Business Editors

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 25, 2000

Airtech International Group, Inc. (OTCBB:AIRG) announced today it has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to acquire 100% of Southern Therapy Inc., an Austin, Texas based Home Medical Equipment Provider (HME).

Airtech CFO & General Counsel James Halter, stated, "Southern Therapy is a well managed and mature Company with an impressive track record of selling high end products. The Company has a number of very positive working relationships with Federal, State and Private Insurance carriers. Sales are principally made to qualified Medicare and private insurance beneficiaries through which the Company accepts assignment from Medicare, Medigap and supplementary Insurance Companies. Southern Therapy is very excited about the opportunity to introduce the Airsopure Model S-950 Portable Air Sterilizer to thousands of their customers." Halter added, "The significance of adding Southern Therapy into Airtech's distribution strategy will considerably aid in meeting our fiscal year 2001 financial projections." Under the terms of the Agreement Southern Therapy will also be the Exclusive Distributor of the Airsopure Model S-950 to the Medical Sector.

Southern Therapy President Calvin Cole said, "The relationship with Airtech will allow us to be a more single source product oriented Company, and focus on strategic market development, versus being a provider of a broad cross-section of (HME) products. Our industry has seen considerable changes and consolidations. The move to Airtech is not only well timed for us, but will help us bridge the gap between other HME's looking to specialize in patients suffering from chronic upper respiratory problems." Mr. Cole will continue to serve as President.

Southern Therapy Chief Financial Officer, James M. Todd stated, "Our revenue is certainly trending upward, due principally to the managed care contracts that are now beginning to realize their potential, and we look forward to continued revenue growth."
