YNVISIBLE SELLS CONTRACT MANUFACTURING SERVICES TO OPV SOLAR CELL COMPANY EPISHINE AB, INCREASES DELIVERIES TO INVISENSE


VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Canada – Ynvisible Interactive Inc. (the "Company" or "Ynvisible”) (TSXV: YNV) (OTCQB: YNVYF) (FRA: 1XNA) announces a partnership with Epishine AB, a world technological leader for organic photovoltaic (OPV) solar energy harvesting devices. Epishine is purchasing roll to roll manufacturing services from Ynvisible Production (formerly Consensum Production AB) in Linköping Sweden. The companies are also partnering to combine Epishine’s solar cells with Ynvisible’s printed electronic displays for use in high volume producible ecological and economically sustainable Internet of Things (IoT) devices and everyday smart objects.


Epishine’s energy harvesting modules use indoor lighting to power sensors and other low power electronics. Ynvisible’s designers and electronics engineers have successfully driven Epishine’s organic solar cells to power Ynvisible’s low power printed electronic displays. Both companies’ technologies and components are based on non-toxic materials and are thin, flexible, and can be designed and cost effectively integrated into a wide range of end applications. The companies will work together to present their joined capabilities to the IoT markets.


“We see strong synergies between Ynvisible's displays and Epishine's light energy harvesting modules. The hardest parts to make thin and flexible in electronics are displays and power sources. Our combined solution is also very environmentally friendly compared to other combinations of displays and power sources." said Mattias Josephson, CEO of Epishine AB.

“We are excited to be partnering with Epishine as their manufacturing partner, but also to be able to begin using Epishine’s solar cells as a powering solution in combination with the displays we offer to clients” said Jani-Mikael Kuusisto, CEO Ynvisible Interactive Inc. “Earlier we’ve proven the activation of our displays with RF energy harvesting – e.g. with RFID reading. Epishine’s solar cells now offer a further exciting means for batteryless and wireless powering of our low-power consuming displays


Invisense AB Places New Order with Ynvisible

Ynvisible further announces that Invisense AB has placed a new production order at Ynvisible Production AB (formerly Consensum Production AB). On October 10, 2019 Ynvisible announced the sale of contract manufacturing services to Invisense AB a world technological leader for passive humidity sensors. The new order concerns the production of Invisense’s new moisture sensor for concrete casting. First delivery is expected in December 2019.

Björn Garplind CEO of Invisense expects great demand for the concrete moisture sensor from the construction Industry. “Today everybody in the construction industry is asking for an easy way to measure moisture levels continuously during the dry out phase in concrete casting.” A safe wireless continuously measuring of the dry out phase gives crucial info that allow considerable time and cost savings in the construction industry.  “We are happy to be Invisense preferred supplier and the new order underlines that we at Ynvisible Production have the competence and capability to scale up Invisense products to high volumes and high quality”, says Tommy Höglund VP of Sales and Marketing at Ynvisible.

Consensum Production Renamed to Ynvisible Production, Open House November 13
