American Fire Retardant Announces Public Demonstration of GloveBox on Tuesday,

Business Editors
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 3, 2004--American Fire Retardant Corp. (OTCBB:AFRR) announced today that the redesigned GloveBox(TM) will be completed on Feb. 12, 2004 and on Tuesday, Feb. 17, there will be a public demonstration of the GloveBox at the research center in San Diego. The GloveBox is a revolutionary, patented, automated latex glove dispenser targeting sterile (medical, laboratory), protective (dental, health, beauty, janitorial) and clean room (manufacturing) environments that solves a long-standing contamination problem caused by the normal retrieval and donning of gloves from a standard glove box. With its patented, free-standing dispenser (looking much like a small filing cabinet), users select from two glove sizes, slip their hands through sealed openings into air-filled gloves, then hit a foot switch to release the gloves onto their hands. A significant benefit of the GloveBox is its unique design feature that permits the dispensing of unpowdered gloves that are increasingly the cause of both contamination and communicable health problems. Stephen F. Owens, president of American Fire Retardant Corp., said, "Responding to suggestions from groups who had seen the original model demonstrated, the GloveBox was redesigned to make it portable. So the new, portable GloveBox will be completed and ready for a public demonstration at the research center in San Diego and is located at 6156 Mission Gorge Road. As I said in earlier press releases, we feel the successful demonstrations done earlier and this demonstration will show that the GloveBox will have a strong demand in the medical field and other related fields that require sterile environments."
