Bach-Hauser May Have Intro Into the Philippines; Letters of Intent Signed to Build Solid Waste Processing Plants In Calamba, Batangas City and Cabanatwan City.

NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 23, 1999--

New York-based Bach-Hauser, Inc. (OTCBB:BHAS) announced today that it has signed letters of intent to build the first Total Recycling System(R) plants in the Philippines. Bach-Hauser's solid waste processing plants are expected to help to alleviate many of the problems caused by rapidly expanding landfills in the cities of Calamba, Batangas City and Cabanatwan City.

Bach-Hauser will design and implement recycling plants in the three Philippine cities utilizing the Total Recycling System(R). The yet-to-be-built plants will have the ability to reduce solid waste in the Philippine cities' landfills by as much as 80 percent.

These letters of intent are a direct result of the marketing efforts of Bach-Hauser's international marketing firm, Solutek Trade. "Solutek Trade was instrumental in acquiring the three letters of intent for Bach-Hauser in the Philippines through their extensive network of contacts with top decision makers throughout the Philippines," says Peter Preston, Vice President of International Sales. "In a matter of a few weeks, Solutek has initiated the signing of three letters of intent and an invitation from the Southern Philippines Development Authority to develop further interior improvement projects."

"The Total Recycling System can help the worsening landfill situation in the Philippines, which is a byproduct of the country's sharp rise in the metropolitan population. The Philippine representatives were impressed with the our ability to divert landfill waste, as well as the plants' ability to create an economic impact through new jobs associated with the plants and their recycled products," adds Preston

Bach-Hauser's recycling methods solve many of the most serious problems commonly associated with waste management. The company's proprietary Total Recycling System(R) can help alleviate the growing waste problems in landfills by nearly 100% of common recyclable products. They can also convert the majority of the rest of the garbage they receive into organic compost, rather than sending it to landfills. The compost can then be resold to local gardeners and agricultural users to improve the area's soil.

There is a growing need for environmentally responsible solutions to waste disposal. In the U.S., government mandates to handle waste in a more responsible and efficient manner have created a $70 billion North America environmental industry. Waste Management Inc. (NYSE:WMI) alone has over a $13 billion market capitalization. Internationally, the market potential is probably even greater.
