HISTORICAL BUSINESS INFORMATION: Tvi Corp. was incorporated as a for-profit corporation under laws of Maryland on January 28, 1977. Tvi Corp. was formed primarily for the exploitation of a patent portfolio acquired from one of the founders. The two principal patents of the portfolio covered an electrically conductive coating and a light-weight cellular concrete.

Tvi Corp. voluntarily filed a Bankruptcy Petition under the provisions of Chapter 11 of the U. S. Bankruptcy Code on March 21, 1991. Its Plan of Reorganization was confirmed by the Court on April 15, 1993, and was essentially implemented by June 30, 1993. Tvi Corp. remained in bankruptcy until it filed Final Reports and Certification during 1996. They were discharged from bankruptcy by the Court on October 3, 1996.

July 24, 2002, the State of Massachusetts has selected Tvi Corp. Mass Casualty Decontamination Systems for state-wide application of all decontamination systems. The first two orders for 28 Decontamination Systems total more than $1,500,000. The patented system was designed with the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) to allow First Responders to rapidly decontaminate victims of a Weapons of Mass Destruction attack, such as a nuclear, biological, or chemical weapon. Massachusetts is one of the first states to develop a statewide program for the decontamination of its citizens.
