MATECH Signs Contract to Perform EFS Testing on a Landmark Bridge

LOS ANGELES, CA, Oct 05 (MARKET WIRE) --
MATECH Corp. (OTCBB: MTCH) (www.matechcorp.com) is pleased to announce
that the Company has signed a contract with a major interstate
transportation agency to perform advanced crack detection services using
its revolutionary Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor (EFS) System on a
landmark bridge. MATECH's EFS technology is the only practical
nondestructive bridge inspection method able to detect growing cracks as
small as 0.01 inches in bridges and other structures.

This significant EFS testing project will be performed by MATECH in
conjunction with an EFS service provider and is intended to determine (1)
which cracks are growing on the bridge; (2) which fatigue susceptible
areas on the bridge have growing cracks that cannot be detected with other
methods; and (3) which crack repairs are working and which are not.

"We are pleased to announce to MATECH shareholders that we have signed a
contract to perform EFS Testing on this landmark bridge, and consider such
a high-profile project to be a significant milestone for the Company,"
said Robert Bernstein, CEO of MATECH.

Mr. Bernstein added that management will provide specific details on this
bridge project once the inspection is complete.

Somewhere in America a bridge fails every week -- despite the significant
funds spent on inspections every year. The communities, home to these
small- to medium-size steel bridges, pay a high price for their closure
and/or collapse -- not only in terms of traffic congestion and economic
productivity, but too often in human lives as well. MATECH's revolutionary
EFS technology is one answer to this growing problem.
