Time to use the wayback machine for this scam's filings. From 1997: LMAO Item 1. Description of Business.
A. General Description of Business
ADVEN, INC., a Washington corporation (the "Company"), was incorporated on August 22'nd, 1986. Adven, Inc. began conducting business through its wholly owned subsidiary, Surface Technologies, Inc. ("STI"). STI manufactures a cushioned playground surface which is sold primarily to restaurants, schools, parks and other entities which provide playgrounds for children. STI operates under a license from SAFEPAC, Inc., whereby SAFEPAC has authorized STI to use a patent in the production of the product and its registered trademark "SAFE-T-TURF".
The Company was not able to obtain profitability as expected, due to poor performance by its dealer network, which faced too many installations and warranty problems. As a result, by the end of fiscal 1989, the Company was inactive and nearly insolvent.
