Ritemp to be expanded into medical sector

ustralian Ritemp Technologies's evaporative cooling technology for moulds will be applied by US firm F&S Tool in tooling for the medical market. This designation provides commercial advantages for F&S clients to collaborate with and develop application solutions using the patented Ritemp cooling technology.

In February, Canadian firm Mold-Masters formalised an agreement with Ritemp for the exclusive use of the technology in hot runner applications. Both the agreements come through Ritemp's agent in the US, Ygrene Technologies.
