ThermaFreeze(TM) Products Corporation Announced Today the Adoption of ThermaFreeze(TM) Refrigerant By Hershey Gifts

Posted on: Friday, 5 October 2007, 18:00 CDT

ThermaFreeze(TM) Products Corporation (PINKSHEETS: TFZP) announced today that it is supplying Hershey Gifts with ThermaFreeze(TM) refrigerant for protection of perishable chocolate products in transit.

"Hershey has a long history of manufacturing the highest quality chocolate confections and we welcome the opportunity to partner with Hershey in providing a superior cold chain solution for shipping Hershey Gifts which are delivered directly to consumers," said Joe Murray, President of ThermaFreeze Products Corp.

ThermaFreeze(TM) (http://www.thermafreeze.com) designed, built and delivered one of its proprietary ThermaFreeze(TM) processing machines to a center close to Hershey Gift's 400,000 square foot distribution center in central Illinois. The innovative machine automates processing and significantly reduces labor cost, time and refrigerant inventory storage.

Where it takes over three weeks for a full pallet of gel packs to freeze solid in a cold storage locker, the new, proprietary machine, operated by one person in an eight hour shift, processes several thousand pounds of ThermaFreeze(TM) refrigerant pads.

"We've developed a reputation for delivering quality products and cold chain solutions for our customers and will continue to secure new business relationships of this magnitude. ThermaFreeze's(TM) ability to protect perishable products, combined with an overall cost reduction potential, is unlike anything currently in use," Murray added.

For further information, shareholders and non-shareholders are encouraged to contact the Company's Investor Relations.
