Kent, Washington; (July 20, 2008) -A new company-Afton, Inc.-has been formed to market the popular Jomac Ryno and Jomac HydroMetric roller material, as well as Jomac spill control products.

Now, the former Base-Line owner has formed Afton, Inc., in response to demand for the Jomac products. Representation is being sought in various geographic markets and to support industries that can benefit from Afton technology.
