CLARINDA, Iowa, April 28, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Naturally Iowa, Inc. (Pink Sheets:NLIA) announced today that it has received additional news coverage for its product and strategy initiatives. Speaking on the subject, William Horner, the Company's President and CEO, stated that, "It is good to hear from our loyal stockholders who share Naturally Iowa's vision for a cleaner environment and a reduction in the use of fossil fuels." He went on to say that it is ". . . also gratifying when major news media outlets, including Time Magazine, highlight alternatives to traditional oil-based plastics!"
The current issue of Time (May 3, 2010 ) does just that in an article entitled, "The Promise and Pitfalls of Bioplastic". After a brief description of Naturally Iowa's plan to pay particular attention to where the bottles go after consumer use, Horner is quoted, "We want to touch the bottle after it's used and know where it is going to go."
This approach has been the hallmark of Naturally Iowa's plan for Green Bottle Spring Water since its inception. On September 23rd , 2008, at the press conference in the US House of Representatives, as Green Bottle Spring Water was introduced, Horner stated then that " . . .the containers' end of life is just as important to us as where they come from in the beginning." (The Green The Capitol Initiative, led by Dan Beard, Chief Administrative Officer of the US House of Representatives, and Perry Plumart, Director of Special Projects, can be seen on videos on the Naturally Iowa home page at http://www.naturallyiowa.com/">www.naturallyiowa.com.) Since that time, articles about the US House installation have appeared in the August, 2009, edition of Readers Digest, in two articles in USA TODAY, in the September, 2009, issue of the Continental Airline Magazine, in several issues of BioPlastics Magazine published in Germany, and in numerous television and radio shows.
Horner concluded his remarks by saying, "We believe that Naturally Iowa's product line has potential and can be viewed as being 'in the zone' for the thousands of private and public companies that are aggressively moving to reduce dependence on foreign oil, while, at the same time, helping to clean up our environment. We intend to give more examples of the ways that organizations are approaching this task as our Green Bottle Spring Water, combined with our on-site system of high-speed composting, spreads to sites throughout the country. Naturally Iowa's informed and committed shareholders may assist in communicating our unique program to interested individuals, businesses, companies and organizations that may be looking for a "cradle-to-cradle" solution by utilizing our website (http://www.naturallyiowa.com/">www.naturallyiowa.com) to move the program forward."
