                  NOTE TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The attached condensed financial information has been prepared in
accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, does not include
all financial note information which might be necessary for a fair
presentation in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Such condensed financial information is unaudited, but in the opinion of
management, includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments and accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of results for
the periods indicated. The net income reported for the periods should not
necessarily be regarded as indicative of net income on an annualized basis;
however, significant variations from the results for the same period of the
previous year, if any, have been disclosed in the accompanying management's
discussion and analysis. Certain reclassifications of prior year's data
have been made to improve comparability.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Notwithstanding a decrease of $15.3 million in the company's net cash
position (cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments less short-
term borrowings and current portion of notes payable, long-term debt and
capital leases) during the first six months of 1995, the company remains
strong in its ability to generate adequate cash to meet the needs of current
operations and to fund strategic initiatives. The decline in the net cash
position is due largely to increased short-term borrowings associated with
financing (i) a business acquisition in Brazil (ii) increases in operating
working capital (primarily increases in accounts receivable generated from
higher sales) and (iii) the replacement of maturing long-term obligations with
short-term debt.  Net cash flow used in operating activities totaled $1.4
million.  Operating working capital increased approximately $10.4 million
as a result of higher sales activity, particularly in Europe, and seasonal
prepayments.  Other major sources and uses of cash during the first six
months of 1995 included: a receipt of $2.0 million related to the 1993 sale
of the SULFA-SCRUB (registered trademark) patents and technology; $4.9 million
in expenditures for additions to property, plant and equipment and other
assets; the purchase on May 31, 1995 of a 90% interest in Celumi Ltda., a
Brazilian metalworking business, for approximately $6.4 million in cash and
notes, and dividend payments of $3.0 million.  The current ratio at
June 30, 1995 was 1.6/1 as compared to 1.9/1 at December 31, 1994 primarily
reflecting the impact of the aforementioned change in short-term debt.

Comparison of Six Months 1995 with Six Months 1994

     Consolidated net sales for the first half of 1995 increased $21.1 million
(23%) due mainly to increased sales volume, particularly in Europe, and the
appreciation of European currencies versus the U.S. dollar.  Income from
operations improved $.4 million as higher sales volume offset lower gross
margins resulting from raw material cost inflation.  The increase in sales
was due to an 11% increase in volume; a 7% improvement associated with
currency translation; and increases from price/mix and business
acquisitions in Europe and South America of 3% and 2%, respectively.

     Operating margins as a percentage of sales declined due to the
aforementioned negative effect of rising raw material costs. Interest
income declined due to lower cash holdings by the company. The decrease in
equity in net income from associated companies was primarily due to
business development investment costs in the company's Fluid Recycling
Services joint venture.  Net income was impacted favorably by approximately
$.06 per share due to currency translation.

                                     
                                   - 8 -

Comparison of Second Quarter 1995 with Second Quarter 1994

     Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 1995 increased $11.7
million (25%) due mainly to increased sales volume, particularly in Europe,
and the appreciation of European currencies versus the U.S. dollar.  Income
from operations improved $.7 million as higher sales volume offset lower
gross margins resulting from raw material cost inflation.  The increase in
sales was due to a 9% increase in volume; a 7% improvement associated with
currency translation; and increases from price/mix and business
acquisitions in Europe and South America of 6% and 3%, respectively.

     The reasons for the changes in operating margins as a percentage of sales
and interest income in the second quarter 1995 versus 1994 are basically
the same as for the six-month period. Other income improved slightly due to
the absence of exchange losses incurred in 1994.  Net income was impacted
favorably by approximately $.03 per share due to currency translation.

     The company's focus in the second half of the year will be on further
efforts to recover raw material cost increases while maintaining sales growth
and controlling discretionary spending.
