"We are excited to have secured this position and to get started on this great adventure. Our partnership with Astra Global Solutions in bringing their book of waste processing and conversion technology to the Dominican Republic will serve as a valuable model for turning waste into viable commodities for the benefit of the countries we serve and all the Caribbean," said Andrew Keesee, president of Inti Global Dominicana.
Astra will benefit from its relationship with AGS as it advances business development activities in various regions around the world. Astra's subsidiary Regreen Technologies Inc. has licensed the territory to AGS for the Regreen Waste to Energy System and will provide the equipment.
"We are excited to work with Inti Global Domincana and Astra to remediate the agricultural waste problem while providing jobs, cleaning the local environment, and producing valuable commodities that will positively impact the Dominican Republic’s GDP and the health and welfare of its citizens," stated Douglas D. Hampton, president and CEO of Astra Global Solutions, Inc.
