stage with so many business and environmental leaders," said Randell
Heath, founder of Coldsweep, LLC. "With the help of Cold Jet, we have helped
numerous companies and organizations across the United States recognize the
power and efficacy of dry ice blast cleaning, and the environmental of using
CO2 to eliminate the dependence on harmful, ozone depleting cleaning chemicals.
This conference will allow us a unique opportunity to educate, and in many
cases, introduce to many of the conference attendees dry ice blasting as a
green cleaning alternative."

    Cold Jet dry ice blasting uses compressed air to accelerate frozen carbon
dioxide (CO2) "dry ice" pellets through high-velocity nozzles to impinge
upon the surface being cleaned.  The combination of the kinetic and thermal
shock effects breaks the bond between the residue and the surface. The residue
falls away from the surface and is easily removed.  The dry ice particles
sublimate (transition from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid
stage) upon impact, leaving no other cleaning by-product, and eliminating the
added cost and inconvenience of secondary waste treatment and disposal.

    "FORTUNE Brainstorm: Green provides a tremendous opportunity for Cold Jet
and
Coldsweep to educate leaders from all industries about dry ice blasting,"
said Stuart Rabkin, chief marketing officer at Cold Jet, LLC. "Thousands of
organizations around the world use our systems because they work better than
conventional cleaning solutions.  With an increased focus on green, the
environmental benefits of our cleaning process have become increasingly
important, and our systems have become truly complementary components of our
customers'
overall green strategies.  We look forward to representing the select group
of innovative companies that have been invited to demonstrate our commitment
to the environment."
