Met-Pro Corporation's Systems Business Unit Receives Equipment Order Totaling
Approximately $500,000


HARLEYSVILLE, Pa., July 14 /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 $500,000, to supply a thermal oxidation system
to a landfill gas recovery and purification facility in the southern United
States. This order is expected to ship during the third quarter of the
Company's current fiscal year. 

The equipment to be supplied will destroy off gases from a landfill gas
recovery and purification system to significantly reduce the level of methane
emissions, which when compared to carbon dioxide, have more than 20 times the
impact on the greenhouse effect in the Earth's atmosphere. The equipment
supplied will also include provisions for future energy recovery. 

"This is the second thermal oxidizer ordered through the same customer in less
than a year illustrating their confidence in Met-Pro Systems' highly energy
efficient oxidation equipment and Systems' ability to uniquely tailor their
designs to meet customer requirements," stated De Hont. "This order reinforces
Met-Pro Systems' reputation as a supplier of choice for field-proven thermal
oxidation systems. It represents another example of Met-Pro's wide range of
solutions to help solve the challenges of protecting our environment while
serving business and industry around the world."
