WHITE SYSTEMS AND TALYST ALIGN  
 

KENILWORTH, N.J. (September 25, 2006): White Systems and Talyst have reached a long-term arrangement that will enable Talyst customers to benefit from the space-saving, inventory handling carousels manufactured by White Systems. It also establishes international marketing rights.

Talyst provides central pharmacy packaging, labeling, inventory and storage solutions to hospital pharmacies, true to its tagline, “Engineering the Intelligent Pharmacy™.”

“Talyst is going after a broad but distinct slice of hospitals, to provide medication bar-coding and inventory capabilities to the middle-market,” said John C. Molloy, president and chief operating officer, White Systems. “By combining our inventory and storage advantages with Talyst's software, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. This arrangement should help advance both companies to their next levels.”

Affiliating with White Systems gives Talyst customers more options and ensures consistency, while providing equipment that is manufactured domestically, unlike that of its major competitors. The carousel systems offer the highest level of security and pick accuracy - crucial benefits for pharmaceutical industry applications. White Systems also supports their carousels with a nationwide, dedicated service organization.

Further, Talyst gains the exclusive worldwide rights to market White Systems carousels to the pharmaceutical market, and the two companies agreed to collaborate to develop next-generation carousels that are specifically suited to pharmacy and other health care needs.
“Our dramatic growth is due largely to our ability to link key elements in the pharmacy supply chain, using software and materials handling equipment like mechanical carousels, which we market under the name AutoCarousel™,” explained James E. Torina, chairman, president and chief executive officer.
