StingRay Manufacturing

Despite this article having a few refs, none of them actually assert that the company is notable. The press-release is actually self published through one of the free press release websites. Wizard191 (talk) 22:38, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

StingRay Manufacturing is notable. While it is a new corporation it is important to note that is evolved from The MART Corporation as stated in the article. MART is the inventor of the power wash process that was instrumental in eliminating the use of Tri Clor in cleaning. This article published by Turi.org explains: www.turi.org/content/download/3549/43887/file/techreport22.pdf Since MART has gone out of business it is significant to note that the developers of the original technology have moved to a new product name and that the same technology continues to be developed and refined. One of the engineers, Marc Treppler, at StingRay has numerous patents relating to parts washer technology. www.patentuniverse.com/US5782252.html    www.patentuniverse.com/US5971063.html  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Grupler (talk • contribs) 05:35, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - There is no coverage about this company in reliable sources. -- Whpq (talk) 19:02, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete: Don't see any sources for notability according to WP:ORG. Dewritech (talk) 10:22, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete I'm sure the company and its products are important to its customers, but it fails the Wikipedia criteria for notability. Google news provides zero hits about this company. LinkedIn informs me that it's a privately held company, founded in 2009, with 24 employees. References at the article are self-referential or otherwise not WP:RS reliable sources. --MelanieN (talk) 15:05, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
