Profire Files for New Patent

Lindon — Profire Energy, Inc., which manufactures, installs and services burner management systems and other combustion management technologies for the oil and gas industry, has filed a patent application related to a current research and development initiative.

The patent application is for a valve-train-related project that is being developed by the company, one of five projects announced by the company earlier this year.

“We believe this application could result in a number of patents—perhaps as many as nine—within the next year,” said Justin Hatch, vice president of business development at Profire. “As we continue to develop new technologies for the oil and gas industry, we are keenly aware of the importance of protecting such technologies. To that end, we anticipate additional patent applications this year as we pursue valuable advancements for the industry.”

This marks the fourth patent application filed by the company in the past 12 months, with more applications expected later this year.
