For Immediate Release - May 04,

What
the New Solution Machines means to International Foam Solutions, the
customers and the shareholders. It
means that we now have the ability to increase sales by adding larger and
faster reduction machines which will reduce Polystyrene eight (8) times
faster than any previous machines used by IFS. The question, "Can
Polygel be made fast enough?" has been a concern to several prospects
interested in Styro Solve Recycling
Center joint ventures. Recycling centers using the new equipment will be
able to process a substantially higher volume of EPS. The original Styro
Solve Recycling System sold for $2.5 million and has maximum output capacity
of 7.2 million pounds of polystyrene beads per year. The ability to reduce
4,000 pounds per hour working only 12 hours per day will produce 16.8
million pounds of polystyrene beads per year at increase expenditure to a
recycling center of only $400,000.
Currently, orders for
three (3) Solutions Machine are being negotiated. Two of the units are the SM3500
and one is the new Solution unit priced at $59,995. Along with the three machines
the customers will be ordering four (4) Fifty five gallon drums of Styro
Solve for each machine. These orders represent sales in excess of $128,000. Sales of additional Styro Solve to these customers should be
about 310 Drums per month with a return of Polygel of up to 495 Metric Tons
per month.
Just one Styro Solve
Recycling line can now produce 495 Metric Tons a month of polystyrene beads.
IFS has already received orders for all of the beads we can
produce at prices ranging from .45 to .79 per pound. Sale of the the 17.325
million pounds produced by a recycling center should therefore produce
revenues from $7.7 to $13.7 million.
The equipment for the
complete Styro Solve Recycling Line takes about six (6) months to produce.

The
IFS demonstration of polystyrene recycling held in Kentucky in April has
generated a great deal of interest in the Styro Solve System .
We have received several inquires for much larger capacity Solution
Machines than IFS has offered in the past.
As a result we have been in contact with several companies that
manufacture larger machines. These
machines are able to grind EPS at a rate that exceeds 4,000 pounds per hour.
We plan to include machines of this type in the Solution Machine
product line instead of manufacturing them ourselves.
These new Solution
Machines
will allow our partners to recycle larger volumes per hour which translates
into larger profits. An 8 hour shift will be able to reduce 32,000
pounds of EPS or 11.2 Million pounds per year. This is a significant
increase over the previous capacity of 7 million pounds per year.
The resulting profit margin of a recycling center increases from 47% to over
62%.

The demonstration held at Berstorff
Corporation in Florence, Kentucky on April 20th and 21st
was very successful. Everyone
who attended was impressed with the patented and patent pending Styro Solve System .
The demonstration showed the reduced polystyrene, known as polygel,
being turned back into a saleable polystyrene bead.
A presentation of the environmental benefits of recycling was
presented before the demonstration and Harvey Katz, President if
IFS, made a presentation of the financial benefits of
the Styro Solve System afterwards.
The recycled bead produced at the
demonstration drew favorable comments from all the attendees.
The attendees represented major companies interested in polystyrene
recycling not only from the US but from other countries as well.
IFS was pleased to have such interest shown. One of the attendees commented that IFS has finally shown the
complete system needed for profitable polystyrene recycling.
Everyone received a small sample of the beads along with IFS tee shirts
and key chains to take home.
Everyone one at Berstoff was very
helpful explaining the machine and answering questions.
We would especially like to thank Reiner Bunnenberg, Vice-President
of Berstorff and Martin Mack, Vice-President of Research and Development
for their participation and hospitality.
Berstorff is a major manufacturer of plastic industry machinery.
Their research department
has been very helpful during the development of our
system.
Confidentiality Agreements were
signed and we expect to enter into full contracts in the near future.
A video was shot during the demonstration and we
expect to make a DVD available to potential customers in the near future.

Boca Raton
Trans Global Environmental Group, Inc, in conjunction with
International Foam Solutions, Inc. will be showcasing the innovative Styro Solve System; the worlds most advanced
system for safe, efficient, economical and practical recycling of
polystyrene waste, at the facilities of Berstorff Corporation in
Florence,
Kentucky
on April 20 and 21, 2005
Over 35 corporations, including
Fortune 500, and international companies ranging from Asia to
Wales
have been invited for a first-hand demonstration of this patent
pending, exciting, and innovative recycling method.
The Styro Solve System
uses a
biodegradable and environmentally safe liquid called Styro Solve
that reduces the volume of
polystyrene directly on-site in various size machines called the Solution Machine.
The reduced
polystyrene, known as "polygel", can then be processed into a
saleable bead, flake or chip that can be used by re-converters to make
new products The machines can be used in the
agricultural, food service and packaging industries. Polystyrene
usage in the
United States
exceeds 15 million metric tons annually.
This demonstration is sure to
convince attendees of the environmental and economical attributes of the Styro Solve System.
Contact
Harvey Katz or
Claudia Iovino
@ 561-272-6900 or 561-921-0843 for more details.
