TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc. Announces Hire of New Sales Director as it Grows Its Life Science Sector

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Aug. 16, 2017 -- TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc. (“TOMI”) (OTCQX:TOMZ), a global decontamination company that specializes in disinfection/decontamination sales and services, including SteraMist™, a hydrogen peroxide-based mist/fog registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) for use as a hospital-healthcare disinfectant, announced today that Joe Lyons, a leader in the life science market, will head up its national sales efforts. Lyons, a 30 year veteran in the industry, was an obvious choice for the role as he already had knowledge of the patented SteraMist™ technology which uses Ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP™).

Lyons stated, “I am really looking forward to joining the TOMI team and am very confident that I will easily develop new business in this industry, while also servicing TOMI’s current customer base. Introducing new customers to what is arguably the best disinfecting / decontaminating product on the market today is an exciting opportunity for me.”

Lyons has signed five new companies, representing 24 states, from California to Ohio. These newly acquired opportunities from multiple states demonstrate his ability to grow business quickly. Additional future growth into specific Canadian provinces is planned as TOMI expects to secure required Canadian registrations in November. TOMI has successfully penetrated the Life Science sector both in the U.S. and internationally. Domestically, Pro Ex Services, ARES Scientific, LLC and Best Known Solutions have been selling the technology since 2015.

Dr. Halden Shane, TOMI’s CEO, stated, “With our recently expanded EPA label, the favorable settlement with SixLog to secure more leads in the industry, and the addition of such a seasoned leader in Joe Lyons, we are poised for even greater penetration in the Life Sciences market.”
