Biomedical Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc. ("BMTS" or the "Company") (OTCBB: BMTL) is pleased to announce the BMTS in-store Demolizer® II Sharps Disposal Program and the placement of its first Demolizer® II in a Kroger pharmacy. This program is designed to establish a valuable, full service sharps life cycle solution to pharmacy syringe customers. With over 2000 retail pharmacy outlets in the U.S., the placement of the first system in a Kroger pharmacy is an important benchmark for BMTS.

BMTS believes this program will help to build national awareness of the growing public health and environmental problems associated with the improper or unsafe transportation and disposal of sharps waste generated at home. By establishing a safe, environmentally friendly and convenient in-store disposal method BMTS hopes to encourage the estimated 9 million people in the U.S. that administer 3 billion injections at home annually to take advantage of the in-store Demolizer® II sharps disposal program.

The first of its kind, this in-store sharps disposal program provides a safe and environmentally friendly biomedical waste disposal alternative designed to enable diabetics and others using syringes at home to safely destroy their sharps waste by bringing it back to their pharmacy when replenishing treatment supplies.

Don Cox, President and CEO of BMTS, explains, "The ultimate goal of the in-store Demolizer® II sharps disposal program is to establish the Demolizer® II as the preferred sharps disposal system in the pharmacy market. The faster we expand our brand presence, the sooner we can start reaping financial rewards from our patented Demolizer® technology in the pharmacy program, while at the same time reducing the negative public and environmental impact of improper disposal."

About the Demolizer® II

The Demolizer® II is the GREEN alternative to biomedical waste disposal. The device is the only patented, portable, and self-contained system able to process both sharps and typical red bag biomedical waste onsite. The processed waste is rendered sterile and discarded as common trash eliminating up to 100% of the cost associated with its disposal. The Demolizer® II meets or exceeds all EPA and CDC guidelines and is approved or meets treatment requirements in 47 states after review by 78 governmental agencies. The device uses no chemicals or liquids, plugs into a normal outlet through a surge protector, and automatically records and prints state required documentation. The Demolizer® II provides a safer, more environmentally GREEN method for biomedical waste disposal.
