We at Green Gas Supply have studied and tested MagneGas2® and feel that there is no better metal cutting fuel to expand rapidly into this market. We were extremely pleased with the results, as multiple tests have shown that MagneGas2® cuts cleaner and faster than acetylene which is ideal for this market where productivity is key to success. We look forward to rolling out MagneGas2® and rapidly expanding into multiple regions of the South."
Ermanno Santilli, CEO of MagneGas, commented, "We are excited to be joining forces with Green Gas Supply to expand MagneGas® availability in the South.
