This upcoming 3rd quarter should be fun...just in time for the NFDA party in New Orleans. IMO MATW and ETNL are both going to have a great line of products to share with all the funeral professionals in attendance.

ETNL and MATW working together:

On February 25, 2010 the Company announced in an 8K filing its new manufacturing and distribution partnership with Matthews International (NASDAQ: MATW). The term of this agreement is 2-years and requires Matthews International to purchase a minimum number of products from Eternal Image for sale in their network of Funeral Homes and Cemeteries. The territory of this agreement is North America.

Per the agreement, Matthews International is required to purchase a minimum: 250 Star Trek Urns (which Product and design have been previously approved); 720 Vatican Observatory Urns; 200 Vatican Observatory bronze memorial pieces; and 2,000 Vatican Observatory caskets during each calendar year. The design of the Vatican products has not been approved yet. The sale of these products will not commence until all product designs have been approved for manufacturing by Eternal Image. Currently, we estimate the rollout of these new products to be in the third quarter of 2010.

FROM the MATW website...we know with the new Urns and Caskets, I look for the MATW website to be updated from the following, to introduce the Vatican and the Star Trek lineup:

The Casket segment is a leading manufacturer and distributor of caskets
in North America, producing a wide variety of wood and metal caskets.
It is also a leader in providing assortment planning and merchandising
and display products for funeral service businesses. These products assist
funeral service professionals in providing value and satisfaction to their
client families.

The Cremation segment is the leading designer and manufacturer of
cremation equipment and cremation-related products in North America.
Cremation equipment and products are sold primarily to funeral homes,
cemeteries, crematories, animal disposers and veterinarians within North
America, Europe, Australia and Asia. The segment also manufactures
environmentally-friendly caskets, which are manufactured from wood
fibers and corrugated materials covered with cloth, or paper veneer, which
gives the appearance of wood.
