FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS ANNOUNCES FULL YEAR, 2008 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Conference call is scheduled for March 27, 2009. See the time and dial in number below.

VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Mar 26, 2009 – FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS INTERNATIONAL, INC. (NYSE Amex: FSI, FRANKFURT: FXT), a developer and manufacturer of biodegradable and environmentally safe, water and energy conservation technology, as well as anti-scalant and crop nutrient enhancement products, today announces financial results for the full year ended Dec. 31, 2008.

Mr. Daniel B. O’Brien, CEO, states, “2008 was a transformational year for FSI and I’m extremely proud of our team. Despite a substantial and well documented global economic slowdown, FSI grew its top-line 45% and increased operating cash flow from $170 thousand in 2007 to $1.9 million in 2008.” Mr. O’Brien continues, “We are very pleased with this year’s performance given not only the increased sales but more importantly the move to profitability. FSI has been cash flow positive for many years however, 2008 is the first profit year for the Company since the acquisition of the NanoChem division.

Sales in the fourth quarter (Q4), were $2,238,213, up 32% when compared to sales of $1,701,359 in the corresponding period a year ago. Sales for the full year 2008 were $10,756,654, up 45%, compared to $7,431,791 for full year 2007. The result was a GAAP accounting net income of $0.03 per weighted average share compared net loss of $0.07 per weighted average share in full year 2007.

Non-GAAP operating cash flow: (for details see table below) For the 12 months ending Dec. 31, 2008 net income reflects $1,507,848 of non-cash charges (depreciation, stock option expenses, etc), and when non-cash charges are removed, the Company shows positive operating cash flow of $1,912,453 or $0.14 per share. This compares with 2007 operating cash flow of $167,918, or $0.01 per share, once non-cash charges are removed.

We grew our NanoChem Division by 50% including increases in all market segments [oilfield, detergent and agriculture].

Despite slowdowns caused by equipment suppliers and steam permitting, the sugar to aspartic acid plant progressed quickly toward completion. By using sugar in Alberta, we de-link our raw materials from oil, our current source, shorten our supply line by several weeks and thousands of miles and dramatically improve the sustainable content of our finished product.

We reduced costs substantially in both the Watersavr and swimming pool divisions in headcount and overhead, without any reduction in effectiveness or loss of future opportunity.

We obtained the financing for the debt portion of the new factory on terms of 0% for 10 years and 5% for 6 years.

The NanoChem division continues to be the dominant source of revenue and cash flow for the Company. New opportunities continue to unfolding in detergent, oil field extraction and fertilizer use to further increase sales in this division. In past years, the NanoChem Division sales have been less volatile quarter over quarter than FSI’s other divisions. However, due to sales into agriculture, increased volatility will be more apparent going forward.
