Airprotek International, Inc. Announces Product Lineup for the 2006 International Powersports Dealer Expo
NEWBURY PARK, Calif.--Dec. 1, 20052, 2005--Airprotek International, Inc. (Other OTC:APKI.PK), a Nevada corporation, announced today its 2006 line of airbag safety jackets and vests for the North American Powersports market. Airprotek will exhibit its product lineup at the 2006 International Powersports Dealer Expo in Indianapolis, February 18-20, 2006.The Airprotek 2006 product line will feature eight jackets and four vests designed to keep powersports riders safe and comfortable in a wide range of driving and climatic conditions. All Airprotek jackets and vests incorporate the "Hit-Air" airbag safety system designed to protect the rider's neck, spine and vital organs in the event of a fall or collision. The "Hit Air" jacket uses CE certified armor to protect the shoulders, elbows and the spine but most importantly, the "Hit Air" jacket also incorporates an air cushion system. In the event of an accident and a rider is thrown from the motorcycle, the air cushion instantly inflates (within 1/2 second) to protect the rider's body. Activation is simple and automatic. A coiled wire is attached to both the motorcycle and the jacket. Once the rider and the motorcycle are separated, the coiled wire pulls a "key" out of a gas release system and inert gas inflates the air cushion. The inflated jacket provides the necessary impact protection. After a few seconds the gas is automatically released through the gas release valve. Once the gas is released a new cartridge can be installed and the jacket is ready for reuse.
Anthony Cisneros, President of Associated Partners, the exclusive sales rep for the company, stated, "In November, Airprotek's products received significant attention from retailers, distributors and consumers at the Las Vegas Big Twin show. At the Indy show we plan to make several announcements concerning distribution agreements and private label partnerships with leading companies in the Powersports industry."
Eiichiro Hemmi, CEO of Airprotek International, stated, "Our production facilities and component suppliers in South Korea, Japan and Vietnam are ramping up to meet the strong projected demand for Airprotek's products in 2006."
