Underwater Logging: Hollund Industrial Marine, Inc. Launches Public Relations and Investor Relations Initiative

BRANSON, MO, Oct. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Hollund Industrial Marine, Inc. (Pink Sheets: HIMR) (www.HollundIndustrial.com) today announced that the company recently began a series of information meetings with members of the financial community in Chicago. At the presentation, Michael Lacy, CEO of Hollund Industrial Marine described the company's business focus and market opportunities to a group of financial managers and investors.

"Today there are an estimated 300 million trees that are flooded in dam reservoirs around the world. Below the water the trees are no longer living, yet they remain preserved and viable for a variety of uses. It makes economic and environmental sense to use those trees instead of cutting down living trees"; Mr. Lacy told the group of investors.

He added, "Cutting trees under water on a commercial scale has challenged forest companies for years. Diver-based logging methods have proven to be inefficient and dangerous. TigerLynk was specifically designed for this unique application and the technology is proven on a smaller scale. The next-generation of TigerLynk underwater logging equipment will evolve the product from prototype to commercial model for our exciting entry into this lucrative 'green' market."

The company announced that Mr. Lacy plans to make further presentations in other financial centers in the US. "I look forward to sharing our unique story and our innovative solution to underwater logging with investors across the country", said Mr. Lacy.

Hollund Industrial Marine, Inc. (Pink Sheets: HIMR) (www.HollundIndustrial.com) is focused on commercializing patented TigerLynk technology (www.TigerLynk.com) for the underwater logging industry. TigerLynk is a heavy machine system that utilizes a vessel-mounted robotic arm with vision enhancement systems to remotely locate, cut, and retrieve timber from a variety of underwater sources. The TigerLynk concept has been proven safe and efficient in commercial application.
