Vancouver-based A2Z Technologies Canada Corp. (TSX-Venture:AZ) announced Tuesday that its proprietary, patent pending Fuel Tank Intelligent Containment System (FTICS) was spotlighted in the media.
It won coverage on Israel's nationwide news network, besides receiving a strong endorsement from the Or Yarok Association for Safer Driving in Israel, encouraging the appropriate bodies to mandate the system to save lives from fires caused by automobile collisions.
The televised segment highlighted Israel's 3,000 vehicle fires annually and showcased a detailed explanation of how the FTICS technology works. It included footage of some of A2Z's other products and was shot on-location at A2Z's lab in Israel.
Or Yarok Communications Official Oz Dror, stated, "At an accident, every second is critical. This large number, eight vehicles a day, means that the state has to demand that new vehicles entering the market must install these systems, as this will prevent loss of lives."
Shares took on eight cents, or 11.1%, to 80 cents, on volume of 68,000 shares.
