"This is really a thrilling moment for Plasticon," said Jim Turek, President and CEO of Plasticon International, Inc. "In 2006, through the Pro Mold facility, we have controlled the manufacturing process from start to finish, which has led to outstanding production efficiencies and vastly improved quality control. I am happy to report that along with those improved manufacturing processes, we have had a corresponding improvement in revenues in the first two quarters of 2006. We encourage our shareholders and the public to view the footage by clicking on the link below. We believe that anyone who views this footage will be impressed by the quality control practices that Pro Mold, Inc. has in place. We will continue to strive to be an industry leader in quality control. Additionally, we encourage shareholders to review the strength test of Plasticon's revolutionary slab bolster product, which is demonstrated by Pro Mold plant manager Gary Gutterman. In the demonstration, the slab bolster holds approximately 3,000 pounds sitting across four points of the slab bolster, and it does not break or crash under the weight and pressure. We believe that Pro Mold, Inc. has tremendous potential for continued growth going forward, and we look forward to continuing to improve operations at the facility."
