DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla., June 10, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Capstone Companies, Inc. (OTCQB:CAPC), a leader in the design and manufacture of specialty power failure lighting solutions and innovator of consumer safety and security products for the Hospitality, Retail and Institutional channels, announced today that strong end-user demand for its safety and security lighting solutions has led to significant backlog growth.
Gerry McClinton, Capstone's Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer commented, "Our efforts to provide high value safety and security lighting solutions is clearly gaining ground with end users as evidenced by our strong backlog, which is exceeding $8.0 million for shipments through the third quarter of this year.

Stewart Wallach, Capstone's Chief Executive Officer added, "Our innovative product designs and greater shelf presence has led to increased brand awareness for Capstone Industries lighting products. Strong end-user demand for the Eco-i-Lite power failure safety lights and our line of motion sensor lighting solutions has resulted in new orders from some of our major customers."
