VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 31, 2017 / Canadian Zeolite Corp. (the "Company") (TSX-V: CNZ) (OTCQB: CNZCF) (FSE: ZEON) is proud to announce a non-exclusive distribution deal with a Canadian based distributor. The distributor brings a large well-established network and years of experience using zeolite. He will be introducing the Company's natural zeolite to his network in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta as an additive of up to 2% of finished animal feed. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has approved the Company's Bromley Creek natural zeolite as an animal feed additive. The Distribution Agreement provides the distributor with specific protection, enabling them to service and grow their network while allowing Canadian Zeolite to continue to increase its customer base outside the distributor's network.
Natural zeolites have been used as feed supplements for commercial livestock production for decades. Numerous scientific studies have shown that adding zeolite to livestock diets increases the animals' growth rate, increases feed conversion efficiency, decreases the incidence of intestinal diseases, reduces the toxic effects of ammonia, and produces less odour and noticeably drier manure.
Mr. Ray Paquette CEO adds, "We're very pleased to work with this new distributor. Over the past several months Canadian Zeolite has received many inquiries for product and distribution opportunities. We are moving forward as quickly as possible to qualify these inquiries as we continue to commercialize our natural zeolite. This is another of many expected agreements as we strive to expand our national sales presence and increase the awareness of the multiple uses of natural zeolite in 'green-tech' industries."
Canadian Zeolite continues to work on new certifications and the development of new technologies such as zeoponics and zeolitic substrates for greenhouse and outdoor growing mediums.
On behalf of the Board of Directors
