Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
        Condition and Results of Operations

The following information should be read in conjunction with the accompany-
ing unaudited financial statements and the notes thereto included in Item 1
of this quarterly report, and the financial statements and the notes
thereto and management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and
results of operations contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1994.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 1995 Compared With Three Months Ended March
31,1994 

Sales for the three months ended March 31,1995 were $9,628,562 as compared
with $8,397,880 in 1994.  The increase of 14.7% resulted from stronger
sales in all operating divisions.                                  

Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 1995 increased to 79.2%
of sales compared with 76.0% in 1994.  The increase resulted mainly from
higher raw material costs, particularly for paper pulp.

Gross profit decreased to 20.8% of sales in the first quarter of 1995 as
compared to 24.0% in 1994.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 1995
amounted to $1,691,372 or 17.6% of sales compared to $1,556,065 or 18.5% in
1994.  

The pre-tax profit earned in the first quarter of 1995 amounted to $326,480
compared to $546,459 in 1994, a decrease of 40.3%.  

The other income (expense) category decreased in the first quarter of 1995
to $16,859 from $88,273 in 1994. Interest expense decreased to $73,467 in
1995 from $115,911 in 1994 as a result of revolving debt repayments during
1994 (see Liquidity and Capital Resources). Other income decreased from
$131,970 in 1994 to $45,935 in 1995 due to short-term rental income of 
$59,274 in 1994 and loss on sale of equipment of $33,425 in 1995.

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1995 amounted to $197,570   
as compared with $330,197 in 1994, a decrease of 40.2%.  Net income per
share was $.12 in 1995 compared with $.19 in 1994 and reflects a weighted
average of 1,692,476 shares outstanding in the 1995 period and 1,714,073   
shares outstanding in 1994.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

          In December 1993, the Company entered into a loan agreement with
     the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (the "Authority") and a
     bank, whereby the Authority issued Economic Development Bonds with an
     aggregate principal amount of $5,325,000 to be loaned to the Company
     to finance the acquisition of a building and the land on which it is   
     situated,(the "Branchburg Property"), as well as the purchase of       
     machinery and equipment to add a production line.  As of March 31,     
     1995 total proceeds of approximately $4,444,000 had been distributed   
     to the Company in order to purchase the Branchburg Property and        
     machinery and equipment.  The remaining balance is held in escrow, as  
     indicated in the accompanying consolidated balance  sheets, and will   
     be distributed to the Company as new machinery and equipment is        
     purchased. The bonds are secured by a letter of credit provided by a   
     bank which has obtained: (i) a first mortgage and security interest on 
     the building and the land that was acquired; (ii) an assignment of all 
     of the Company's right, title and interest in and to all leases with   
     respect to the building and the land; and (iii) a security interest on 
     machinery and equipment purchased with a portion of the bond proceeds.

          The agreement contains several restrictive financial covenants
     which include: (i) minimum net worth requirement;(ii) maximum leverage
     ratio; (iii) minimum debt service coverage ratio; (iv) minimum current
     ratio; and (v) maximum amount of annual capital expenditures.

          The remaining bond maturity dates range from December 1, 1995 to
     December 1, 2013, and bear interest at fixed rates from 3.6% to 5.7%. 
     The bonds mature at various amounts throughout this period ranging    
     from $140,000 to $940,000.  The bonds maturing December 1, 2007, 2009
     and 2013 are to be redeemed commencing December 1, 2005 and on each
     December 1 thereafter through sinking fund payments ranging from
     $165,000 to $255,000.
          
          During  June 1994, the Company repaid the remaining balance of   
     its revolving debt with First Fidelity Bank, N.A., New Jersey.  The
     outstanding debt of $1,315,417 was secured by essentially all of the
     assets of the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, IFC.

          Funds for the Company's current operations are derived from the
     sale of its products and the ability, when necessary, to borrow on a
     secured line of credit with First Fidelity Bank, N.A., New Jersey. As
     of March 31, 1995, none of the above credit line was utilized.

          As a result, Company believes that it has adequate funds          
     available to conduct and continue to expand its business and that of   
     its subsidiaries. In addition, the Company believes that, if          
     necessary, it will be able to make favorable financial arrangements   
     for any future capital requirements.
