Item 1. Business


OVERVIEW

We design, manufacture and market air filters and related products, and are
focused on providing complete environmental control systems for end uses ranging
from controlling contaminants in residences and commercial office buildings
through specialized manufacturing environments for semiconductors and
pharmaceuticals. Currently, we believe we are one of the largest domestic
manufacturers of air filters, which are utilized by many industries, including
those associated with commercial and residential heating, ventilation and air
conditioning systems (commonly known as "HVAC" systems), semiconductor
manufacturing, ultra-pure materials, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, synthetics,
nuclear power and nuclear materials processing. We also design and manufacture
much of our own production equipment to automate our processes in order to
decrease labor costs associated with our standard products. We also produce
glass-based air filter media for many of our products. Our customers include
Abbott Laboratories, The Home Depot, Inc., Motorola, Inc., Merck & Co., Inc.,
Upjohn Co., Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., Westinghouse Electric Corp., and several
large computer chip manufacturers.

The vast majority of our current revenues come from the sale of after-market
replacement filters, since air filters are typically placed in equipment
designed to last much longer than the filters.


GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS

Flanders Corporation was incorporated on July 2, 1986 in the State of Nevada,
and is currently domiciled in North Carolina.


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND ASSOCIATED RISKS

competitive products and pricing, difficulties in product development,
commercialization and technology. In light of these risks and uncertainties,
there can be no assurance that the events contemplated by the forward-looking
statements contained in this annual report will, in fact, occur.


STRATEGY

We have embarked on a program to increase earnings, and hence shareholder value,
by improving our operating efficiency. We are seeking to grow primarily through
the introduction of qualitatively superior new products to our major
marketplaces, primarily through existing customers.

    INTRODUCE NEW PRODUCTS

    In the last three years, we have focused our development efforts into
    products which address the actual technical requirements of maintaining
    clean air to promote health. Maintaining ultra-clean air in residential


                                       3




    and commercial settings requires continuous and complete replacement of
    "used" air contaminated by contact with hair, skin, carpet, solvents,
    cigarette smoke and other common particle sources with air filtered through
    a combination of pre-filters, High Efficiency Particulate Air (commonly
    called "HEPA") filtration, and odor removal, as well as controlling all air
    inlets. This typically requires upgraded and augmented blowers for central
    or zoned HVAC systems necessary to push air through more effective filters,
    additional filtration placed at building air inlets, and enough additional
    HVAC capacity to generate "over-pressure" so that the majority of air leaks
    push clean air out, rather than allow dirty air inside.

    We have also been able to provide an upgrade path for government buildings,
    large commercial office buildings and other public venues wishing to utilize
    HEPA filtration as part of a program to "harden" buildings against
    bioterrorist attacks.

    Most currently available air filters for commercial, industrial and
    residential use are primarily useful for protecting motors, coils and other
    components from airborne grease condensation and other contaminants which
    reduce the life and energy-efficiency of the HVAC equipment, and have little
    or no effect on reducing airborne contamination which is harmful to humans.
    In fact, standard pleated filters, even those with "high-MIRV" ratings,
    offer no appreciable benefit in terms of better air quality for the
    inhabitants than the cheapest spun-glass filters. These pleated filters are
    accompanied by increased heating and cooling costs caused by the decreased
    amount of air flowing through the system, and decreased efficiency, which
    may be accompanied by more frequent equipment breakdowns as equipment is
    stressed by attempting to push higher volumes of air through "tighter"
    filters. Our new products are designed to offer end-users substantial and
    measurable benefits to health and productivity through substantially cleaner
    air, and are properly engineered to avoid detrimental effects on equipment
    life.

    Comprehensive Indoor Air Cleaners for Residences. During 2000, we completed
    the development of two lines of high-capacity indoor air cleaners intended
    for residential use. In 2001, we continued limited-scale testing of these
    products in residential and industrial settings. Airia Portable Room Air
    Cleaners are stand- alone units which deliver ultra-clean air to a specific
    area of a residence; and Airia Wholehouse Electronic Air Cleaners are
    in-duct units installed as an integral part of a home's forced air heating
    and cooling systems, which deliver ultra-clean air throughout an entire
    house. The stand-alone units, to be offered through retailers and wholesale
    distributors, offer several advantages over competing units including:

    o   High-speed blowers which reduce the problems experienced by
        competing models which recirculate already-clean air through a small
        volume of space, effectively providing clean air only to areas as small
        as two feet square;

    o   A complete selection of high-end air filtration technologies,
        including, depending on the model selected, HEPA filtration to remove
        microscopic particles, pre-filters to remove large particles and extend
        the life of the HEPA cartridges, carbon filtration to remove odors, and
        electrostatic filtration to filter smoke and microscopic particles
        without substantially obstructing air flow.

    The in-duct units may be sold as home improvement projects through
    retailers, HVAC wholesalers and specialty distributors, and will deliver
    ultra-clean conditioned air to an entire residence through existing
    forced-air heating or cooling systems. Both product lines will require users
    to regularly purchase and install replacement filters.

    Complete and Market Security Products for Government Buildings and
    Commercial Office Buildingss. In 2001, we adapted our containment control
    technology to be used in "hardening" government facilities, large commercial
    office buildings and public venues against anthrax attacks and other
    bioterrorist incidents. While these systems do not offer complete protection
    against bioterrorist attacks, any credible multi-layered defense requires
    HEPA filtration and related technologies, adapted to the unique requirements
    of these facilities. Marketing for these products will include adapted sales
    literature, technical seminars and electronic multimedia presentations.

    Offer Indoor Air Quality Diagnosis and Remediation Services. During 1999, as
    part of the acquisition of the Tidewater group of companies, we acquired a
    small engineering firm specializing in monitoring air quality using
    automated real-time data collection techniques over a period of months,
    diagnosing any potential indoor air quality problems and suggesting
    remediation programs. We believe we will be able to


                                       4






    leverage this expertise into value-added sales to our existing industrial
    and commercial customers, and the filter sales and service companies which
    supply them, thus increasing our revenues by adding value-added consulting
    and monitoring services.

    IMPROVE OPERATING EFFICIENCY

    Centralize Overhead Functions. During 2001, we restructured our sales force
    into four market-centered groups, each focusing on a different type of
    customer, providing a consistent national sales team, eliminating
    overlapping territories and duplication of literature while centralizing
    travel coordination and adding focus to our sales efforts. We are continuing
    to centralize and eliminate duplication of efforts between subsidiaries in
    the following areas: purchasing, production planning, shipping coordination,
    accounting and personnel management.

    Rationalize West Coast Operations. We expect to complete the rationalization
    of our West Coast operations, including the movement of the bulk of our
    manufacturing capacity from plants in Nevada and California into Tijuana,
    Mexico and Utah, by the end of September 2002.

    Strategic Acquisitions. We continue to search for opportunities to acquire
    new businesses, although our criteria for evaluating these businesses has
    moved toward acquiring regional distributors and resellers, and away from
    acquiring competing air filter manufacturers. We are looking for potential
    acquisitions with the following characteristics: (i) dominant positions in
    local or regional markets, (ii) a stable customer base distinct from our
    existing customers, and (iii) a history of consistent and healthy earnings.
    Acquiring resellers and distributors with these characteristics allows us to
    increase operating margins by removing at least one layer of "middlemen,"
    and their compounding mark-ups and commissions from the sales and
    distribution process, allowing us to charge higher prices while maintaining
    competitive pricing with end users. At the present time, we do not have any
    binding agreements with respect to future acquisitions.

    INCREASE MARKET SHARE

    Use Facilities Located Throughout the United States to Increase Market
    Share. Through acquisition and the establishment of new plants, we have
    placed facilities within one day's over-the-road shipping of most major
    population centers in the United States. We believe this ability to
    regionalize production and distribution has improved our business in several
    ways: (i) Decrease cost of sales by reducing the average distance between
    our plants and our customers, and hence decrease the cost of outbound
    freight; (ii) increase responsiveness by decreasing the average time
    required to ship products to customers; and (iii) increase our share of
    national accounts' total business by having manufacturing facilities in
    closer proximity to customers' regional distribution centers. The ability to
    service all major population centers with regional manufacturing centers is
    critical for our business, allowing us to compete on price against less
    broadly based competitors without sacrificing margins, as well as the
    ability to respond more rapidly than most of our competition.

    Continued Emphasis on Quality and Performance. A continued emphasis on
    product quality and on-time shipments has allowed us to capture market share
    serving several industries in recent years.

    Utilize High Efficency Production and Logistics Systems to Dominate Niche
    Markets. During the past several years we have invested heavily in upgrading
    our production facilities, scheduling capacity, and logistics management
    capabilities. We intend to continue using these advantages to capture market
    share in niche markets with specialized products tailored to their exact
    requirements. Many end users with specialized air filtration needs are
    currently "making do" with standard products. It has been our experience
    that minor changes made to our standard products to meet these requirements
    may offer significant operational savings to these end users, although the
    actual filters cost more.


AIR FILTER MARKET BACKGROUND

The air filtration market is mature, with market growth driven by a gradual
trend toward higher efficiency filters for residential, commercial and
industrial applications.


                                       5




According to the McIlvaine Company, a leading industry analyst, concerns about
anthrax and other microbes will accelerate this trend over the next five years
as commercial buildings in large U.S. cities upgrade their ventilation systems
to install more efficient filters. They forecast that the world market for air
filters will grow to approximately $5 billion in 2005, up from $3.5 billion in
2000, with the United States being the largest market for air filters. Other
growth drivers include an increasing propensity towards using higher-performance
filters in commercial and residential spaces instead of current low-efficiency
models, and the use of HEPA filters in new applications.

Management believes the forces driving the air filtration market are evolving,
beginning in the past decade and continuing for the next several years, from
preserving machinery and equipment to maintaining indoor air quality. In
addition, we expect many high-growth technology industries to increase their
reliance on air filters to remove microscopic and gaseous contaminants from
sensitive manufacturing processes associated with semiconductor manufacturing,
pharmaceutical production, ultra-pure materials manufacturing and biotechnology.
Companies are devoting resources to air filtration products to enhance process
efficiency and employee productivity.

Air filters are used in many different applications, including the following:

    o   Commercial and Residential HVAC Systems. Replacement filters are an
        essential requirement for the efficient operation of commercial and
        residential HVAC systems.

    o   Residential air cleaners.  Stand-alone air cleaners which produce
        ultra-clean air in a defined area are also gaining in popularity among
        allergy sufferers and asthmatics, although follow-up sales of
        replacement filtration cartridges have been limited.

    o   General Industrial. Air filters are used in standard industrial
        settings to provide cleaner work environments; for example, auto makers
        use air filtration systems to remove "oil mist" contaminants from the
        air in their plants, and industrial paint booth users utilize air
        filtration to remove paint particles from the air.

    o   Semiconductors. HEPA and carbon filters are necessary to meet the
        increasingly stringent manufacturing environment requirements of
        semiconductor manufacturers, where microscopic airborne contaminants can
        ruin microchips during production, having a large impact on
        manufacturing yield and profitability. Carbon filters are also being
        increasingly used to filter gaseous contaminants from semiconductor
        manufacturing areas.

    o   Pharmaceuticals. Pharmaceutical companies are increasingly using
        cleanrooms to prevent cross- contamination between different products
        and different lots of the same product being manufactured at the same
        facility. The increasing use of cultured microbes for drug production is
        also expected to increase demand for high-end containment environments.

    o   Biotechnology. Containment systems for the manipulation of viruses and
        bacteria using genetic engineering techniques are critical to the
        biotechnology industry.

    o   Nuclear Power and Materials Processing. Filtration systems are
        necessary to radioactive containment procedures for all nuclear
        facilities.


RECENT TRENDS

Recent trends in the air filter industry, as well as changes in laws and
governmental regulations during the past five years, all encourage an increased
awareness of the benefits of the use of air filtration products. Some of these
trends and changes are:

    Security Initiatives to Counter Terrorist Threats. According to the
    McIlvaine Company, initiatives to "harden" buildings against bioterrorist
    attacks and other security initiatives will result in many governmental and
    commercial facilities upgrading their HVAC systems to incorporate HEPA
    filters and other types of upgraded air control systems.


                                       6




    Weak Economy and Semiconductor Downturn. Sales of air filtration products
    for semiconductor facilities, historically a major market, are expected to
    be slow again during 2002, with most analysts pushing recovery for this
    sector out to at least 2003. The current weak economy is also expected to
    have a dampening effect on sales of all of our products.

    Indoor Air Quality and Health. We believe there is an increase in public
    concern regarding the effects of Indoor Air Quality on employee productivity
    and health, as well as an increase in interest in standards for detecting
    and solving IAQ problems. For example, the American Society of Heating
    Refrigeration and Air- Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) has recently
    established certain minimum standards for ventilation and indoor air quality
    for commercial and industrial settings. The World Health Organization has
    recently been studying the effects of air quality on human health, including
    widely publicized epidemiological studies indicating that airborne
    contaminants kill more people than automobile accidents.

    Lack of Legitimate Competing Products. We believe there is an increase in
    public and regulatory frustration with spurious and misleading claims made
    by other manufacturers in the air filtration industry. This trend is
    evidenced by recent rulings by the Federal Trade Commission disallowing
    claims of "cleaning the air in an entire room" made by several manufacturers
    of "area HEPA filtration systems" as well as medical benefits claimed by
    manufacturers of "passive electrostatic" washable synthetic filters.

    Hazardous Working Environments. Several studies recognize that air quality
    in working facilities has an impact upon human health. OSHA regulations, in
    particular, have made IAQ a consideration in a wide variety of industries,
    ranging from those industries using spray-paint booths to those using
    automobile assembly lines.

    Sick Building Syndrome. Sick Building Syndrome, which is characterized by
    lethargy, frequent headaches, eye irritation and fatigue, has recently been
    shown to be a valid concern, and is a major design consideration in new and
    renovated commercial and industrial buildings. The identification of "sick"
    buildings, and solutions for mitigation, involve complex issues which need
    to be examined on a case-by-case basis by qualified engineers; solutions
    typically include improving the HVAC and filtration systems of the "sick"
    buildings.

    Hazardous Emission Regulation and Resultant Liability. Electrical utilities
    became subject to emissions regulations under Title 4 of the Clean Air Act.
    In addition, OSHA's Hazardous Communication Standard, the Toxic Release
    Inventory and community "right to know" regulations regarding liability for
    claims made by employees or neighboring communities have made many
    industries, in particular the chemical and semiconductor industries, more
    aware of clean air regulations. As a result, these industries have taken
    voluntary steps, including the utilization of air filtration systems, to
    bring emissions of potentially hazardous substances into line with
    regulatory standards.


MARKETING

Much of our marketing effort consists of personal visits to customers and
distributors through an extensive tiered network of contract salespeople.
Periodic visits are enhanced by mass mailings announcing new products,
participation in trade shows for exposure and lead generation, technical
articles and advertisements in trade periodicals, and a newly redesigned catalog
containing all Flanders products. During 2000, we restructured and unified all
of our product offerings, so that each subsidiary no longer generates its own
marketing literature. During 2001, we continued this idea by forming groups
focused on: foremarket sales, generally consisting of sales of products for new
or upgraded facilities; retail sales, generally consisting of sales through
retailers for use in residences and small businesses; air filter sales and
service, generally consisting of sales to air filter service companies, who
maintain industrial and commercial HVAC systems; and after-market sales,
generally consisting of sales to wholesalers and distributors for use by
industrial end users.

Besides developing new sales leads and contacts, we are also focused on
increasing the effectiveness of our existing distributors and contract salesmen,
by allowing them to offer our products as a complete "single-source" for air
filtration products.


                                       7




PRODUCTS

We design, manufacture and market a broad range of air filters and related
products, including:

    o   Residential heating and air conditioning filters, typically sold
        through retailers under the Flanders~Precisionaire brand name.

    o   Residential air cleaners, developed in 2000, which offer a range of
        different filtration types ranging from single-room HEPA units which
        clean the air in a room to near-cleanroom levels to in-duct
        electrostatic precipitators which remove large quantities of airborne
        contaminants from entire residences without negatively impacting the
        efficiency of HVAC systems.

    o   Industrial specialty filters which fall under specifications which are
        categorized by efficiency ratings established by ASHRAE, used in a wide
        variety of industries, including paint facilities, automobile factories,
        chemical treatment plants, mushroom farms, coal mines, oil refineries
        and power plants.

    o   Commercial and industrial filters for use in office and general
        manufacturing environments, typically sold through wholesalers and
        distributors.

    o   High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters (at least 99.97%
        efficient) in various grades, for use in semiconductor facilities,
        nuclear containment vessels, disease containment facilities, and other
        critical applications.

    o   Absolute Isolation Barriers which are customized stand-alone units,
        typically manufactured of stainless steel, used in various industries
        which require absolute control over contaminants, atmospheric
        composition and containment.

    o   Carbon filters, both in bonded panels and activated charcoal beds,
        used to remove gaseous contaminants, odors and toxic chemical vapors in
        various commercial and industrial applications.

    o   Specialized air filter housings, for use in multi-stage filtration
        applications.

    o   Other related products, including ductwork and equipment cleaning
        chemicals, custom air handlers and specialized filter housings.


MANUFACTURING

We manufacture air filters, housings, Absolute Isolation Barriers and related
equipment at several facilities in the United States and Mexico, which range in
size from 18,000 square feet to approximately 400,000 square feet. The major
plants are:

    o   Twelve separate manufacturing and warehousing facilities located in
        Washington, North Carolina; Bartow, Florida; Terrell, Texas; Louisville,
        Kentucky; Salt Lake City, Utah; Henderson, Nevada; Momence, Illinois;
        Smithfield, North Carolina; San Diego, California; Tijuana, Mexico;
        Stafford, Texas; and Auburn, Pennsylvania, produce a broad range of
        HEPA, commercial, residential and industrial filters.

    o   One facility in Bath, North Carolina, manufactures HEGA filters,
        high-end containment environments, housings, custom filter assemblies
        and other custom filtration products and systems which require extensive
        custom design, production and lot tracking, including products used in
        the production and containment of potentially dangerous biologically
        engineered microorganisms.

In addition, we design and manufacture much of our automated production
equipment, as well as glass-based media used in many of our products.

Our manufacturing operations are subject to periodic inspection by regulatory
authorities. Because of the nature of some of our products, these agencies
include, in some cases, the Department of Energy, and other agencies responsible
for overseeing sensitive technologies. One of the considerations in deciding
which types of products each facility will manufacture is the segregation of
highly-regulated products to a minimal number of facilities to reduce the
overhead associated with regulatory monitoring and compliance.


                                       8




Each of our manufacturing facilities utilizes testing and design strategies
appropriate to the products manufactured. These range from standard statistical
process quality controls for residential replacement filters to individual
testing and certification with patented proprietary particle scanning
technologies for each laminar-grade HEPA filter. We believe that our ability to
comprehensively test and certify HEPA filters is a competitive advantage.

SOURCE AND AVAILABILITY OF RAW MATERIALS

Our principal raw materials are cardboard, fiberglass fibers, recyclable
waste-glass, extruded glass, sheet metal, extruded aluminum, adhesives, resins
and wood. All of these raw materials are readily available in sufficient
quantities from many suppliers.

COMPETITION

The air-filtration market is fragmented and highly competitive. There are many
companies which compete in our market areas. We believe that the principal
competitive factors in the air filtration business include product performance,
name recognition, price, product knowledge, reputation, customized design,
timely delivery and product maintenance. We believe that we compete favorably in
all of these categories. Competitors include successful companies with
resources, assets, financial strength and market share which may be greater than
ours. Major competitors include American Air Filter International, Farr Company,
HEPA Corporation, Purolator Products Air Filtration Company, Donaldson Company,
Inc. and Clark Corporation.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND LICENSES

We currently hold 19 patents relating to filtration technology, including
patents relating to HEPA filters and fabrication methods, filter leak testing
methods, laminar flow cleanrooms, components of isolation barriers, and the
baking soda impregnation method used in the manufacture of Arm & Hammer Pleated
Filters.

We have obtained and own the following federal trademark registrations:
PRECISIONAIRE?, EZ FLOW?, SMILIE?, AIRVELOPE?, CHANNEL-CEIL?, CHANNEL-HOOD?,
PUREFORM?, ECONO-CELL?, GAS- PAK?, PUREFRAME?, DIMPLE PLEAT?, BLU-JEL?, VLSI?,
CHANNEL-SEAL-ADAPTER?, SUPERFLOW?, FLANDERS?, CHANNEL-WALL?, SUPERSEAL?,
AIRPURE? and PURESEAL?. The Company also has applied for federal trademark
protection for the following marks: FLANDERS ABSOLUTE ISOLATIONTM,
FLANDERS/CSCTM, TECH-SORBTM and FUTUREFLOTM. Although management believes that
the patents and trademarks associated with our various product lines and
subsidiaries are valuable, we do not consider any of them to be essential to our
business.

We currently license some of our products to foreign specialty HVAC and ASHRAE
filter manufacturers who produce products under their own name and with their
own identifying labels.

CUSTOMERS

We are not dependent upon any single customer. One customer, Wal-Mart Stores,
Inc., accounted for 8%, 9%, and 10% of net sales during 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Home Depot, Inc., accounted for 16%, 13% and 12% of net sales
during 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. No other single customer accounted for
10% or more of net sales during the past three years. Other significant
customers include Abbott Laboratories, Motorola, Inc., Intel Corporation, Merck
& Co., Inc., Upjohn Co., Westinghouse Electric Corp., and several U.S.
government agencies.

BACKLOG

We had approximately $15.5 million of firm backlog on December 31, 2001,
compared to $18.4 million on December 31, 2000. Firm backlog includes orders
received and not begun and the unfinished and unbilled portion of special
orders. Orders are typically not cancelable without penalty, except for certain
stable filter supply contracts to nuclear facilities operated by the United
States government. Backlog varies from week to week, based on the timing and mix
of orders received. The difference in backlog between December 31, 2001 and 2000
is not considered to be meaningful, and is within the normal range of
week-to-week variation. All backlog at December 31, 2001, is expected to be
shipped by the end of the second quarter of 2002.

EMPLOYEES

The Company employed 1,840 full-time employees on December 31, 2001; 1,512 in
manufacturing, 32 in development and technical staff, 61 in sales and marketing,
and the remaining 235 in support staff and administration. The Company believes
that its relationship with its employees is satisfactory. Manufacturers'
representatives are not employees of the Company.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Our research and development is focused in the following areas:

    Alternative filtration media types, including evaluation of new synthetic
    media products, which might either increase efficiency or decrease media
    costs; the Company's Arm & Hammer Pleated Filters are an application of this
    type of research.

    Improved media production techniques, particularly at Precisionaire's spun
    fiberglass production facility in Salt Lake City, Utah, and FFI's HEPA paper
    mill in Washington, North Carolina; during the past ten years, the Company
    has increased the efficiency of its filters through advances in media
    formulation and production techniques from 99.97% to 99.999997%.

    Application development, where new methods and products are developed from
    existing technologies; the Company's in-house air cleaners are an
    application of this type of research.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

Our operations are subject to certain federal, state and local requirements
relating to environmental, waste management, health and safety regulations. We
attempt to operate our business in compliance with all applicable government,
environmental, waste management, health and safety regulations and we believe
that our products meet standards from applicable government agencies. There can
be no assurance that future regulations will not require us to modify our
products to meet revised safety or other requirements.

SEASONALITY

Historically, our business has been seasonal, with a substantial percentage of
sales occurring during the second and third quarters of each year. In addition,
demand for our general commercial and industrial products appears to be highly
influenced by the weather, with higher sales generally associated with extremes
of either hot or cold weather, and lower sales generally associated with
temperate weather. Because of these seasonal and weather-related demand
fluctuations, quarter-to-quarter performance may not be a good predictor of
future results.

EXPORT SALES

We sell products for and to end users outside of the United States through
domestic specialty cleanroom contractors. These sales are counted as domestic
sales. We also sell products through foreign distributors, primarily in Europe,
and through Flanders International, Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary located in
Singapore which sells to customers in the Far East. Sales through foreign
distributors and Flanders International amounted to less than 5% of net sales
for each of the last three fiscal years. Assets held outside the United States
are negligible.

Item 2. Properties

The following table lists our principal facilities. Management believes that
these properties are adequate for its current operational needs, but we may at
some point relocate, reorganize or consolidate various facilities for reasons of
operating efficiencies, or may open new plants to take advantage of perceived
new economic opportunities.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

We have sued Conap (U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of North
Carolina, Case No. 4-99-CV-93-H(3)), a supplier of urethane sealant used in some
of our HEPA filtration products, for supplying a sealant which did not meet
specifications for use in semiconductor facilities. The amount and probability
of any settlement or award is unknown at this time.

We are involved in a dispute with a benefit plan administrator (U.S. District
Court, Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division, Case No. CIV 1971-T-17-F,
Liberty Mutual v. Flanders Corporation et al). Liberty Mutual was the Workers'
Compensation administrator and stop-loss insurer for some of the Company's
subsidiaries. They have alleged that they are entitled to be reimbursed for
certain costs incurred in administering various insurance claims. We have
counter-sued, claiming that Liberty Mutual was negligent in its duties as
administrator of our claims, that it made payments on our behalf which were
specifically disallowed, that they refused to follow instructions given to them
by us, that they failed to meet minimal acceptable standards for administering
claims, and that such failures constituted a material dereliction of their
responsibilities as administrator, as well as other claims related to
malfeasance and negligence. In addition, we claimed Liberty Mutual charged
certain administrative fees over and above the actual costs incurred. The amount
and probability of any settlement or award related to this litigation is unknown
at this time. Among the issues being considered is the matter of currently
unresolved workers' compensation claims whose estimate of potential loss may
change as a result of this litigation. While management believes it has reserved
an adequate amount for settlement of these claims, there is no guarantee that
the Company's actual liability will not exceed its current estimate.
Accordingly, these matters, if resolved in a manner different from management's
estimate, could have a material effect on the operating results or cash flows in
the future.

Additionally, from time to time, we are a party to various legal proceedings
incidental to our business. None of these proceedings are material to our
business, operations or financial condition.

In the opinion of the Company, although the outcome of any legal proceeding
cannot be predicted with certainty, the ultimate liability of the Company in
connection with currently known legal proceedings will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position, but could be material to the
results of operations in any one future accounting period.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

We held our annual meeting of shareholders on December 28, 2001. During the
meeting, holders of 18,187,843 shares, representing approximately 70% of
26,033,153 shares outstanding on the record date, attended either in person or
by proxy. Holders of 18,170,895 shares (approximately 99.9% of shares present)
voted to elect as members of the Board of Directors each of Robert R. Amerson,
Steven K. Clark, J. Russell Fleming and Linwood Allen Hahn; holders of 10,244
shares chose to vote against the election of each of the above-named directors;
holders of 6,704 shares chose to abstain from voting. As a result, Messrs.
Amerson, Clark, Fleming and Hahn were elected for an additional one-year term as
directors.

On April 12, 2002, Flanders' common stock closed at $1.79. As of April 12, 2002,
there were approximately 350 holders of record of the Company's common stock.
The Company estimates there are approximately 2,500 beneficial owners of the
Company's common stock.

DIVIDENDS

We have not declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. Currently, we
intend to retain any future earnings to finance the growth and development of
the business, therefore we do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the
foreseeable future. In the future, the Board of Directors may decide to change
this policy, based upon its evaluation of our earnings, financial position,
capital requirements and any factors the Board of Directors may consider to be
relevant. Under the terms of our revolving credit line we cannot pay dividends
without the prior written consent of the bank. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and
Capital Resources" and "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note H."

SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

The Company did not sell any unregistered common shares or other unregistered
securities during 2001, 2000 or 1999.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with "Item 6 - Selected
Financial Data" and our "Consolidated Financial Statements," all included
elsewhere herein. The information set forth in this "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" includes
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Many factors,
including but not limited to those discussed below under "Factors That May
Affect Future Results" could cause actual results to differ materially from
those contained in these forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW

Flanders is a full-range air filtration product company engaged in designing,
manufacturing and marketing high performance air filtration products and certain
related products and services. Our focus has evolved from expansion through
acquisition to increasing the quality and efficiency of our high-volume
replacement filtration products, and using these benefits to compete more
effectively in the marketplace. We also design and manufacture much of our own
production equipment as well as glass-based media for many of our air filtration
products.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The following discussion and analysis is based upon our consolidated financial
statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of our
financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses, and assets and liabilities
during the periods reported. Estimates are used when accounting for certain
items such as revenues, allowances for returns, early payment discounts,
customer discounts, doubtful accounts, employee compensation programs,
depreciation and amortization periods, taxes, inventory values, insurance
programs, and valuations of investments, goodwill, other intangible assets and
long-lived assets. We base our estimates on historical experience, where
applicable, and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the
circumstances. Actual results may differ from our estimates under different
assumptions or conditions.

We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect our more
significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our consolidated
financial statements. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated
losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments.
We base our estimates on the aging of our accounts receivable balances and our
historical write-off experience, net of recoveries. If the financial condition
of our customers were to deteriorate, additional allowances may be required. We
value our inventories at the lower of cost or market. We write down inventory
balances for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the
difference between the cost of the inventory and the estimated market value
based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual
market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management,
additional inventory write-downs may be required. Our insurance costs are
developed by management evaluation of the likelihood and probable amount of
potential claims based on historical experience and evaluation of each claim.
Changes in the key assumptions may occur in the future, which would result in
changes to related insurance costs. We also have recorded goodwill and
intangible assets related to previous acquisitions. We assess impairments
associated with these assets when we determine that the undiscounted expected
future cash flows decline below their carrying value. Poor operating performance
of the business activities related to goodwill, other intangible assets, or
long-lived assets could result in future cash flows of these assets declining
below carrying values.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    2001 Compared to 2000

    The following table summarizes the Company's results of operations as a
    percentage of net sales for 2001 and 2000 (Dollar amounts in thousands).



                                                       2001                2000
                                                ------------------  ------------------
                                                                    
    Net sales                                   $ 189,077   100.0%  $ 194,072   100.0%
    Gross profit                                   39,783    21.0      36,917    19.0
    Operating expenses                             36,311    19.2      40,733    21.0
    Operating income (loss) from
      continuing operations                         3,471     1.8      (3,816)   (2.0)
    Earnings (loss) from continuing
      operations before income taxes                1,489     0.8      (6,940)   (3.6)
    Provision (benefit) for income taxes              930     0.5      (2,443)   (1.3)
    Earnings (loss) from continuing operations        559     0.3      (4,497)   (2.3)
    Loss from discontinued operations                (175)   (0.1)     (2,702)   (1.4)
    Net earnings (loss)                          $    384     0.2    $ (7,199)   (3.7)



    Net Sales: Net sales for 2001 decreased by $4,995,000 or 2.6%, to
    $189,077,000, from $194,072,000 for 2000. The decrease in net sales was due
    to a large and unexpected drop-off in orders in the fourth quarter of 2001,
    which resulted in revenues approximately $7.3 million lower than the fourth
    quarter of 2000, primarily in our replacement business for standard
    industrial and residential replacement filters, caused by a deferral of
    standard HVAC system maintenance by a large number of end users. The
    shortfall does not appear to be caused by a loss of market share or loss of
    any significant number of customers.

    Gross Profit. Gross profit for 2001 increased $2,866,000, or 7.8%, to
    $39,783,000, which made up 21.0% of net sales, from $36,917,000 for 2000,
    which made up 19.0% of net sales. Excluding approximately $7.9 million of
    one-time charges booked to cost of sales in 2000, consisting primarily of
    decreases in inventory valuations, increases in the allowance for doubtful
    accounts, and other charges for write-offs of previously capitalized costs
    and other miscellaneous items, gross profit for 2001 decreased by
    $5,034,000, approximately $4.0 million of which was due to the unexpected
    revenue shortfall in the fourth quarter of 2001. The remainder of the
    decrease in gross profit was principally attributable to:

      o Expanded facilities in Tijuana, which were brought partially online
        during the first half of the year, experienced additional expenses
        associated with completing expansions, reorganizing production
        schedules, hiring and training additional laborers, and other
        inefficiencies typical of expanded manufacturing operations, including
        duplicate staffing at our San Diego and Nevada facilities.

      o Increased price competition for several major retail accounts.

      o Increased inbound freight costs for raw materials associated with fuel
        price increases and fuel surcharges.

    Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for 2001 decreased $4,422,000, or
    10.9%, to $36,311,000, from $40,733,000 in 2000. The decrease in operating
    expenses in 2001 was primarily attributable to reductions in administrative
    headcount of approximately 17%, and a 10% salary reduction instituted in the
    third quarter of 2001.

    Nonoperating income (expense) from continuing operations: Nonoperating
    expenses from continuing operations decreased approximately $1,871,000, to a
    net expense of approximately $1,253,000 for 2001, compared to net expense of
    3,124,000 in 2000. Excluding a one-time charge in 2000 for the settlement of
    outstanding litigation with Intel of $1,500,000, nonoperating income
    (expense) from continuing operations decreased approximately $371,000.


                                       16




    Provision for Taxes: Our effective state and federal tax rate, adjusted for
    the effect of nondeductible expenses consisting primarily of amortization of
    goodwill of approximately $900,000 per year, was approximately 39% and 40%
    for 2001 and 2000, respectively.

    Earnings (loss) from Continuing Operations: Earnings (loss) from continuing
    operations for 2001 increased $5,077,000, to income of $580,000, or $0.02
    per share, from a loss of $4,497,000, or ($0.18) per share for 2000. The
    increase in earnings is primarily attributable to the benefits of
    administrative savings and reductions in salary expenses in 2001.

    2000 Compared to 1999

    The following table summarizes the Company's results of operations as a
    percentage of net sales for 2000 and 1999 (dollar amounts in thousands).



                                                        2000                1999
                                                ------------------  ------------------
                                                                    
    Net sales                                   $ 194,072   100.0%  $ 171,392   100.0%
    Gross profit                                   36,917    19.0      43,975    25.7
    Operating expenses                             40,733    21.0      33,802    19.7
    Operating income (loss) from
      continuing operations                        (3,816)   (2.0)     10,172     5.9
    Earnings (loss) from continuing
      operations before income taxes               (6,940)   (3.6)     10,174     5.9
    Provision (benefit) for income taxes           (2,443)   (1.3)      4,671     2.7
    Earnings (loss) from continuing
      operations                                   (4,497)   (2.3)      5,503     3.2
    Loss from discontinued operations              (2,702)   (1.4)     (2,686)   (1.6)
    Net earnings (loss)                         $  (7,199)   (3.7)  $   2,817     1.6


    Net Sales: Net sales for 2000 increased by $22,680,000 or 13.2%, to
    $194,072,000, from $171,392,000 for 1999. The increase in net sales was due
    to the Company's success in capturing additional market share, which was
    achieved mainly through (i) attracting work from new customers through
    offering superior pricing and service programs; (ii) securing additional
    business from existing customers in expanded geographical regions; and (iii)
    the development and placement of new lines of filtration products with new
    customers for end users in new industries.

    Other Charges and Special Items: During the last half of 2000, we formalized
    our plan to consolidate our west coast operations, and recorded other
    charges and special items totaling approximately $10,600,000 in connection
    with settling our outstanding litigation with Intel, consolidating
    operations, combining organizations, plant start-up expenses and for other
    nonrecurring items arising during the period. These expenses were booked as
    approximately $7,900,000 in cost of goods sold, $1,200,000 in operating
    expenses and $1,500,000 in other expenses. Amounts booked for settlement of
    the Intel litigation included repurchasing inventory at a loss and cash
    payments - see "Legal Proceedings." Other one-time charges included costs
    for inventory adjustments, write-offs, plant start-up expenses, duplicate
    assets and other miscellaneous items.

    Gross Profit. Gross profit for 2000 decreased $7,058,000, or 16.1%, to
    $36,917,000, which made up 19.0% of net sales, from $43,975,000 for 1999,
    which made up 25.7% of net sales. Excluding the one-time charges noted
    above, gross profit for 2000 would have increased by $842,000, or 1.9%, to
    $44,817,000, which represented 23.1% of net sales, compared to $43,975,000,
    which represented 25.7% of net sales for 1999. The decrease in gross profit
    percentage, excluding one-time charges for comparability between periods,
    was principally attributable to:

      o Delays in implementing our price increases associated with delays in
        the production of marketing materials and associated reorganized and
        consolidated marketing efforts. Anticipated benefits from this
        reorganization, the first stage of which was completed in mid-September,
        were not completed in time to have a material beneficial impact on our
        2000 results.


                                       17




      o An increase in the percentage of our labor force employed through
        temporary services compared to 1999, caused by the continued tightness
        in the labor pool of qualified seasonal workers, which increased average
        labor costs per hour during the period and resulted in a net increase in
        comparable expenses of approximately $700,000.

      o Price concessions made to secure new contracts with distributors for
        mid-range industrial end- users led to a decrease in average selling
        price to industrial distributors of approximately 2%.

      o Expanded facilities in Salt Lake City, Utah and Tijuana, Mexico, which
        were brought partially online during 2000, experienced additional
        expenses associated with completing expansions, reorganizing production
        schedules, hiring and training additional laborers, and other
        inefficiencies typical of reorganized and expanded manufacturing
        operations.

      o Fuel surcharges for inbound shipments of raw materials, which were
        attributable to a general increase in domestic diesel fuel costs caused
        by escalating political instability in the Middle East as well as OPEC
        supply constraints.

      o During 1999 and 2000, we received national contracts from major
        retailers which required our first exposure to new "point-of-sale"
        distribution requirements. The contracts had pricing predicated upon
        certain erroneous assumptions regarding the costs of these distribution
        methods, and these problems were exacerbated by increases in fuel and
        related shipping expenses.

      o Labor overruns and redundant personnel.

    Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for 2000 increased $6,931,000, or
    20.5%, to $40,733,000, compared to $33,802,000 in 1999. Excluding one-time
    charges, operating expenses for 2000 would have increased $5,731,000, or
    17.0%, to $39,533,000, which represented 20.4% of net sales, from
    $33,802,000, which represented 19.7% of net sales in 1999.

    The increase in operating expenses, excluding one-time charges, was
    principally attributable to:

      o Fuel surcharges on outbound shipments of finished goods to customers
        and other shipping cost increases primarily attributable to a sharp
        increase in diesel fuel costs amounted to approximately $2,800,000.

      o A reevaluation of accounts receivable reserves due to economic downturn
        and an increase in the number of potentially bad receivables caused bad
        debt expense in 2000 to be approximately $1,450,000 higher in 2000 than
        in 1999, an increase of approximately 3800%.

      o Other increases in operating expenses were held to 4.4%, with increases
        in sales commissions, outbound freight and other expenses directly
        related to sales volume balanced by reductions in redundant
        administrative staff, consolidation of positions between subsidiaries
        and other savings from our ongoing consolidation and cost reduction
        program.

    Nonoperating income (expense) from continuing operations: Net nonoperating
    income (expense) from continuing operations decreased approximately
    $3,125,000, to an expense of approximately $3,124,000 for 2000, from income
    of $1,000 in 1999. Excluding the one-time charge for the settlement of our
    outstanding litigation with Intel of $1,500,000, nonoperating income
    (expense) from continuing operations decreased approximately $1,625,000,
    which consisted primarily of an increase in interest expense of $1,537,000
    caused by higher average balances on the Company's credit facilities and a
    higher average interest rate on the Company's lines of credit, which have
    variable rates linked to standard interest rate indices.

    Discontinued Operations: In December 1999, the Company adopted a formal plan
    to close Airseal West, a wholly owned subsidiary, and sell its various
    assets and product lines to unrelated third parties. The closure was
    completed in the first quarter of 2001, although various assets, consisting
    primarily of non- filtration inventories, manufacturing equipment, designs
    and intellectual properties, were not sold until later in the year. The
    estimated net loss of the discontinued operations of approximately
    $2,702,000 and $2,686,000 in 2000 and 1999, respectively, consists of net
    losses from discontinued operations of $1,820,000 and $1,793,000,
    respectively, approximately $893,000 of estimated losses on the disposal of
    assets which were accrued in 1999, and an additional $883,000 of estimated
    losses on the disposal of assets accrued in 2000.


                                       18




    Provision for Taxes: Our blended state and federal tax rate, excluding the
    effect of nondeductible expenses consisting primarily of amortization of
    goodwill of approximately $900,000 per year and approximately $600,000 of
    one-time adjustments in 1999, was approximately 40.0% for both 2000 and
    1999.

    Earnings (loss) from Continuing Operations: Earnings (loss) from continuing
    operations for 2000 decreased $10,000,000, or 182%, to a loss of $4,497,000,
    or ($0.18) per share, from $5,503,000, or $0.22 per share basic ($0.21
    diluted) for 1999. The decrease in earnings is primarily attributable to
    one-time charges and decreases in gross profit percentage discussed above.


EFFECTS OF INFLATION

The Company's business and operations have not been materially affected by
inflation during the periods for which financial information is presented.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Working capital was $13,949,000 at December 31, 2001, compared to $13,644,000 at
December 31, 2000. This included cash and cash equivalents of $3,878,000 and
$1,333,000 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Trade receivables decreased $3,485,000, or 10.4%, to $29,996,000 at December 31,
2001 from $33,481,000 at December 31, 2000. The decrease in receivables is
primarily due to the decreased volume of net sales during the fourth quarter of
2001 compared to the fourth quarter of 2000 and timing differences in shipments
and payments received.

Continuing operations generated $9,062,000 of cash in 2001, compared to
consuming $543,000 of cash in 2000. The difference in cash flows was primarily
related to the difference in net earnings from continuing operations. Investing
activities for continuing operations consumed $8,116,000 of cash during 2001,
compared to $9,659,000 consumed during 2000, consisting primarily of the
purchase of property, plant and equipment. Financing activities for continuing
operations provided $1,773,000 of cash in 2001, compared to $11,216,000 of cash
in 2000, primarily from advances on our revolving credit facility.

We currently have a $30 million working capital credit facility from two banks,
amended effective April 4, 2002. As of December 31, 2001, we had used
approximately $29.6 million of the $30 million working capital facility. The
working capital credit facility bears interest at LIBOR, which was 2.45% at
December 31, 2001, plus 3.5%. At times during 2000 and 2001, including at
December 31, 2001, the Company was in violation of certain of financial loan
covenants. The amendment extends the current credit facility and modifies
required financial ratios, other loan covenants, and waives prior loan covenant
violations. The agreement to amend and extend the working capital credit
facility calls for the facility to expire August 30, 2002, and is subject to
documentation acceptable to both the banks and the Company. The working capital
credit facility is collateralized by the pledge of all common stock of the
subsidiaries owned by the Company and other assets of the company.

In connection with the amended working capital credit facility and notes payable
to a regional development authority and bank, the Company has agreed to certain
restrictive covenants which include, among other things, not paying dividends,
not repurchasing its stock, and maintenance of certain financial ratios at all
times including: a minimum current ratio, minimum tangible net worth, a maximum
ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth and a minimum fixed charge
coverage ratio. Unless this credit facility is renewed, it will expire in August
2002. Failure to negotiate an extension to this credit facility, enter into a
replacement facility, or obtain additional equity will materially adversely
impact our business and operations.

Continuing expansion may require substantial capital investment for the
manufacture of filtration products. Although we have been able to arrange debt
facilities or equity financing to date, there can be no assurance that
sufficient debt financing or equity will continue to be available in the future,
or that it will be available on acceptable terms. Failure to obtain sufficient
capital could materially adversely impact our growth strategy.



                                       19




In 1998, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to two million
shares of our common stock, which repurchase was completed in September 2000. On
September 22, 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an
additional two million shares of common stock through open market or negotiated
transactions. Further repurchases under this program are restricted under our
current line of credit agreement. As of April 12, 2002, approximately 575,000
shares had been repurchased in the open market under this authorization.

Outlook

We recently announced that we had adapted our biocontainment products for use as
part of a system for hardening government buildings, commercial office complexes
and public venues against airborne bioweapons such as anthrax and smallpox.
There is currently a tremendous amount of interest in these products, and major
market analysts have indicated this will continue, but we do not know how
reliable this expectation is, whether this interest will be sustained for a long
period of time, or whether this interest will actually produce significant sales
of these products. Any significant trend towards requiring hardening these types
of facilities against airborne bioweapons could have a significant impact on our
business.

During the third quarter of 2001, base wages at all operating facilities and
departments, including corporate headquarters, were reduced by 10%, with base
wages restored to previous levels on a month-to-month basis if specific
month-to-month performance goals are met at the individual facilities. The
majority of our facilities and operating groups have had their wages restored
for at least some of the months this program has been in place.

We are currently introducing new products for the retail marketplace, our Airia
indoor air cleaners and wholehouse residential air cleaning systems. In contrast
to our standard retail filters, the bulk of which sell for unit prices between
$0.50 and $10, these new products will sell for substantially more (between $200
and $5,000, with replacement packs ranging from $3/mo. to $15/mo). These are new
products which are substantially different in features, appearance and
performance from competing products, and we have no actual market data on how
successful they will be, and hence have no way of estimating their impact on the
financial results of the Company. Any sales of these units in significant
quantities will require additional financial resources, either through equity or
debt financing, to finance working capital requirements for production and sale
of these products. For example, placement of an initial stocking order of the
lowest-priced unit by a national retailer with 5,000 locations would result in
new sales in excess of $15 million, with commensurate working capital
requirements. At this point, we cannot estimate when or how much working capital
may be required to finance these new products.

Sales of air filtration products for semiconductor facilities, historically a
major market, are expected to be slow again during 2002, with most analysts
pushing recovery for this sector out to at least 2003. The current weak economy
is also expected to have a dampening effect on sales of air filtration products
across all product lines and end-user categories. As long as the current
weakness in the economy continues, in individual market segments or the
marketplace as a whole, our results will be negatively affected.

We have collected data that indicates that residential filter users replace
their filters, on average, approximately once per year. Manufacturers of
residential furnace and air conditioning systems recommend that these filters be
changed every month. A minor trend toward increased maintenance of these
residential heating and cooling systems could have a positive impact on our
business.

Our most common products, in terms of both unit and dollar volume, are
residential throw-away spun-glass filters, which usually sell for prices under
$1.00. Any increase in consumer concern regarding air pollution, airborne
pollens, allergens, and other residential airborne contaminants could result in
replacement of some of these products with higher value products. Our higher
value products include our NaturalAire higher-efficiency filters for residential
use, with associated sales prices typically over $5.00 each. Any such trend
would have a beneficial effect on our business. If our residential air cleaners
are successful, we believe replacement filter sales, and the increased awareness
of indoor air quality engendered by the simple presence of the air cleaners,
will help to create and/or accelerate this trend.

We believe there is currently a gradually increasing public awareness of the
issues surrounding indoor air quality and that this trend will continue for the
next several years. We also believe there is an increase in public concern
regarding the effects of indoor air quality on employee productivity, as well as
an increase in interest by standards- making bodies in creating specifications
and techniques for detecting, defining and solving indoor air quality


                                       20




problems. We further believe there will be an increase in interest in our
Absolute Isolation Barriers in the future because these products may be used in
both semiconductor and pharmaceutical manufacturing plants to prevent
cross-contamination between different lots and different processes being
performed at the same facility. These products also increase production yields
in many applications.

Currently, the largest domestic market for air filtration products is for
mid-range ASHRAE-rated products and HVAC systems, typically used in commercial
and industrial buildings. To date, our penetration of this market has been
relatively small. We believe our ability to offer a "one stop" supply of air
filtration products to HVAC distributors and wholesalers may increase our share
of this market. We also believe that our recently developed modular air handlers
and environmental tobacco smoke systems will enable us to expand sales to these
customers. We intend our new products to serve as high profile entrants with
distributors and manufacturers' representatives, who can then be motivated to
carry our complete product line.

This Outlook section, and other portions of this document, include certain
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, including, among others, those statements preceded by, following or
including the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate" or similar
expressions. These forward-looking statements are based largely on the current
expectations of management and are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and
uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from these
forward-looking statements. Important factors to consider in evaluating such
forward-looking statements include those discussed below under the heading
"Factors That May Affect Future Results" as well as:

  o the shortage of reliable market data regarding the air filtration market,

  o changes in external competitive market factors or in our internal budgeting
    process which might impact trends in our results of operations,

  o anticipated working capital or other cash requirements,

  o changes in our business strategy or an inability to execute our strategy
    due to unanticipated changes in the market,

  o product obsolescence due to the development of new technologies, and

  o various competitive factors that may prevent us from competing successfully
    in the marketplace.

In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the
events contemplated by the forward- looking statements contained in this Form
10-K will in fact occur.

Factors That May Affect Future Results

Failure to Manage Future Growth Could Adversely Impact Our Business Due to the
Strain on Our Management, Financial and Other Resources

If our business continues to grow, the additional growth will place burdens on
management to manage such growth while maintaining profitability. We have no
guarantee that we will be able to do so. Due to our recent acquisitions and
expansions, our net sales increased by approximately 400% from 1995 through
2001, (a compound annual growth rate of 25%). We may not continue to expand at
this rate. Our ability to compete effectively and manage future growth depends
on our ability to:

  o recruit, train and manage our work force, particularly in the areas of
    corporate management, accounting, research and development and operations,

  o manage production and inventory levels to meet product demand,

  o manage and improve production quality,

  o expand both the range of customers and the geographic scope of our customer
    base, and

  o improve financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures.

Any failure to manage growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition and results of operations.


                                       21




Any Delay in Procuring Financing for New Products or Failure to Adequately
Ramp-Up Production Capacity to Meet Demand Could Adversely Impact Our Business
Due to Strain on Financial Resources.

During 2002 we plan to introduce and mass market products which, if successful,
will require large amounts of additional financing and/or capital. This
financing may need to be available on short notice. Any failure to obtain such
financing, or delay in financing, could cause the failure of the new products
due to inability to deliver on time, and could adversely impact relationships
with current major accounts. In addition, delays in an untried supply chain, new
production chains, and other delays common to the launch of a new product line
could also adversely impact the success of the products, as well as current
relationships with major accounts.

Failure to Negotiate Appropriate Loan Extensions or Obtain Alternate Financing
on Beneficial Terms Could Negatively Impact Our Business and Shareholders

Our $30 million operating capital line expires in August 2002. If our current
and ongoing attempts to obtain extensions from our banks or refinancing from
other parties are unsuccessful, and we are unable to obtain alternate financing
on beneficial terms, we could be forced to obtain financing or raise equity
under terms which would not be favorable to us in order to continue to operate
our business, which could have a significant adverse impact on our business and
operations or lead to significant dilution to our existing shareholders.

Our Business May Suffer If Our Competitive Strategy is Not Successful

Our continued success depends on our ability to compete in an industry that is
highly competitive. This competition may increase as new competitors enter the
market. Several of these competitors may have longer operating histories and
greater financial, marketing and other resources than we do. Additionally, our
competitors may introduce new products or enhancements to products that could
cause a decline in sales or loss of market acceptance of our existing products.
Under our current competitive strategy, we endeavor to remain competitive by:

  o increasing our market share,

  o expanding our market through the introduction of new products which require
    periodic replacement, and

  o improving operating efficiencies.

Although our executive management team continues to review and monitor our
strategic plans, we have no assurance that we will be able to follow our current
strategy or that this strategy will be successful.

Our Market Share May Not Continue to Increase if we are Unable to Acquire
Additional Synergistic Businesses

In the past several years we have significantly increased our market share by
acquiring synergistic businesses. Although we intend to continue to increase our
market share in this manner, we have no assurance that future acquisition
opportunities will be available. Additionally, in the future we may not have
access to the substantial debt or equity financing to finance potential
acquisitions. Moreover, these types of transactions may result in potentially
dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of additional debt and
other acquisition-related expenses, all of which could adversely affect our
profitability or cash flows. Our strategy of growth through acquisition also
exposes us to the potential risks inherent in assessing the value, strengths,
weaknesses, and potential profitability of acquisition candidates and in
integrating the operations of acquired companies. We do not currently have any
binding agreements with respect to future acquisitions.

Our Business May Suffer if Our Strategy to Increase the Size and Customer Base
of the Air Filtration Market is Unsuccessful

We are developing new products as part of our strategy to increase the size and
customer base of the air filtration market. We have no assurance that this
strategy will be successful. We have no guarantee that any new products we
develop will gain acceptance in the marketplace, or that these products will be
successful. Additionally, we have no assurance we will be able to recoup the
expenditures associated with the development of these products. To succeed in
this area we must:

  o increase public awareness of the issues surrounding indoor air quality,

  o adequately address the unknown requirements of the potential customer base,

  o develop new products that are competitive in terms of price, performance
    and quality, and


                                       22




  o avoid significant increases in current expenditure levels in development,
    marketing and consumer education.

We May Experience Critical Equipment Failure Which Could Have a Material Adverse
Effect on Our Business

If we experience extended periods of downtime due to the malfunction or failure
of our automated production equipment, our business, financial condition and
operations may suffer. We design and manufacture much of the automated
production equipment used in our facilities. We also use other technologically
advanced equipment for which manufacturers may have limited production
capability or service experience. If we are unable to quickly repair our
equipment or quickly obtain new equipment or parts from outside manufacturers,
we could experience extended periods of downtime in the event of malfunction or
equipment failure.

If Automation of Our Production Lines Fails to Produce the Projected Results,
Our Business Will Suffer

We have only recently substantially completed a program to increase our gross
margins by automating portions of our production lines. Although the designs
have been extensively tested in the field, we have no assurance that the new
equipment will produce the expected beneficial results on our gross margins.
Additionally, we are not certain that any increases in efficiencies will not be
offset in the marketplace by competitors making similar improvements to their
facilities.

Our Plan to Centralize Overhead Functions May Not Produce the Anticipated
Benefits to Our Operating Results

We are currently completing the implementation of plans to centralize and
eliminate duplication of efforts between our subsidiaries in the following
areas:

  o purchasing,

  o production planning,

  o shipping coordination,

  o marketing,

  o accounting,

  o personnel management,

  o risk management, and

  o benefit plan administration.

We have no assurance that cutting overhead in this fashion will have the
anticipated benefits to our operating results. Additionally, we have no
assurance that these reorganizations will not significantly disrupt the
operations of the affected subsidiaries.

Our Success Depends on Our Ability to Retain and Attract Key Personnel

Our success and future operating results depend in part upon our ability to
retain our executives and key personnel, many of whom would be difficult to
replace. Our success also depends on our ability to attract highly qualified
engineering, manufacturing, technical, sales and support personnel for our
operations. Competition for such personnel, particularly qualified engineers, is
intense, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in attracting
or retaining such personnel. Our failure to attract or retain such persons could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results
of operations.

Our Current Distribution Channels May be Unavailable if Our Manufacturers'
Representatives Decide to Work Primarily With One of Our Competitors

We provide our manufacturers' representatives with the ability to offer a full
product line of air filtration products to existing and new customers. Some of
our competitors offer similar arrangements. We do not have exclusive
relationships with most of our representatives. Consequently, if our
representatives decide to work primarily with one of our competitors, our
current distribution channels, and hence, our sales, could be significantly
reduced.

Management Controls a Significant Percentage of Our Stock

As of April 12, 2002, our directors and executive officers beneficially held
approximately 43.8% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, such
shareholders effectively control or significantly influence all matters
requiring shareholder approval. These matters include the election of directors
and approval of significant corporate


                                       23




transactions. Such concentration of ownership may also have the effect of
delaying or preventing a change in control.

We May be Required to Issue Stock in the Future That Will Dilute the Value of
Our Existing Stock

If we issue the following securities, such securities may dilute the value of
the securities that our existing stockholders now hold.

We have granted warrants to purchase a total of 540,000 of our shares of common
stock to various parties with exercise prices ranging from $5.54 to $14.73 per
share. All of the warrants are currently exercisable. As a result, if the
warrant holders exercise these warrants, the interests of current shareholders
may be diluted.

We have granted options to purchase a total of 4,688,300 shares of common stock
to various parties with exercise prices ranging from $1.88 to $8.50 per share.
The majority of these options are currently exercisable. Additionally, if the
option holders exercise their options, the interests of current shareholders may
be diluted..

Our Shareholders May Not Realize Certain Opportunities Because of Our Charter
Provisions and North Carolina Law

Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws contain provisions that are designed to
provide our board of directors with time to consider whether a hostile takeover
offer is in our best interest and the best interests of our shareholders. These
provisions may discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or
prevent a change of control in our business. Additionally, we are subject to the
Control Shares Acquisition Act of the State of North Carolina. This act provides
that any person who acquires "control shares" of a publicly held North Carolina
corporation will not have voting rights with respect to the acquired shares
unless a majority of the disinterested shareholders of the corporation vote to
grant such rights. This could deprive shareholders of opportunities to realize
takeover premiums for their shares or other advantages that large accumulations
of stock would typically provide.

Our Business Can be Significantly Affected by Environmental Laws

The constantly changing body of environmental laws and regulations may
significantly influence our business and products. These laws and regulations
require that various environmental standards be met and impose liability for the
failure to comply with such standards. While we endeavor at each of our
facilities to assure compliance with environmental laws and regulations, and are
currently not aware of any ongoing issues of this nature, we cannot be certain
that our operations or activities, or historical operations by others at our
locations, will not result in civil or criminal enforcement actions or private
actions that could have a materially adverse effect on our business. We have, in
the past, and may, in the future, purchase or lease properties with unresolved
potential violations of federal or state environmental regulations. In these
transactions, we have been successful in obtaining sufficient indemnification
and mitigating the impact of the issues without recognizing significant expenses
associated with litigation and cleanup. However, purchasing or leasing these
properties requires us to weigh the cost of resolving these issues and the
likelihood of litigation against the potential economic and business benefits of
the transaction. If we fail to correctly identify, resolve and obtain
indemnification against these risks, they could have a material adverse impact
on our financial position.

Because of the foregoing factors, as well as other variables affecting our
operating results, past financial performance should not be considered a
reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use
historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in foreign currency
exchange rates and interest rate risks. Market risk is the potential loss
arising from adverse change in market rates and prices, such as foreign currency
exchange and interest rates. For Flanders, these exposures are primarily related
to the sale of product to foreign customers and changes in interest rates. We do
not have any derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or
speculative purposes.


                                       24




The fair value of the Company's total long-term debt, including capital leases,
at December 31, 2001 was approximately $51,729,000. Market risk was estimated as
the potential decrease (increase) in future earnings and cash flows resulting
from a hypothetical 10% increase (decrease) in the Company's estimated weighted
average borrowing rate at December 31, 2001. Although most of the interest on
the Company's debt is indexed to a market rate, there would be no material
effect on the future earnings or cash flows related to the Company's total debt
for such a hypothetical change.

We have only a limited involvement with derivative financial instruments. We
have two interest rate swap agreements to hedge against the potential impact on
earnings from increases in market interest rates of two variable rate bonds.
Under the interest rate swap agreements, we receive or make payments on a
monthly basis, based on the differential between 5.14% and a tax exempt interest
rate as determined by a remarketing agent. This interest rate swap is accounted
for as a cash flow hedge in accordance with SFAS 133 and SFAS 138. Gains or
losses related to inefficiencies of the cash flow hedge were included in net
income during the period related to hedge ineffectiveness. The tax effected fair
market value of the interest rate swap of $653,990 is included in other
comprehensive income. The interest rate swap contracts expire in 2013 and 2015.

The Company's financial position is not materially affected by fluctuations in
currencies against the U.S. dollar, since assets held outside the United States
are negligible. Risks due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are
negligible, as the preponderance of our foreign sales occur over short periods
of time or are demarcated in U.S. dollars.

OTHER INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Board Meetings and Committees

During 2001, the Board of Directors met three times and also executed various
resolutions and written actions in lieu of meetings. All directors were in
attendance at each of these meetings. The Board of Directors has an Audit
Committee and a Compensation Committee. The Audit Committee reviews the results
and scope of the audit and other services provided by the Company's independent
auditors, reviews and evaluates the Company's internal audit and control
functions, and monitors transactions between the Company and its employees,
officers and directors. The Compensation Committee administers the Company's
equity incentive plans and designates compensation levels for officers and
directors of the Company. The Audit Committee met four times during 2001. The
Compensation Committee met two times during 2001.

Currently, the Audit Committee consists of Messrs. Stallman, Fredericks, and
Fleming, with Mr. Stallman serving as chair. The Compensation Committee consists
of Messrs. Fleming, Fredericks and Amerson, with Mr. Fleming serving as chair.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

During 1996, the Company adopted the Long Term Incentive Plan to assist the
Company in securing and retaining key employees and consultants. The LTI Plan
authorizes grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock
appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock performance shares and dividend
equivalents to officers and key employees of the Company and outside consultants
to the Company. There are 1,986,800 shares of Common Stock reserved for award
under the LTI Plan. During 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company awarded options to
purchase 50,000, 12,500 and 52,850 shares of Common Stock under the LTI Plan,
respectively.

The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation
Committee determines the total number and type of awards granted in any year,
the number and selection of employees or consultants to receive awards, the
number and type of awards granted to each grantee and the other terms and
provisions of the awards, subject to the limitations set forth in the LTI Plan.

Stock Option Grants. The Compensation Committee has the authority to select
individuals who are to receive options under the LTI Plan and to specify the
terms and conditions of each option so granted (incentive or nonqualified), the
exercise price (which must be at least equal to the fair market value of the
common stock on the date of grant with respect to incentive stock options), the
vesting provisions and the option term. Unless otherwise provided by the
Compensation Committee, any option granted under the LTI Plan expires the
earlier of five years from the date of grant or, three months after the
optionee's termination of service with the Company if the termination of
employment is attributable to (i) disability, (ii) retirement, or (iii) any
other reason, or 15 months after the optionee's death. As of April 12, 2002,
there are 423,300 options outstanding under the LTI Plan.

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Compensation Committee may grant SARs separately
or in tandem with a stock option award. A SAR is an incentive award that permits
the holder to receive (per share covered thereby) an equal amount by


                                       29




which the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of exercise
exceeds the fair market value of such share on the date the SAR was granted.
Under the LTI Plan, the Company may pay such amount in cash, in common stock or
a combination of both. Unless otherwise provided by the Compensation Committee
at the time of grant, the provisions of the LTI Plan relating to the termination
of employment of a holder of a stock option will apply equally, to the extent
applicable, to the holder of a SAR. A SAR granted in tandem with a related
option will generally have the same terms and provisions as the related option
with respect to exercisability. A SAR granted separately will have such terms as
the Compensation Committee may determine, subject to the provisions of the LTI
Plan. As of April 12, 2002, no SARs are outstanding under the LTI Plan.

Performance Shares. The Compensation Committee is authorized under the LTI Plan
to grant performance shares to selected employees. Performance shares are rights
granted to employees to receive cash, stock, or other property, the payment of
which is contingent upon achieving certain performance goals established by the
Compensation Committee. As of April 12, 2002, no performance shares are
outstanding under the LTI Plan.

Restricted Stock Awards. The Compensation Committee is authorized under the LTI
Plan to issue shares of restricted common stock to eligible participants on such
terms and conditions and subject to such restrictions, if any, outstanding under
the LTI Plan. As of April 12, 2002, no restricted shares have been awarded under
the LTI Plan.

Dividend Equivalents. The Compensation Committee may also grant dividend
equivalent rights to participants subject to such terms and conditions as may be
selected by the Compensation Committee. Dividend equivalent rights entitle the
holder to receive payments equal to dividends with respect to all or a portion
of the number of shares of stock subject to an option award or SARs, as
determined by the Committee. As of April 12, 2002, no dividend equivalents are
outstanding under the LTI Plan.

              REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



Board of Directors and Stockholders
Flanders Corporation


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Flanders
Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Flanders
Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

                    FLANDERS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note A. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The nature of the business and a summary of the significant accounting policies
consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated
financial statements follows.

1. Nature of business

The Company designs, manufactures and sells air filters and related products. It
is focused on providing complete environmental control systems for end uses
ranging from controlling contaminants in residences and commercial office
buildings through specialized manufacturing environments for semiconductors and
pharmaceuticals. The Company also designs and manufactures much of its own
production equipment to automate processes to decrease labor costs associated
with its standard products. The Company also produces glass-based air filter
media for many of its products. The vast majority of the Company's current
revenues come from the sale of after-market replacement filters, since air
filters are typically placed in equipment designed to last much longer than the
filters.

The Company sells some products for end users outside of the United States
through domestic specialty cleanroom contractors. These sales are accounted for
as domestic sales. The Company also sells products through foreign distributors,
primarily in Europe, and a wholly owned subsidiary, which sells to customers in
the Far East. Sales through foreign distributors and its wholly owned foreign
subsidiary total less than 5% of net sales. Assets held outside the United
States are negligible.

2. Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations
of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned except
for Superior Die Cut, of which 50% is owned by two officers and
directors and 50% is owned by other shareholders unrelated to the Company
or any of its officers and directors.

3. Significant customers

Net sales for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 included sales to
the following major customers, together with the receivables due from those
customers:



                                                                       Trade Receivable Balance
                                     Amount of Net Sales                  As of December 31,
                         ------------------------------------------   ---------------------------
                             2001           2000           1999           2001           2000
                         ------------   ------------   ------------   ------------   ------------
                                                                      
Customer A               $ 15,498,460   $ 16,527,125   $ 16,441,644   $  1,084,449   $  1,677,274
Customer B                 29,618,268     24,772,898     21,148,340      4,781,894      3,256,765



4. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

                    FLANDERS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note A. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
        - Continued

5. Cash and cash equivalents

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times exceed
federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such
accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk
on cash and cash equivalents. For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company
considers all cash accounts which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or
designated for equipment acquisitions and certificates of deposit which have an
original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

6. Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying amount of cash equivalents, trade receivables and trade payables
approximates fair value at December 31, 2001 and 2000 because of the short
maturity of those instruments. Based on the borrowing rates currently available
to the Company for bank loans with similar maturities and similar collateral
requirements, the fair value of notes payable and long-term debt approximates
the carrying amounts at December 31, 2001 and 2000.

7. Inventories

Inventories are valued at lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.

8. Comprehensive income

FAS 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," requires disclosure of comprehensive
income in addition to the existing income statement. Other comprehensive income
(loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period, from transactions and
other events, excluding changes resulting from investments by owners (e.g.,
supplemental stock offerings) and distributions to owners (e.g., dividends).

9. Derivative financial instruments

Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities" (SFAS 133) as amended by SFAS 138, "Accounting for
Certain Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- an Amendment to
FASB Statement No. 133." SFAS 133 and SFAS 138 established new accounting
and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging
activities. All derivatives, whether designated in hedging relationships
or not, are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. If
the derivative is a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of changes in
the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive
income and are recognized in the income statement when the hedged item
affects earnings. Ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of
cash flow hedges are recognized in earnings. The cumulative effect of the
adoption of SFAS 133 and SFAS 138, as of January 1, 2001 resulted in a
$579,273 decrease in other comprehensive income, a $386,182 decrease in
deferred tax liability and an increase in long-term liabilities - other of
$965,455, and had no impact on net earnings.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note A. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
        - Continued

9. Derivative financial instruments - Continued

The Company has only limited involvement with derivative financial instruments.
The Company has two interest rate swap agreements to hedge against the potential
impact on earnings from increases in market interest rates of two variable rate
bonds. Under the interest rate swap agreements, the Company receives or makes
payments on a monthly basis, based on the differential between 5.14% and a tax
exempt interest rate as determined by a remarketing agent. This interest rate
swap is accounted for as a cash flow hedge in accordance with SFAS 133 and SFAS
138. The tax effected fair market value of the interest rate swap of $653,990 at
December 31, 2001 is included in other comprehensive loss. The interest rate
swap contracts expire in 2013 and 2015.

The following is a rollforward of the components of other comprehensive loss
for the year ended December 31, 2001:



                                                               
    Transition adjustment from adoption of SFAS 133               $ 579,273
    Net change associated with hedge transactions                    74,717
                                                                  ---------
    Ending balance deferred in other comprehensive loss           $ 653,990
                                                                  =========


10. Goodwill

The Company has classified as goodwill the cost in excess of fair value of the
net assets (including tax attributes) of companies acquired in purchase
transactions. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight line basis over 40
years. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates goodwill for impairment
by comparing expectations of non-discounted future cash flows excluding interest
costs with the carrying value of goodwill for each subsidiary having a material
goodwill balance. Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes that
no impairment of goodwill exists at December 31, 2001.

11. Trademarks and trade names

Trademarks and trade names are being amortized on a straight line basis over 17
years. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates the value of trademarks
and tradenames for impairment by comparing expectations of non-discounted future
cash flows excluding interest costs with the carrying value of trademarks and
tradenames for each trademark or tradename having a material unamortized
balance. Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes that no
impairment of trademarks and tradenames exists at December 31, 2001.

12. Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed by the
straight-line method over estimated useful lives. Amortization of equipment and
property held under capital leases is included in depreciation expense. The
carrying amount of all long-lived assets is evaluated periodically to determine
if adjustment to the depreciation and amortization period or to the unamortized
balance is warranted. In the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company changed its
estimate of remaining useful life of certain machinery and equipment from ten to
fifteen years. The Company made these changes to better reflect the estimated
periods during which such assets will remain in service. The net effect during
the fourth quarter was to decrease depreciation expenses by approximately
$224,256. Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes that no
impairment of property and equipment exists at December 31, 2001.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note A. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
        - Continued

13. Revenue recognition

Sales are recognized when shipments are made to customers. Rebates, allowances
for damaged goods and other advertising and marketing program rebates are
accrued pursuant to contractual provisions.

14. Income taxes

Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets
are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the
effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

15. Earnings (loss) per share

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing earnings (loss) available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
each period. Diluted EPS is similarly calculated, except that the denominator
includes common shares that may be issued subject to existing rights with
dilutive potential, except when their inclusion would be antidilutive.

16. Stock Options

The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related Interpretations
in accounting for its employee stock options as provided for under FASB
Statement 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123).

17. Outbound shipping expenses

Outbound shipping expenses are included in "operating expenses," not in "cost of
goods sold."

18. Advertising

The costs of advertising are expensed as incurred.

19. Warranty

The costs of warranties on the Company's products have not been historically
significant and are expensed as incurred.

20. Self-Insurance

The Company is self-insured for certain losses relating to workers' compensation
claims and medical benefits. The Company has purchased stop-loss coverage in
order to limit the exposure to any significant levels of workers' compensation
and medical benefits liability claims.

Self-insured losses are accrued based upon the Company's estimate of the
aggregate liability for uninsured claims incurred using the Company's historical
experience.

21. Reclassifications

Certain account balances for 2000 and 1999 have been reclassified with no effect
on net earnings or retained earnings to be consistent with the classification
adopted for the year ended December 31, 2001.

22. Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
(SFAS 142). Under SFAS 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives
are no longer amortized but are reviewed annually (or more frequently if
impairment indicators arise) for impairment. Separable intangible assets that
are not deemed to have indefinite lives will continue to be amortized over their
useful lives (but with no maximum life). The amortization provisions of SFAS 142
apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. With
respect to goodwill and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001, the
Company is required to adopt SFAS 142 effective January 1, 2002. The adoption of
this new accounting pronouncement has not been fully evaluated, but is expected
to have an impact on the Company's financial statements and results of
operations, as goodwill with a net carrying amount of $27,612,236 as of December
31, 2001 will no longer be amortized.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations," (SFAS 143) which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2002. Management does not expect the adoption of SFAS 143 to have a
material impact on the Company's financial statements and results of operations.

In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS 144). The Company is required to adopt SFAS
144 no later than its first fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2001.
Management does not expect the adoption of SFAS 144 to have a material impact on
the Company's financial statements or results of operations.


Note B. Mergers and Acquisitons

Effective April 1, 1999 the Company purchased the Tidewater group of companies,
consisting of Tidewater Air Filter Fabrication Company, Inc., Newport
Manufacturing, Inc., and Bio-Tec Inc., for a total cost of approximately
$1,787,000, net of cash received, in a transaction recorded as a purchase.
Goodwill of approximately $647,000 was recorded in this transaction. Tidewater
is an air filter distributor and service organization. Prior to the acquisition,
Tidewater was an exclusive distributor of a competitor's products. The Company's
financial statements include the operating results of the Tidewater group of
companies from April 1, 1999.

Pro forma results of operations of the Company as though Tidewater had been
acquired as of January 1, 1999, are not presented because the pro forma would
not be materially different than those presented.

Note D. Discontinued Operations

During 1997, the Company established a new subsidiary, Airseal West, Inc., to
serve as a manufacturer of industrial air handlers, custom housings, and related
products for the western U.S. The market opportunities envisioned by this
venture failed to materialize, and Airseal West focused its primary efforts on
perceived opportunities in businesses and products unrelated to air filtration,
including sporting goods, vending equipment and other general manufacturing.

In December 1999, the Company adopted a formal plan to close Airseal West, a
wholly owned subsidiary, and sell its various assets and product lines to
unrelated third parties. The closure was completed in the first quarter of 2001.
During the year ended December 31, 2000, approximately $3 million of fixed
assets and inventory were transferred to other subsidiaries, with other assets
remaining held for sale. The closure was completed in the first quarter of 2001,
although various assets, consisting primarily of non-filtration inventories,
manufacturing equipment, designs and intellectual properties, were not sold
until later in the year.

Operating results of Airseal West, including net sales of Airseal West,
are shown separately in the accompanying statement of operations and are
combined into the heading, "Loss from operations of discontinued
subsidiary." Net sales of Airseal West for 2001, 2000 and 1999 were
approximately $68,000, $1,710,000 and $2,354,000, respectively.

Net assets of Airseal West consist of the following at December 31:

                                ============

The line of credit agreements have amounts outstanding on revolving credit
facilities with banks which provide lines of credit up to a maximum principal
amount of $30,000,000 at December 31, 2001 and 2000. The lines of credit bear
interest rates at LIBOR, which was 2.45% at December 31, 2001, plus 3.5%. The
line of credit is collateralized by the pledge of all common stock of the
subsidiaries owned by the Company and other assets of the Company. In connection
with the lines of credit agreements and notes payable to a regional development
authority and bank, the Company has agreed to certain restrictive covenants
which include, among other things, not paying dividends, not repurchasing its
stock, and maintenance of certain financial ratios at all times including: a
minimum current ratio, minimum tangible net worth, a maximum ratio of total
liabilities to tangible net worth and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. At
times during 2001 and 2000, including at December 31, 2001, the Company was in
violation of certain of these financial loan covenants.

Subsequent to December 31, 2001, the Company signed an agreement to amend and
extend the current credit agreement which modifies required financial ratios,
other loan covenants, and waives prior loan covenant violations. The agreement
to amend and extend the line of credit agreement calls for the line of credit
agreement to expire August 30, 2002, and is subject to finalization of
documentation acceptable to both the banks and the Company.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note K. Commitments and Contingencies

1. Employment Agreements:

The President and Chief Executive Officer, and the Chief Operating Officer/Vice
President Finance/Chief Financial Officer, both have employment agreements which
expire in December 2010. The employment agreements provide for an annual salary
of $250,000 for each officer. In addition to a base salary and bonuses which may
be paid at the discretion of the Board of Directors, the agreements provide for
a termination payment of the minimum amount due under the employment contract if
the officer had served his full term, in the event the officer's employment is
terminated under various circumstances.

2. Litigation:

During 2000, the Company settled its lawsuit with a customer regarding a
purchase of allegedly defective filters. As part of the settlement, the Company
agreed to pay the customer $1.5 million, accept the return of the filters as
payment for its account receivable, and supply the customer with filters at
reduced prices for future work. The Company has sued the supplier of the
urethane sealant used in the allegedly defective filters for supplying a sealant
which did not meet specifications for the project. The amount and probability of
any settlement or award is unknown at this time.

The Company is involved in a dispute with Liberty Mutual, a former
workers' compensation administrator and stop-loss insurer for some of the
Company's subsidiaries. The administrator has alleged that they are
entitled to be reimbursed for certain costs incurred in administering
various insurance claims. The Company has counter-sued, claiming that the
administrator was negligent in its duties as administrator of our claims,
that it made payments on our behalf which were specifically disallowed,
that they refused to follow instructions given to them by us, that they
failed to meet minimal acceptable standards for administering claims, and
that such failures constituted a material dereliction of their
responsibilities as administrator, as well as other claims related to
malfeasance and negligence. In addition, Liberty Mutual charged certain
administrative fees over and above the actual costs incurred which the
Company is contesting. The amount and probability of any payment or
settlement is unknown at this time. Among the issues being considered is
the matter of currently unresolved workers' compensation claims whose
estimate of potential loss may change as a result of this litigation.
While management believes it has reserved an adequate amount for
settlement of these claims, there is no guarantee that the Company's
actual liability will not exceed its current estimate. Accordingly, these
matters, if resolved in a manner different from management's estimate,
could have a material effect on operating results or cash flows in the
future.

From time to time, the Company is a party as plaintiff or defendant to various
legal proceedings related to our normal business operations. In the opinion of
management, although the outcome of any legal proceeding cannot be predicted
with certainty, the ultimate liability of the Company in connection with its
legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position, but could be material to the results of operations in any
one future accounting period. Defense costs are expensed as incurred.

Note L. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) salary reduction plan intended to
qualify under section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 ("Salary
Savings Plan"). The Salary Savings Plan allows eligible employees, as defined in
the plan document, to defer up to 15 percent of their eligible compensation,
with the Company contributing an amount determined at the discretion of the
Company's Board of Directors. The Company contributed approximately $118,000,
$230,000 and $195,000 to the Salary Savings Plan for the years ended December
31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

The Company's employee benefit program also includes health, accident, dental,
life insurance and disability benefits. Substantially all the Company's
subsidiaries have elected to self-insure the health and accident insurance at an
individual maximum ranging from $30,000 to $90,000 per employee per claim year.
A stop loss policy is maintained for subsidiaries that are self-insured, which
covers 100 percent of liability over the self- insured amounts. The employer's
portion of claims charged to operations totaled approximately $3,017,868,
$2,045,000 and $1,100,000 for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note L. Employee Benefit Plans - Continued

During 1996, the Company adopted the Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTI Plan") to
assist the Company in securing and retaining key employees and consultants. The
LTI Plan authorizes grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock
options, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock performance shares
and dividend equivalents to officers and key employees of the Company and
outside consultants to the Company. There are 1,986,800 shares of Common Stock
reserved for award under the LTI Plan. During 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company
awarded options to purchase 40,000, 12,500 and 52,850 shares of Common Stock
under the LTI Plan, respectively (Note N).

During 1996, the Company also adopted the 1996 Director Option Plan which
provides for the grant of stock options to outside directors of the Company who
were elected or appointed after February 1, 1996, and who were not existing
directors on the effective date of the plan. Each such outside director who is
serving as a director on January 1 of each calendar year will automatically be
granted an option to acquire up to 5,000 shares of Common Stock on such date,
assuming such outside director had been serving for at least six months prior to
the date of grant. The Company has reserved 500,000 shares of its Common Stock
for issuance under the 1996 Director Option Plan which expires in 2006. During
2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company awarded options to purchase 60,000, 0 and
105,000 shares, respectively, of Common Stock under the 1996 Director Option
Plan (Note N).

Note M. Related Party Transactions and Balances

At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company had notes receivable secured by
common stock classified as contra-equity of $8,325,978 and $7,891,208,
respectively, due from various directors, officers, shareholders and employees,
with interest thereon varying between 3.45% and 8.75%, maturing at various dates
to December 2010 and callable on demand by the Company.

During November 2000, the Company entered into a five-year operating lease
whereby the Company is leasing 138,000 square feet of a building 50% owned by
two officers and directors of the Company for $27,520 per month. The Company
believes this lease is at prevailing market rates.

On January 2, 2001, the Company purchased and leased back $797,000 in
manufacturing equipment from Superior Die Cut, a vendor of raw materials owned
by two officers and directors. The Company has also loaned this supplier
$500,000, secured by a building and used to pay off an existing mortgage, and
$400,000 to repay a credit line secured by inventory, receivables and other
current assets. Due to the significance of the loans and advances the Company
has made to Superior Die Cut, and its ability to exercise control over this
company, the Company has consolidated the accounts and operations of this
entity. The Company made payments of $261,352 and $233,831 in 2001 and 2000,
respectively, to this supplier. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company owed
a total of $86,614 and $76,991, respectively, to this vendor.

Note N. Stock Options and Warrants - Continued

As permitted under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America, grants to employees under the LTI Plan and other grants to employees
of options are accounted for following APB Opinion No. 25 and related
Interpretations. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for
grants to employees under the LTI Plan, since all options granted had an
exercise price at or above the quoted market price of the Company's common stock
on the date of grant. Had compensation cost for the LTI Plan been determined
based on the grant date fair values of awards using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model , reported net earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per common
share would have been changed to the pro forma amounts shown below for the years
ended December 31:

In determining the pro forma amounts above, the value of each grant is estimated
at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option model with the following
weighted average assumptions for options granted in 2001, 2000 and 1999:
Dividend rate of 0%; risk-free interest rate of 4.00%, 6.00% and 5.66%,
respectively; expected lives of 5 years; and expected price volatility of 88%,
125% and 67%, respectively.

As of December 31, 2001, 5,086,250 options and warrants described in Note
N were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the market
price of the underlying stock was less than the exercise price. As of
December 31, 2000 all options and warrants described in Note N were
excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because 2000 was a loss year
and inclusion of options and warrants would have been anti-dilutive. As of
December 31, 1999 3,953,050 options and warrants described in Note N were
excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the market price of
the underlying stock was less than the exercise price.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of
Flanders Corporation and Subsidiaries referred to in our report dated
March 15, 2002, except for the last paragraph of Note H, as to which the
date is April 4, 2002, which is included in the annual report and Form
10-K, we have also audited Schedule II for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2001. In our opinion, this schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole,
presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth
therein.
