                            FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

        MBf USA, INC. GLOVE SUBSIDIARY SIGNS AGREEMENT WITH TOP DENTAL
                 DEALERS THROUGH AMERICAN DENTAL COOPERATIVE



Itasca, IL -- February 8, 1996 -- MBf USA, Inc. (The Nasdaq SmallCap Stock
Market: MBFA) today announced that its subsidiary, American Health Products
Corporation ("AHPC") has entered into an exclusive supply agreement with
American Dental Cooperative ("ADC") whereby ADC's members will be able to
purchase AHPC's latex gloves sold under ADC's Quala private label.

ADC's membership includes 22 top dental dealers whose aggregate market share is
approximately 20% of the total U.S. dental market.  ADC's dental product sales
are generated by a combined force of approximately 500 sales and service
representatives.

AHPC, which markets latex and powder-free latex gloves to hospitals and dental
providers, as well as to food service organizations, has seen its sales to
dental dealers increase dramatically over the past two years.

Edward J. Marteka, President of MBf USA, said, "We are pleased that our AHPC
latex gloves have met ADC's stringent quality and cost criteria.  While there
is no way to accurately anticipate the volume of glove orders AHPC will receive
under this agreement, we are optimistic that our exclusive access to the
members of ADC's dental supply network may result in significant sales in
1996."

MBf USA, Inc. and its subsidiaries market Glovetex(R) brand and OEM medical
examination gloves in the United States and the world-famous Playboy(R) brand
condoms internationally.
