             INTERTAPE POLYMER GROUP INC. REACQUIRES COMMON SHARES
     											NYSE SYMBOL: ITP
												TSX SYMBOL: ITP

Montreal, Quebec and Bradenton, Florida--November 15, 2005 - Intertape
Polymer Group Inc. (NYSE, TSX: ITP) today announced that it has 
reacquired and will cancel 250,587 of its common shares which had been
held in escrow in connection with the acquisition of Olympian Tape 
Sales Inc. d/b/a United Tape Company  in 2000.   The shares had been 
held in escrow pending the resolution of certain third party legal 
claims arising from the acquisition.   As a result of the resolution 
of such claims and the related expense incurred in connection 
therewith, Intertape became entitled to reacquire the escrowed shares.

Andrew Archibald, C.A., Chief Financial Officer, stated that "When,
as a result of the amicable resolution of certain post closing matters
these shares became available, IPG elected to cancel them rather than 
have them  sold into the market.  These shares were acquired outside 
of the scope of our normal course issuer bid pursuant to the terms of 
the agreements entered into at the time of the acquisition."
