£1million Funding Boost for Cascade Technologies
Jun 13 2008
The Univeristy of Strathclyde spin-out company drove the third round of funding alongside existing shareholders which includes Bank of Scotland Corporate, Braveheart Investment Group plc, Scottish Enterpriseâs
Scottish Co-investment Fund (SCF) and PUK Ventures.
Cascade Technologies has developed and patented the worldâs first real-time technology for the detection, measurement and monitoring of gas
emissions and explosives through its revolutionary use of quantum cascade lasers.
In the past year Cascadeâs technology has surpassed rigorous legislation requirements which has led to a sharp increase in sales throughout Europe and the USA.
The companyâs security sensors have also undergone successful trials with the Home Office and the Ministry of Defence.
Iain Howieson, managing director of Cascade Technologies, said the new round of funding has been designed to support Cascadeâs sales and
marketing efforts as it builds its order book. He added: âCascade is in an exciting position to capitalise on the recent developments in trialling its technology and we are delighted to have sustained backing from our core investors. We look forward to taking more of our products to market and increasing our sales pipeline.â
