Press Release Body = MAINZ, Germany, Feb. 28, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Coattec
Industries, Inc. (Other OTC:CTCK.PK - News) announces that the Company is in
discussions with Diversi-Plast, the world's largest manufacturer of corrugated
plastic products, to manufacture Coattec's proprietary roofing foils and housewraps
Coattecflex(tm), Coatflex(tm), and Difflex(tm) for distribution in the United
States.
Both companies plan to investigate the feasibility of subcontracting production of
Coattec's roofing products within the existing facilities of the LDI Group, which
owns Diversi-Plast. If an agreement were to be reached, Coattec and Diversi-Plast
would work together to determine the most effective sales and distribution channels
within the U.S. market.
The outsourcing of manufacturing in the United States corresponds with the Company's
initial business strategy. In addition to realizing great cost savings as a result
of outsourcing, Coattec will be able to market its proprietary roofing products in
the U.S. more rapidly than if it were to construct its own manufacturing facility.
Bernd Meinecke, President and CEO of Coattec Industries, commented, ``We are pleased
to begin discussions that will advance the U.S. manufacturing and distribution
process of our roofing foils and underlays. With the successful execution of the
non-competition agreement with Diversi-Plast announced earlier this year, it is a
logical next step to strengthen the foundation of our business relationship and
explore manufacturing opportunities within the United States. It is very important
that we maintain the integrity and quality of our proprietary products during the
manufacturing process and we have full confidence that Diversi-Plast can help us
achieve this.''
Bernd Meinecke, President and CEO of Coattec Industries also stated that the Company
is fully aware of the circulation of unsolicited faxes about Coattec. He has
reaffirmed that the Company is not responsible nor are any parties commissioned by
the Company responsible for these faxes and Coattec is doing everything in its power
to identify and pursue those responsible and put an end to the campaign.
