                                   THE COMPANY

      The Company designs, manufactures and markets a variety of lightweight,
durable, folding leg tables and related products used in multi-purpose rooms of
educational, recreational, hotel and hospitality, government, office, health
care, religious and other public assembly facilities. The Company has
successfully applied engineering grade plastics and advanced, high technology
manufacturing methods to produce tables that weigh significantly less and are
more durable than competing plywood and particle board tables. In addition, the
Company currently markets five lines of stacking chairs, the MityTuff(TM), the
MityStack(TM), the MityFlex(TM), the MityDeluxe(TM), and the MityHost(TM). The
MityTuff(TM) and MityStack(TM) chairs are distributed by the Company under
original equipment manufacturer (OEM) arrangements with the chair manufacturers.
Portions of the MityFlex(TM) and the MityDeluxe(TM) chairs are manufactured by
the Company and it performs final assembly on these two chair lines. The
MityHost(TM) chair is manufactured by the Company. Unlike its competitors, the
Company primarily markets its products directly to end users through its
in-house staff of sales and customer service personnel. This marketing strategy
has enabled the Company to reduce selling costs while maintaining direct contact
with its customers. The Company markets its products throughout the United
States and in a number of foreign countries.

                                  RISK FACTORS

      In addition to the other information contained in this Prospectus, the
following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating the Company
and its business before acquiring any of the Shares of the Company's Common
Stock being offered hereby. The order in which the following risk factors are
presented is not indicative of the magnitude of the risk disclosed.

Competition

      The markets in which the Company participates are highly competitive. In
the future, the Company expects increased competition from the Company's
existing competitors as well as from other companies that may enter the markets
served by the Company. Only certain elements of the Company's table products are
patented so the unpatented elements could be reverse engineered and duplicated
by competitors who are able to develop the manufacturing equipment and processes
to do so. Many of the Company's competitors have greater name recognition and
greater financial, personnel, manufacturing and marketing resources than the
Company. The Company believes that competition for multi-purpose room furniture
products is generally based on product quality and characteristics, service and
price. The Company's table products are more expensive than table products sold
by the Company's competitors in the same markets. However, the Company believes
that it has been able to compete in such markets and increase its market share
by emphasizing the quality and performance of its table products as compared to
its competitors' table products. Introduction of similar products by low cost
producers would put price and margin pressure on the Company. The Company's
continued success will depend upon, among other things, its ability to continue
to manufacture and market high quality, high performance tables and other
multi-purpose room furniture products at prices competitive in the markets
served by the Company.

Product Line Expansion Strategies; Entry Into New Markets

     The Company's expansion of its current product lines is contingent, among
other things, upon the Company's ability to develop and/or acquire additional
lines of complementary multi-purpose room furniture that can be purchased or
manufactured in a cost efficient manner and sold at competitive prices in the
Company's markets. The Company currently has no commitments, agreements or
understandings with respect to any acquisitions of product lines or of companies
with complementary products or businesses. The Company to date has and will
continue to acquire or develop in-house several lines of chairs. The Company is
not in a position to project whether it will be able to develop or acquire chair
lines that can be sold profitably and meet the Company's quality standards.
Although the Company has successfully penetrated the lightweight, folding leg
table market, and while the Company believes that a number of complementary
product lines can be sold into the Company's existing markets, no assurances are
or can be made that the Company's experience in the folding leg table market
will be repeated in markets for new product lines. Furthermore, the Company
anticipates the development or acquisition of new product lines and the
penetration of new markets will require a substantial commitment of management's
time and of the Company's resources.

      The Company's ability to manufacture other product lines depends on, among
other things, the timely expansion of its current facility or construction of
additional manufacturing facilities on the property currently leased by the
Company. The Company's ability to increase penetration of the domestic table
market depends in part on the Company's ability to expand its in-house sales and
customer service staff and locate and hire additional qualified personnel. No
assurances can be or are made that the Company's expansion strategies will be
successful.

Dependence on Management

      The Company is dependent on the efforts and abilities of certain of its
senior management, particularly Gregory L. Wilson, the Company's Chairman,
President, and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Wilson is employed under a five-year
employment contract expiring in May 1998. The Company maintains a $2,000,000
"key-man" life insurance policy on Mr. Wilson. The loss of any of the Company's
key executives could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its
operations and prospects, although the loss of Mr. Wilson would have a more
significant adverse effect on the Company.

Dependence on Major Customer

      Approximately 5% of the Company's net sales for the six months ended
September 30, 1997 were generated from sales to The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints. Sales to this same customer totaled approximately 8% and 6%
of the Company's net sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996 and 1997,
respectively. The Company currently has a one year bulk table purchase contract
with this customer. This contract is subject to annual renewal upon agreement of
the Company and the customer. The Company has manufactured and sold tables to
this customer since the Company's inception. Loss of this customer could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's profitability.

Proprietary Rights

       The Company has been granted two utility patents relating to the
construction of its table tops. The Company has chosen not to apply for
international patent protection for these two concepts. The Company's success
and future revenue growth will depend, in part, upon its ability to protect its
trade secrets. The Company relies on trade secret law and non-disclosure
agreements to protect its unpatented and proprietary know-how. There can be no
assurance that such measures will provide meaningful protection for the
Company's trade secrets or other proprietary information. Moreover, in the
absence of further patent protection, the Company's business may be adversely
affected by competitors who independently develop substantially equivalent
products and manufacturing processes. The Company will endeavor to keep its
products and processes and the results of its research and development program
proprietary, but it may not be able to prevent others from using some or all of
such information or technology in competition with the Company. The Company
licenses the trade name "Mity-Lite" from a third-party under a five-year license
agreement that is renewable indefinitely at the option of the Company. The
termination of this tradename license and the loss of the use of the "Mity-Lite"
name could have a material adverse impact on the Company and its business.
Because the Company's license for the tradename "Mity-Lite" is non-exclusive, it
is possible that others could obtain a license to use the tradename "Mity-Lite."
Use of the tradename "Mity-Lite" by others in connection with the manufacturing
and sale of tables or other multi-purpose room furniture in the same markets in
which the Company participates could potentially cause confusion among
customers. If the name were used by others in connection with inferior products
or services, it is possible that the Company could suffer the loss of goodwill
associated with its tradename "Mity-Lite." The Company claims common law
trademark rights in the trademarks MityTuff(TM), MityStack(TM), MityFlex(TM),
MityDeluxe(TM) and MityHost(TM). The Company does not own patents rights on any
of these chairs.

Raw Material Prices and Sources

      Both the plastic used in the Company's products and the tubing used in the
legs are manufactured according to Company specifications. The Company intends
to operate without substantial inventory levels of raw materials by depending on
certain key suppliers to provide raw materials on a "just-in-time" basis. The
Company has no raw material supply contracts. The Company believes that
necessary materials are generally available from alternate suppliers. However,
any shortages or significant interruptions in the delivery of raw materials
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's production schedule and
operations. Price increases for raw materials used in the Company's products
would put pressure on the Company's profit margins if the Company were unable to
pass such price increases through to its customers.

Warranty Service Costs

      The Company's tables come with a five year warranty covering materials
and workmanship. The Company's warranty service costs for the fiscal years ended
March 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997 totaled 0.5% of net sales or $60,000, 0.9% of net
sales or $145,000, and 1.4% of net sales or $267,000, respectively. The Company
intends to continue to offer warranties covering materials and workmanship on
its table and chair products and anticipates providing a warranty covering
materials and workmanship for all complementary product lines developed or
acquired by the Company. While the Company has implemented improved quality
control measures that it expects will reduce warranty claims, it is possible
that warranty servicing costs will increase in future periods. Furthermore, the
Company is not in a position to anticipate the additional warranty service costs
that may be incurred as a result of the Company's expansion into complementary
product lines.

Future Variations in Operating Results

      The Company's short-term profitability could be adversely affected by its
decision to develop or acquire complementary product lines, hire additional
sales staff and implement changes in the Company's manufacturing processes.
Various factors, including timing of new product introductions and the cost of
penetrating new markets and changes in product mix, may have an adverse effect
on the Company's results of operations. While the Company believes that the
addition of new product lines will increase the Company's long-term
profitability, there can be no assurance that the Company will continue to
experience profitability at historical rates. No assurances can be or are made
that the Company will not experience temporary fluctuations in operations as new
manufacturing processes are implemented. While the Company did not experience
substantial negative variations in quarterly operating results during the fiscal
years ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, no assurances can be or are made that the
Company will not experience such quarterly variations in the future.

Regulation and Environmental Considerations

      The Company is subject to various local, state and federal laws and
regulations, including, without limitation, regulations promulgated by federal
and state environmental, health and labor agencies. Historically, regulatory
compliance has not had a material adverse effect on the Company's sales or
operations. However, changes in the laws and regulations governing the Company's
business may impose an increased financial burden upon the Company that could
adversely affect the Company's business or operations. Actions by federal, state
and local governments concerning environmental or other matters could result in
regulations that could increase the cost of producing the products manufactured
and sold by the Company. Certain of the Company's operations are subject to
federal, state and local laws and environmental regulations that impose
limitations on the discharge of pollutants into the air. The Company believes
that it is in compliance with applicable air quality laws and regulations. While
the Company has not had to make significant capital expenditures for
environmental compliance, the Company cannot predict with any certainty its
future capital expenditure requirements relating to environmental compliance
because of continually changing compliance standards and technology. The Company
does not have insurance coverage for environmental liabilities and does not
anticipate obtaining such coverage in the future.

Forward-Looking Statements

       All forward-looking statements contained herein are deemed by the Company
to be covered by and to qualify for the safe harbor protection provided by the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "1995 Act"). Investors and
prospective investors in the Company should understand that several factors
govern whether any forward-looking statements contained herein will be or can be
achieved. Any one of those factors could cause actual results to differ
materially from those projected herein. These forward-looking statements include
plans and objectives of management for future operations, including plans and
objectives for products, marketing, customers, product line expansions,
enhancements to its manufacturing process, and potential acquisitions. The
forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations
that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking
statements are based on assumptions, among others, that the Company (a) will be
able to successfully increase its share of the table market, introduce new
product lines to existing customers, market products directly to end users,
enter new markets, and continue enhancing its manufacturing process, (b) will
continue to manufacture and market at current margins high quality, high
performance products at competitive prices, (c) will continue to sell products
to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, (d) can continue to source
acceptable raw materials at current prices and (e) will continue to experience
current levels of warranty service costs. Assumptions relating to the foregoing
involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic,
competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which
are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond
the control of the Company. Although the Company believes that the assumptions
underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any
of those assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there is and can be
no assurance that the results contemplated in any such forward-looking statement
will be realized. Budgeting and other management decisions are subjective in
many respects and thus susceptible to interpretations and periodic revision. The
impact of actual experience and business developments may cause the Company to
alter its marketing, capital expenditure plans or other budgets, which may in
turn affect the Company's result of operations. In light of the significant
uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the
inclusion of any such statement should not be regarded as a representation by
the Company or any other person that the objectives or plans of the Company will
be achieved.

Control by Existing Stockholders

      Approximately 63% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock are
beneficially owned by current directors and executive officers of the Company.
As a result, the current directors and officers of the Company are in a position
to elect at least a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company, to
dissolve, merge or sell the assets of the Company and, generally, to direct the
affairs of the Company.

Unissued Preferred Stock; Possible Anti-Takeover Effect; Control Shares
Acquisition

     The Board of Directors without further action by the holders of Common
Stock, may issue up to 3,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series
and may fix or alter the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions,
including the voting rights, redemption provisions (including sinking fund
provisions), dividend rights, dividend rates, liquidation preferences and
conversion rights, and the description of and number of shares constituting any
wholly-unissued series of Preferred Stock. No shares of Preferred Stock
presently are outstanding, and the Company currently has no plans to issue
shares of Preferred Stock. The issuance of Preferred Stock under certain
circumstances could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of
control or other corporate action, and may dilute the interests of the holders
of Common Stock. The Utah Control Shares Acquisition Act applies to the Company.
This law mandates that whenever a person either directly or indirectly, or alone
or as part of a group, acquires shares that result in ownership of more than
one-fifth, one-third or a majority of the voting power of a Utah corporation,
the shares acquired may not vote unless such acquisition was approved by the
stockholders. The Company has not elected in its Articles of Incorporation or
Bylaws to not have the Utah Control Shares Acquisition Act apply to the Company.
Consequently, the Control Shares Acquisition Act will apply to the Company and
may have the effect of discouraging a change in control of the Company without
the stockholders' consent.


                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

      Each Selling Shareholder will receive all of the net proceeds from the
sale of the Shares owned by such Selling Shareholder and offered hereby. The
Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares.


                              SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

      The following table sets forth certain information with respect to
beneficial ownership of the Company's Common Stock by each of the Selling
Shareholders as of September 1, 1997. Unless otherwise indicated, the Company
believes that each person named below has sole voting and investment power with
respect to all shares of Common Stock shown as beneficially owned by such
person, subject to community property laws where applicable and the information
set forth in the footnotes to the following table.
