Arizona-Based SKYE International Begins Production of New 'FORTIS(TM)' Tankless Electric Water Heater; Launch of New Premium Appliance Brand Sets Industry Stage.

CHANDLER, Ariz. -- Consumers will soon have an exciting and efficient new, premium home appliance brand choice with the announcement from SKYE International Inc. (OTCBB: SKYY) that manufacturing will begin on its highly anticipated FORTIS(TM) line of patented, high-performance tankless electric water heaters.

According to SKYE President Thomas Kreitzer, manufacturing of the FORTIS(TM) line of tankless electric water heaters now elevates tankless technology to a new level. The introduction of FORTIS(TM) to the marketplace means that American families can enjoy the freedom of endless hot water while enjoying the energy savings that result from this ultra-efficient appliance.

"The FORTIS(TM) line will set a new industry benchmark and we are excited that it will soon be available to consumers in the marketplace," Kreitzer said.

According to Kreitzer, consumers have developed brand preferences for home appliances like refrigerators, ovens and even plumbing fixtures. Now, even water heaters are gaining consumer brand recognition and SKYE aims to be the premium brand of choice for the benefit-aware consumer who is looking for what is best for their family.

"From the high-end stainless steel finish to the clearly recognizable SKYE logo, the FORTIS(TM) has brand features that discerning homebuyers will recognize and prefer in making their home even more livable and family-friendly," Kreitzer said.

Kreitzer said in the past, water heaters were considered a necessary, but often overlooked appliance. Now, as consumers become more knowledgeable and aware of specific features and benefits, he expects consumers will exercise brand preference in the water heater category and ask for the SKYE brand from their homebuilder or contractor.

Kreitzer explained that the FORTIS(TM) will join the exclusive list of premium appliances that consumers look to add to the value and comfort of their homes.

According to Kreitzer, the manufacturing process began with SKYE issuing its first purchase order for product with Florida-based Jabil Circuit Inc. (NYSE: JBL). Jabil will initially manufacture the FORTIS(TM) line in their 190,000 square foot Tempe, Ariz., facility that is near SKYE's headquarters in Chandler, Ariz.

"This exciting announcement is a very important step forward in the evolution of SKYE International," said Kreitzer. "We are looking forward to a long relationship with Jabil now that we have commenced production under the Manufacturing Services Agreement announced by SKYE in February of this year," he said.

Tankless electric water heaters have been popular in Europe and Asia and industry leaders believe that demand in the U.S. market will be substantial because of the many advantages of this technology. Some of the advantages include unlimited hot water as compared to traditional water heaters, as well as significant economic and health benefits.

According to Kreitzer, there are more than 10 million water heaters replaced every year in North America, in addition to the millions of new homes that are being built. The market is enormous and ready to move away from old technology to a better, advanced and more efficient water heating process.

Kreitzer explained that tankless technology is superior in every way. From conserving energy to providing endless hot water, tankless appliances are rapidly becoming the water heater of choice for many American families.
