WiseVillage selects MetalFX for enclosure manufacture

EDMONTON, Alberta - WiseVillage Inc., Canadian manufacturer of WiseNav spatial navigation software and WiseStation virtual business center kiosks, has chosen MetalFX as its primary manufacturing partner for their new WiseStation Concierge kiosk model.

WiseStations are a fusion of dynamic digital display for marketing/merchandising and interactive kiosk technology. Equipped with a multitude of features, including mounted video screens, interactive touchscreen, debit and credit card readers, gift card dispensers, printers and on-board phones, WiseStations are geared toward retailers, financial institutions, public services, and the hospitality and entertainment industries.

According to a news release, WiseStation Concierge was designed specifically for the hospitality industry, and is a smaller, more streamlined and more space-efficient version of the original WiseStation. MetalFX will produce the Concierge units, which were custom-designed for WiseVillage.

"Once we unveil the Concierge, we anticipate significant demand for the product within a short period of time," said Lionel Aucoin, president of WiseVillage.
