SC] </font></b><font color="black" style="color:windowtext;">&#151;</font><font color="black" style="color:windowtext;"> Polymer Group, Inc. (OTC
Bulletin Board: POLGA/POLGB) announced it will increase prices on its products
globally due to significantly higher raw material costs.</font></p>

<p style="color:black;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="color:black;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">Price increases from suppliers to PGI continue to rise
this year as oil prices reach record highs. The company experienced increases
of more than 50 percent last year on certain petroleum-based raw materials that
are key components of its nonwoven products.</font></p>

<p style="color:black;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="color:black;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">In addition, PGI has been impacted by higher costs of
polypropylene, the company&#146;s largest raw material component. Polypropylene
supply is expected to remain tight through 2005. Other costs, such as
transportation and energy, also continue to go up.</font></p>

<p style="color:black;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="color:black;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">&#147;PGI continues to focus on streamlining manufacturing
and reducing our costs to ensure we deliver the best value, highest quality and
most innovative products to our customers. These efforts allow us to combat raw
material price changes to a degree. However, current market conditions require
us to offset some of the impacts with price increases to our customers. This
phenomenon is not unique to PGI but is impacting our entire industry,&#148; said PGI&#146;s
chief executive officer, James L. Schaeffer.</font></p>
