Press Release Body = Petersburgh, NY - April 2007 - The Industrial Products Division
of Taconic will feature TacWeld 69 tape and fabric as a release surface for PVC
window and door frame fabrication at PACex International on May 8th - 10th in
Toronto, Canada.

TacWeld 69, a grey PTFE coated fiberglass material with silicone adhesive, is used
as a sleeve to cover heated platens in the manufacture of vinyl windows. The
non-stick surface of the material prevents hot PVC from sticking to the platen
during the welding of PVC profiles. The release quality of the PTFE surface
maximizes the life of the sleeves and reduces machine down time. TacWeld 69 also
provides an improved end product as it facilitates weld quality.

Increased wear resistance, abrasion resistance, cut through resistance and puncture
resistance make this durable material the trusted choice among window fabricators
for improved productivity. TacWeld 69 performs at continuous temperatures of +260°
C, offers superior release and is available in custom pre-cut pieces or in standard
width of 1000 mm. TacWeld 69 has been developed for use in various types of welding
machines.

Taconic's line of PTFE coated fabrics, belting materials and pressure sensitive
tapes offer high performance in the packaging, food processing and material handling
industries, which are the focus of the PACex show. These products provide a host of
benefits that enhance operating efficiency for fenestration and other industries.

For nearly fifty years, Taconic has also served the aerospace, apparel, chemical,
textile, paper and plastics industries with high quality PTFE coated fabrics, belts
and tapes. The lightweight, non-stick, durable, chemically resistant properties in
conjunction with the dielectric and thermal characteristics of Taconic's products
make them suitable in many demanding applications.
