Clorox(R) FreshCare(TM) Kitchen & All-Purpose Towels Powered by HaloShield(R) Now Available At Wal-Mart(R) Stores Nationwide

SEATTLE--(Business Wire)--
HaloSource(R), a global antimicrobial and clean technologies
solutions company, has broadened the reach of its HaloShield(R)
ingredient brand, with the introduction of Clorox(R) FreshCare(TM)
Towels, now available in Wal-Mart stores nationwide.

Clorox(R) FreshCare(TM) Towels, powered by HaloShield, are
protected against the growth of odor-causing bacteria. HaloShield(R)
is a patented coating that binds chlorine-based bleach to household
textiles made of cotton. The HaloShield coating, combined with the
power of Clorox(R) Regular-Bleach inhibits the growth of odor-causing
bacteria on the towel or dishcloth. Antimicrobial protection of the
towel is reactivated every time the product is washed with Clorox(R)
Regular-Bleach and lasts the lifetime of the product.

"With FreshCare(TM) Towels, you don't need to worry about foul
smelling dishcloths or hand towels," says HaloSource CEO John Kaestle.
"We are excited to be able to bring this technology to market and
offer a solution to this everyday problem."

"The HaloShield technology allows us to provide a solution to the
real concerns consumers have about cleanliness when they use
traditional towels and sponges," said Suzanne Sengelmann, vice
president, Clorox Cleaning New Business Division. "Clorox(R)
FreshCare(TM) Towels provide assurance to parents who are looking for
ways to help keep their homes cleaner."

Other antimicrobial HaloShield-treated items include a range of
uniform products for use in medical environments and bed linens
designed for institutional use.
