Met-Pro Corporation's Systems Business Unit Receives Equipment Order Totaling
Approximately $800,000

HARLEYSVILLE, Pa., Oct. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Raymond J. De Hont,
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Met-Pro Corporation (NYSE: MPR),
announced today that the Company's Systems business unit has received an
order, totaling approximately $800,000, to supply a thermal oxidizer system to
a chemicals company in the southern United States. This order is expected to
ship during the fourth quarter of the Company's current fiscal year.

The thermal oxidizer system, which includes an integrated quench/scrubber
system supplied by Met-Pro's Duall business unit, will destroy chlorine and
fluorine-laden off gases from ground water and soil remediation sources and
remove the resulting acid gases from the thermal oxidizer flue gas. The system
also includes heat recuperation to minimize auxiliary fuel consumption and
maximize energy efficiency.

"This order follows three other orders for pollution control equipment,
totaling approximately $2.0 million, announced in September," stated De Hont.
"It represents another example of Met-Pro's ability to provide synergistic
solutions that integrate multi-discipline technologies from the Company's
diverse product brands and reinforces Met-Pro Systems' worldwide reputation as
a supplier of choice for field-proven thermal oxidation systems. Met-Pro
Systems was selected by this repeat customer based on their extensive
experience with similar complex applications and the client's confidence in
the reliability, durability and efficiency of Met-Pro's products. In
addition, Met-Pro's ability to package a comprehensive solution utilizing
multiple Met-Pro technologies was also a major factor. We continue to be
encouraged by our success in being selected for these projects and remain
cautiously optimistic that circumstances are improving for the release of
other large projects we have been pursuing."
