Dear
Ms
Kocchi,

Engineered
Distribution
Specialties
LLC
(
EnDiSys)
is
a
specialty
equipment
manufacturer
that
is
actively
working
with
the
urethane
spray
industry
to
offer
next
generation
rigid
spray
foam
equipment.
We
would
like
to
make
the
EPA
aware
of
our
commercial
introduction
of
a
complete
product
line
of
equipment
designed
for
rigid
spray
foam
systems
using
HCFC
141b
blowing
agent
alternatives.
The
Poly
XP
can
be
used
with
either
Exxsol
 
Blowing
Agent
or
Enovate

3000
based
systems
to
meet
this
emerging
industry
requirement.

We
began
commercially
selling
these
machines
in
September
2003
and
general
interest
during
customer
demonstrations
has
been
relatively
high.
Our
commercial
efforts
to
offer
these
new
units
however
has
been
hampered
by
the
continued
availability
of
HCFC
141b
systems
in
the
market
place
and
the
reluctance
of
many
in
the
spray
foam
community
to
accept
change.
We
feel
the
EPA
should
move
forward
to
ban
the
use
of
HCFC
141b
now
that
cost
competitive
non­
ozone­
depleting
alternative
formulations
and
equipment
are
clearly
commercially
available.

EnDiSys
has
developed
classified
spray
equipment
that
meets
a
range
of
industry
requirements.
Our
Poly
XP
proportioners
can
be
configured
to
deliver
foam
at
26
or
50
lbs/
min
with
either
air
or
hydraulic
systems.
In
addition,
EnDiSys
currently
manufactures
trailers
for
spray
applications
and
have
the
capability
to
produce
trailers
configured
for
a
range
of
blowing
agent
options.
Our
current
HCFC
141b
trailer
designs
and
options
can
be
modified
to
meet
the
unique
requirements
of
the
new
alternatives.

Our
equipment
has
been
used
with
contractor
groups
in
a
series
of
demonstrations
and
training
programs
around
the
country
working
with
NCFI
and
others.
We
will
be
giving
contractors
the
opportunity
to
evaluate
our
equipment
once
again
at
the
Spray
Foam
2004
show
in
Reno,
NV
on
February
10.
EnDiSys
is
eager
to
work
with
interested
spray
foam
industry
groups
and
individuals
to
make
this
equipment
widely
available.
We
plan
to
continue
to
offer
the
spray
foam
sector
next
generation
equipment
however
we
require
assistance
from
the
U.
S.
EPA
to
support
this
industry
transition.

Please
contact
us
if
you
wish
to
discuss
the
transition
issues
or
have
additional
questions
regarding
the
EnDiSys
Poly
XP
product
line.

Sincerely,

Jeffrey
Striggow
President
