Wataire Industries Inc. Ships Commercial Water Generator To Mexico

Vancouver, B.C. — Wataire Industries Inc., a world class manufacturer of atmospheric water generators, announced today confirmation that the company will be shipping a CI 2500 commercial Atmospheric Water Generator to Cancun, Mexico, in cooperation with Tecno Alta Distribucion of Mexico City.

Wataire and Tecno Alta will be demonstrating various applications of the commercial water generator including use as permanent water supply for the booming oil rig and soft drink industries, hospitals, as well as disaster relief in Mexico. Wataire will also be participating with Tecno Alta in two Mexican tradeshows which are being held in Cancun in mid June and September of this year. Last October, Cancun, Mexico's most popular resort, was severely damaged when Hurricane Wilma struck the city for a full 40 hours leaving it in virtual ruins. Not only the devastation but the complete loss of the water supply for the city created a hardship for the people of Cancun never before recognized.

In a recent article posted by Department of Atmospheric Science CSU, the 2006 hurricane season will be much more active than the average season. It is estimated that 2006 will have about 9 hurricanes (average is 5.9), 17 named storms (average is 9.6), 85 named storm days (average is 49.1), 45 hurricane days (average is 24.5), 5 intense (Category 3-4-5) hurricanes (average is 2.3) and 13 intense hurricane days (average is 5.0).

Vice President Nand Shankar stated, "With the implementation of Wataire's technology, including the portable commercial generator, Wataire will be in a position to respond through appropriate agencies to assist disaster struck areas by supplying clean drinking water rapidly."
