ETC Receives Large Industrial Sterilization Systems Contract

Southampton, Pa, July 24, 2006: Environmental Tectonics Corporation's (Amex: ETC) ("ETC" or the "Company") Sterilizer Division announced today it has been awarded a major contract from a large international contract sterilization firm to supply a new Industrial Ethylene Oxide Sterilization Plant.

ETC was selected, in part, because of the advanced state of ETC's Advantage Control System. ETC has invested heavily in providing the first "off-the-shelf" sterilizer control system specifically designed to address the U.S. Food And Drug Administration's 21 CFR Part 11 regulations for Electronic Record-Keeping and Digital Signatures. Furthermore, ETC's unique air jacketing system will save the customer significant money in utility savings over the traditional water jackets supplied by ETC's competitors.

William F. Mitchell, ETC's President and Chairman, commented, "We are pleased to have been selected to provide the future capacity for this renowned international client. ETC has invested more research and development capital than any other supplier in the industry and we are now beginning to reap the benefit of those investments to the benefit of our clients."
