Ambient Scent Comes to Goodwill Stores in Wisconsin, Chicago
Prolitec's Fragrance Technology Creates a Crisp Atmosphere in 44 Locations
MILWAUKEE, WI -- August 11, 2011 -- Two of the hottest trends in retail -- the rise of value shopping and the use of ambient scent to create a more pleasant atmosphere for customers -- are coming together at over 40 stores in southeastern Wisconsin and metropolitan Chicago. But the retailer now rolling out Prolitec, Inc.'s (http://www.prolitec.com) ambient-scenting technologies is neither a fashion tenant at the mall nor a big-box warehouse out on the strip -- it is a 92-year-old, non-profit organization, Goodwill Industries of Southeastern Wisconsin, Inc.
Following tests in four locations, Goodwill is now initiating Prolitec ambient scenting services in all 44 of its stores in Wisconsin and Illinois. All locations, which include four under construction or in the process of opening, will utilize a signature scent featuring hints of sweet orange and honeysuckle, custom-designed by Milwaukee-based Prolitec to create a clean, crisp atmosphere.

New ‘Always On’ Air-Sanitizer Fills Critical Gap In Infection Control
--Prolitec’s aria™ System Targets Airborne Bacteria
NEW ORLEANS -- July 12, 2010 -- Hand-washing and frequent wiping of surfaces like counters and handrails are necessary elements in institutional infection-control protocols. Effective as these techniques are, however, they are labor-intensive, not automated, and do nothing to counter airborne bacteria—one of the primary mechanisms for the spread of disease. With the introduction of Prolitec, Inc.’s aria™ air-sanitizing agent, assisted-living facilities, hospitals, medical offices, and other enclosed spaces finally have a means of addressing this critical gap in infection control.
Prolitec’s Aerobiology and Infection Control division unveiled the new aria™ system today at the annual conference of the Washington, D.C.-based Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, in New Orleans.
