Kolorfusion International, Inc. and PermLight Products, Inc. Enter
Joint Development Agreement
DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 9, 2004--Kolorfusion International,
Inc. (OTCBB: KOLR - News) and PermLight Products, Inc. (Tustin, CA.)
announced they have entered a Joint Development Agreement to further
expand the Kolorfusion patented surface enhancement technology and its
new glow in the dark technology (Curtisium(TM)) into the LED signage
market, which is target marketed by PermLight.
"PermLight has developed patented and proprietary technology with
LED's to create unique and visually attractive interior signage.
Permlight's patented thermal management techniques require the fixture
itself to become part of the heat-spreading element to increase the
LED lifetime. The emissive qualities (i.e. ability to deflect heat) of
Kolorfusion's process is far greater than most natural metallic
finishes. Hence, combining the Kolorfusion process with our products,
which interface with human touch creates an elegant decoration and is
also a heat deflector. Additionally, the new glow in the dark material
of Kolorfusion can also be actuated with our proprietary LED's to
create a whole new category of signage," stated Manuel Lynch President
of PermLight.
The two companies are working together to introduce a series of new
products this spring that break traditional thinking in LED lighting.
The first series of products will be Permlight's ButtonLight(TM)
technology, which is a new series of luminaries for use in
applications ranging from safety lighting, front lighting of signage,
courtesy lighting in boats, and general illumination in RVs and motor
homes.
Steve Nagel, Kolorfusion's President, stated, "Permlight is thinking
'outside the box' when it comes to LED signage product innovation.
LEDs have an enormous potential in the general lighting market, but
conventional thinking has somewhat stalled their adoption. The concept
of offering high quality sign luminaries, wherein their borders and
frames look and feel like granites to exotic wood grains, or other
custom finishes, but without the cost, will accelerate the adoption of
LED signage into many markets. We also are very excited about the use
of our Curtisium(TM) in the markets PermLight serves, which will put
us on a fast-track to many applications."

About Kolorfusion
Kolorfusion is the owner of process patents for three-dimensional
product decoration. The Company's technology is considered a major
breakthrough for product finishing, as the process actually transfers
any design with any colors into a product's coating or directly into
the plastic or aluminum part itself, no matter the shape. The result
is a fully decorated product as durable as the coating or part.
Kolorfusion's technology is ultraviolet resistant, cost effective, and
safe for the environment. Unlike decals, silk screening, or standard
painting, Kolorfusion's patented processes offer a full spectrum of
colors, shades, and designs. Kolorfusion generates revenues through
processing contracts and long-term purchasing and license agreements
with product manufacturers. Kolorfusion continues to expand its
licensing of major OEM's such as Polaris Industries, Moen, PSE, DeeZee,
Garrity Industries and provide processing for customers such as Daisy,
Gerber, Tru-Glo, MasterLock and others.
