CJB Industries has announced their expansion into developing Salvus Detection Technology, the world’s first handheld chemical and biological interferometric detector. The Latin word for safe, Salvus is designed to serve the food and agriculture, life sciences, and specialty chemical industries. Clinton Beeland, president and CEO, stated that they wanted to have a positive impact on the community while supporting health, food, and agriculture without focusing on one specific industry.
Located in Valdosta, Salvus benefits from the network of universities, colleges, technology, and science labs in the surrounding Atlanta, Orlando, Tampa, and Gainesville areas. The technology has been backed by years of research and testing at the Georgia Tech Research Institute, with CJB Industries partnering with Georgia Tech for production and manufacturing.
At an open house event, city and county officials, community partners, and science and technology enthusiasts were able to tour the newly renovated facility and see demonstrations of the handheld Salvus device. The device, which can rapidly identify contaminants or beneficial substances in various environments, has multiple agreements with collaborative partners and plans to launch commercially in 2023.
Beeland emphasized the company’s commitment to reinvesting in the community and supporting health, food, and agricultural industries. By choosing a platform that allows them to make a broad impact, CJB Industries aims to bring innovation and expertise to various sectors through the development of Salvus Detection Technology.
