<P align="center" style="font-size: 11pt"><B>Core Molding Technologies Launches New Business, Manufacturing Plant in Warsaw, Kentucky</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt"><B>COLUMBUS, Ohio</B>, Aug. 22, 2011 &#151; Core Molding Technologies, Inc. (NYSE Amex: CMT), a leading North
American molder of fiberglass reinforced plastics and compounder of custom sheet molding compound
(SMC), today announced it has established a new operating subsidiary and manufacturing location to
support a significant new business venture outside its traditional heavy truck customer base.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Core has formed the subsidiary, Core Specialty Composites, LLC, to manage the new business. Core
Specialty Composites will operate out of a manufacturing site, located in Warsaw, Kentucky. The
facility includes 62,000 sq.ft. of leased manufacturing space. Core&#146;s existing plant in Batavia,
Ohio, will provide additional management support to the Warsaw location, and the operation will be
under the direction of Robert (Bob) Brennan, Plant Manager &#150; Batavia.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Operations initially will include production of large-format parts using a customized fiberglass
hand lamination process. Development and staffing activities are underway. Our people will be
on-site in September and active production is planned to begin early in 2012. The Warsaw operation
is expected to employ approximately 40 people. Revenue for the new business is projected to be $5
to $8&nbsp;million annually.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">&#147;We are excited about this expansion outside our traditional markets,&#148; said Kevin Barnett,
President and Chief Executive Officer of Core Molding Technologies. &#147;For some time, we have been
focused on growing our business with industries beyond our traditional heavy truck accounts, and
this is the latest of several successes in that regard.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Core&#146;s director of market development, Mark Murfitt, led the effort to launch the new business.
&#147;Our work has included a great deal of product development. Additionally, we&#146;ll be utilizing some
new process technology for Core,&#148; Murfitt said. &#147;We&#146;re now actively building tooling and acquiring
the necessary manufacturing permits and equipment.&#148; Core will lease the building in Warsaw, but
will make a capital investment of approximately $1.7&nbsp;million for equipment and technology to
support the operation.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Core&#146;s Batavia, Ohio plant manager, Bob Brennan emphasized the positive impact on employment for
the Warsaw area. &#147;We liked the quality of the labor market in Gallatin and surrounding counties,&#148;
Mr.&nbsp;Brennan noted. &#147;We worked closely with state and local representatives in our targeted
regions, and the combination of benefits offered by the people and officials of Kentucky and
Gallatin County convinced us that Warsaw was the best location for our new operation&#148;.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Core will hold a local job fair in Warsaw on Tuesday, August&nbsp;30, 2011 at the Gallatin County
Extension Office, to discuss opportunities for workers in the new plant and to take applications
for employment.
