4 Customers and Markets Our Customers

5 What Our Customers Say About Us From the Dow Chemicals Intranet Website “VisiMix: This is a highly accessible PC software for mixing calculations available from VisiMix Ltd., an Israeli company. It is a rating calculation tool for both non- reactive and reactive mixing involving blending, solid suspension, gas dispersion, liquid-liquid dispersion, or heat transfer processes in stirred vessels. It calculates the important process parameters for single- and two-phase systems – power consumption, circulation rates, local concentrations of solutes and suspended particles, drop size, concentrations of reactants, etc … ” Dr. Victor Atiemo-Obeng Dow Chemicals Co.

6 What Our Customers Say About Us “I am very pleased in applying your software.” L'Oreal, France “We have been using VisiMix. We have found it an accurate tool... Based on our success with the product, our Japanese colleagues at Fuji Xerox have bought a copy for their work.” Emily Moore, Xerox Research Center of Canada
