Cyntech Technologies Uncovers Not So Grave Market.

CONYERS, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 17, 1999--

Cyntech Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ Bulletin Board:CYNT) announced today their intent to utilize their existing focus of post consumer rubber recycling to manufacture, market, and distribute a line of products indigenous to post consumer crumb rubber such as burial vaults, children's playground mats, and portable hydrophobic retention walls.

Following in the companies focus to identify new product lines that are exceptionally economically high yielding, less hazardous material risk, and less effort in dominant market penetration and manufacture ramp up as referenced in the news release issued August 13, 1999, Ike Yancy, Vice President of CYNTECH, stated the following: "As we strive to complete the

physical dimension of our operations that will allow us to produce alternative fuel products for the petrochemical industry, we will now be able to competently alleviate a greater portion of the tire waste burden by producing products with exceptionally high returns and using larger amounts of recycled crumb rubber to produce them. We are excited about our complimentary developments, and will pursue them with vigor and passion."

Burial vaults and liners typically realize between 200%-400% markup, and coupled with State mandates now requiring every traditional burial to utilize such a vault or liner to prevent remains contacting groundwater resources, and approximately 1.7 million traditional burials in 1994 with an industry growth rate exceeding 27%, this smaller but highly lucrative market may prove to be CYNTECH'S strongest.

Tandem with the initiation of burial vault production, CYNTECH TTECHNOLOGIES also intends to manufacture other product lines similar in manufacture: playground mats, industrial floor pads, automotive belts and hoses, and outdoor matting applications. Such markets are expected to realize similar economic returns.
