Shelton, CT, and San Diego, CA, February 22, 2019 (Newswire.com) – Envirosite Corporation, a leading provider of environmental data solutions that enable better decision-making, announces today that it has been honored with the Project Merit: Information Technology award for its groundbreaking Open Environmental Data (OED) Platform as part of the 2018 Environmental Business Journal® (EBJ) Business Awards. Envirosite, an ADEC Innovation, developed the OED Platform to provide clients with an in-depth look into possible environmental contamination or hazardous materials that may hinder the economic development of a particular region. In 2018, Envirosite, in partnership with the Smart and Sustainable Action Association (SaSAA), collaborated with the Broome County, New York Department Planning Department in the creation of a specialized mapping system through the OED platform. This project will be vital to identifying possible contamination sites at the county’s parks, creating opportunities to implement health-related actions and strengthen incident prevention. EBJ is a business research publication which provides strategic information and market forecasts for executives involved in 14 business segments including environmental remediation, water and wastewater, air pollution control, environmental consulting and engineering, hazardous waste, instrumentation, pollution control equipment, waste management, resource recovery, and solid waste management. It presents its annual EBJ Business Achievement Awards to recognize outstanding business performance in the environmental services sector. “In what is widely regarded as a stable market, a number of companies exceeded the norms of low single-digit growth with double-digit growth or ambitious ventures into new practice areas or technology development,” said Grant Ferrier, president of Environmental Business International Inc. (EBI, Inc.), publisher of Environmental Business Journal. Envirosite President Mark Cerino said that the company is honored to be recognized by EBJ as it plays an important role in the environmental services community. “We have built our platforms to meet the ever-changing demands and challenges associated with environmental due diligence and risk management, and the OED platform empowers communities to use high-quality, accurate data to inform development decisions and make a positive impact.” The 2018 EBJ awards will be presented at a special ceremony at the Environmental Industry Summit XVII in San Diego on March 20, 2019, an annual three-day executive retreat hosted by EBI, Inc. ### About Envirosite Envirosite is a data solutions company that develops breakthrough technology that enables stakeholders to put environmental data into action.

IRVINE, Calif. and Colombo, Sri Lanka, June 13, 2018 (Newswire.com)— MAS Holdings (MAS), a leading manufacturer of intimate apparel, sports, swim and performance wear, has invested in CleanChain, a software solution from ADEC Innovations, in its quest to be a zero toxic manufacturer. CleanChain, an ADEC Innovation, will be used by the group to manage chemical use throughout MAS’ global manufacturing operations and supply chain. As part of its zero toxic commitments, MAS needed a process and reporting system that provided inventory registration and management, usage tracking and dashboard views for each of their facilities spread around the globe. After reviewing a number of different solutions, MAS selected CleanChain because it offered a number of unique features not offered by other software companies and allowed them to create the solutions their manual approach had not delivered. Working together, MAS and ADEC Innovations implemented CleanChain to fulfill their specific reporting needs. MAS has since facilitated the adoption of CleanChain at 20 chemical intensive manufacturing facilities in Australia, Bangladesh, China, Germany, Honduras, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Italy, Jordan, Mexico, Sri Lanka, United Kingdom, United States, and Vietnam. “We needed to more proactively and systematically manage the vast amounts of chemical information across our global operations,” said Sharika Senanayake, Director Environmental Sustainability, MAS Holdings. “Since implementing CleanChain and collaborating with the ADEC Innovations team, we have transformed our inefficient and labor-intensive processes into a comprehensive system that helps us better understand and reduce risks, and reduced our manual burden and the associated costs of aggregating supply chain data.” MAS attributes significant improvements in the efficiency and effectiveness of chemical management across their supply chain to CleanChain. An early adopter of the platform, MAS joined in 2016 and has since played an important collaborative role in improving ADEC Innovations’ pioneering chemical information management solution. “ADEC Innovations is thrilled to partner with MAS Holdings in the deployment of CleanChain within their organization and across the supply chain,” said Robert A. Francisco, President, ADEC Innovations. “Our collaboration supports MAS Holdings’ continued commitment to being a proactive and forward-thinking organization with products, plans and strategies that focus on sustainability. Their core ideals are in direct alignment with ADEC Innovations’ mission of developing solutions like CleanChain, which accelerate positive, global impact, resulting in a more sustainable future.” CleanChain is a secure online chemical information management system, built for manufacturers and supported by many of the major brands they supply. It provides partner businesses with a library of over 32,000 chemicals, the results of analyses conducted on those chemical products by approved labs, custom tools to compare how different products comply across multiple Manufacturing Restricted Substance Lists (MRSLs), detailed questionnaires to help users share data on the products they use and an intuitive connections system to facilitate simple sharing of this data. More than 500 users have joined the platform. For more information on CleanChain, visit cleanchain.com. ### About MAS Holdings Being one of the world’s most recognized design to delivery solution providers in apparel and textile manufacturing, MAS manages a portfolio of businesses with revenue of USD 1.8bn.
