September 18, 2008: Ecology Coatings Inc., a maker of nanotechnology-enabled, ultra-violet curable advanced materials, has appointed Robert Crockett as its CEO, replacing Richard Stromback, who will remain chairman of the company’s board.

“Bob has a record of bridging unmet market needs with technology-based products,” stated Stromback. “His more than 20 years of experience in successfully taking new technology to diverse markets and achieving significant new business growth with companies such as LDM Technologies, one of the largest privately-held, plastic-based automotive suppliers in North America, adds significant depth to our management team. His extensive background in analyzing markets, building tactical sales initiatives, and executing leadership positioning strategies is particularly important, as we accelerate the commercialization of our clean technology UV-cured coatings.”

“This is an opportune time to be joining Ecology Coatings,” said Crockett. “I look forward to working closely with Ecology’s management team as we commercialize the company’s line of clean technology UV-cured coatings and bring new products to expanding markets.”
