MONTREAL, Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PyroGenesis Inc. (http://pyrogenesis.com) (TSX: PYR) (OTCQX: PYRGF) (FRA: 8PY), a high-tech company (the “Company” or “PyroGenesis”) that designs, develops, manufactures and commercializes advanced plasma processes and sustainable solutions which are geared to reduce greenhouse gases (GHG) and address environmental pollutants, is pleased to announced that the Company’s name has been changed to PyroGenesis Inc. from PyroGenesis Canada Inc.

This name change does not involve any restructuring, change of control, or other corporate reorganization. This decision solely pertains to a more inclusive and internationally resonant brand image. The name change does not affect trading of the Company’s shares. The shares will continue to trade on the TSX under the symbol PYR and through the OTCQX under the symbol PYRGF. The new corporate name was effective on the Canadian and US capital markets as of November 11, 2024, with no change to the stock symbols.

Additionally, the Company is pleased to announce that it has recently moved its headquarters to a larger location in downtown Montreal. The move comes as a result of the Company having outgrown its previous headquarters after more than 30 years in Montreal’s historic Griffintown neighbourhood. The new office location resides in the heart of downtown near Montreal Central Station, the Queen Elizabeth Hotel, and the Bell Centre arena (home of the Montreal Canadiens), and provides more modern amenities and a smarter office layout, while also providing easier access for employees and customers that use public transit.

PyroGenesis’ new corporate headquarters are now located at 1100 René-Lévesque Boulevard West, Suite 1825, Montréal, Québec, Canada H3B 4N4. Phone numbers will remain the same, with 514-937-0002 as the main line.
