Freedom Technologies Launches ID Material Science Division
Freedom Technologies Focuses On Harsh Environment ID Materials for Labels & Marking

BRIGHTON, Michigan– February 9, 2009. Freedom Technologies announces the launch of Aptus Global, their new identification material science division. Aptus Global designs and supplies identification materials for extreme environments such as battlefields, chemical exposures and other demanding scenarios. As a natural outgrowth from the core business of Freedom Technologies in Military and Industrial Process software, Aptus will fill the need for robust and machine readable identification in challenging applications.

Ground breaking advances have been made in field ID to meet desert sand storm conditions, aerospace ID to withstand harsh flight conditions such as Skydrol, marine equipment ID to meet HERO compliance, among others. The ability to offer application testing and validation prior to implementing a solution also brings new value to our clients.

“The keys to our successes have been our deep knowledge base derived from multiple industries and our drive to find a solution regardless of the challenge. We are finding that the ID community has not previously had access to this level of technical expertise, at least not in material sciences as they relate to creating permanent ID for parts in harsh environments.” states Shawn Baker, Director of Aptus Global.

About Aptus Global
Aptus Global, an ID Material Science division of Freedom Technologies, is dedicated to the design and development of ID materials for extreme environments. Applications such as the Field Defense Label and the Armor Defense Label exceed the demands of harsh environments such as desert sand storm, hydraulic fluid, corrosion, ocean water, oils and humidity. Aptus Global ID material science solutions are lab tested with proven results. We are driven to develop and provide engineered ID solutions that last the entire lifecycle of a client’s part.
