     Consumer Products and Foodservice Divisions manufacture compression molded
     melamine dinnerware and injection molded plastic drinkware, which the
     Company sells to retail and commercial markets.  The Closures Division

     closures and lids.  These closures are used to bottle or package food,
     beverage, chemical and pharmaceutical products. The Custom Laminates
     Division is a start-up division employing the Company's proprietary
     process that permits lamination of images in a range of design, color and
     detail for use in furniture and countertops.  No significant sales have
     been generated for this latest division to date.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - THE BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont'd)

    Principles of Consolidation

    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
    and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned.  All significant
    intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
    consolidation.  Certain amounts in previously issued financial statements
    have been reclassified to conform with the current period financial
    statement presentation.

    Inventories

    Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost
    determined utilizing the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

    Property, Plant and Equipment

    Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost and depreciated using
    the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related
    assets.  Lives assigned to asset categories are 5 to 15 years for
    machinery and equipment, 30 to 35 years for buildings and 5 years for
    molds.   Machinery and equipment under capital leases are stated at the
    present value of minimum lease payments.  Renewals and improvements that
    significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of
    an asset are capitalized.  Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense
    as incurred.

    Intangible Assets

    Intangible assets are stated at cost and  consist primarily of patents and
    goodwill. Intangible assets are amortized on the straight-line method over
    their estimated useful lives.  The carrying values and amortization periods
    of intangibles are periodically evaluated by the Company to determine
    whether current events and circumstances warrant adjustment.

NOTE 1 - THE BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont'd)

     Advertising Costs

     The Company expenses the costs of advertising as incurred, except for
     direct-response advertising and catalog costs which are capitalized and
     amortized over their expected periods of future benefit (generally six
     months).  Direct response advertising and catalog costs consist primarily
     of printing and contract services for catalogs to market the Company's
     products.

     Income Taxes

     Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between
     financial and tax reporting.  Income taxes are provided for taxes
     currently payable based on taxable income.

     Environmental Costs

     A liability for environmental assessments and/or cleanup is accrued when
     it is probable a loss has been incurred and is estimable.  No significant 
     liabilities were in existence at September 30, 1995 and June 30, 1995.

     Net Income Per Common Share

     Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the
     weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period
     after giving effect to stock options and warrants considered to be
     dilutive common stock equivalents.  The weighted average number of common
     shares outstanding was 4,078,483 and 4,066,105 for the three months ended
     September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Primary and fully diluted net
     income per common share amounts are the same.

NOTE 1 - THE BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont'd)

    Revenue Recognition

    Sales are recognized when the product is shipped.

    Research and Development

    Research and development costs associated with new product development and
    testing are expensed as incurred.

    Statement of Cash Flows

    For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all
    highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less
    to be cash equivalents.

    Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

    The Company's foreign subsidiary uses the local currency as the functional
    currency.  Translation gains or losses are included as a component of
    stockholders' equity.  Gains or losses from foreign currency transactions
    are included in net income.  There were no material gains and losses from
    foreign currency translation or transactions for the periods ended
    September 30, 1995 and June 30, 1995.

Item II. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


            Three Months Ended September 30, 1995, Compared to the
                    Three Months Ended September  30, 1994


       Sales for the three months ended September 30, 1995, decreased
       $2,916,000 or 13.1%, when compared to the same period in 1994.
       Closure sales increased 7.0%, resulting from the addition of new
       products and customers.  Consumer Products and Foodservice
       Divisions' sales decreased  34.0%. as a result of the downturn in
       the retail economy and customer resistance to price pass throughs.
       Chemical Division sales decreased 8.3% due to a weak housing market
       and customer efforts to better manage their inventory to lower
       levels.

       Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales increased to 81.0% from
       75.9%.  The decline in gross margin was the direct result of raw
       material price increases in the current quarter over the comparable
       prior year quarter as well as volume declines in certain product
       lines.  Substantially all of the Company's major raw materials
       incurred unprecedented and repeated price increases over the past
       nine months ranging from 10% to 110%. The most dramatic increases
       occurred in the prices of melamine and formaldehyde.  Increased
       foreign demand for melamine due to the weakening of the dollar
       affected the domestic price of melamine and a world- wide shortage
       of methanol, a key component of formaldehyde, caused formaldehyde
       price increases.  Pulp also experienced significant increases in
       price due to paper industry shortages.  While the Company is
       currently experiencing some declines in raw material costs, other
       costs continue to increase and the overall impact to future
       earnings is not predictable.

       Because of the significant increases in raw material costs,  the
       Company raised its prices to its customers during the third and
       fourth quarters of fiscal 1995 and as a result, the volume of
       orders declined in relation to expectations.  Decreases in volume
       were also experienced in the Chemical Division due to a slow- down
       in housing starts which affected the Company's electrical
       components customers.  The most significant volume declines,
       however, were in the Consumer Products Division which was impacted
       by a very weak retail economy, in addition to the price increases.

       Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") decreased
       $175,000 but increased as a percentage of sales to 16.0% for the
       three months ended September 30, 1995 from 14.7% in 1994.  This
       increase was expected and relates to increased selling and
       marketing and research and development costs.

       Interest expense has increased 13.2% to $436,000 for the three
       months ended September 30, 1995 from $385,000 for the three months
       ended September 30, 1994 due to increased borrowings and higher
       interest rates on outstanding loan amounts.

       Net income decreased $971,000 (91.7%) to $88,000 ($0.02 per share)
       for the three months ended September 30, 1995 from $1,059,000
       ($0.26 per share) recorded in the comparable prior fiscal period
       primarily because of the impact on gross margin of raw material
       price increases and depressed sales volumes.

    Liquidity and Capital Resources
        
    Management reviews the Company's working capital, accounts receivable and
    relationship of debt to equity on a continuing basis.  The Company's growth
    has been financed through long-term debt financing and cash generated from
    operations.  During the first quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company reduced
    net borrowings by an additional $1.3 million.  Cash flow from operations
    generated $1.7 million.  The Company invested $1.0 million in accounts
    receivable during the first quarter of fiscal 1995, primarily because of
    increased sales in the later months of the first quarter.  In addition,
    current payables and accrued expenses increased approximately $1.4 million
    as the Company is managing its payables well.
        

    Capital expenditures for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 were $1.4
    million. Anticipated future capital additions should approximate $3 million
    during fiscal 1996 and management anticipates current debt capacity and
    cash flow from operations should be adequate to fund this level of
    expenditure.
        
    In September 1995, the Company and its lender agreed to amend the existing
    credit facility to provide a total of $31.3 million in borrowings secured
    by substantially all the assets of the Company.  The facility provides for
    borrowings under three separate note arrangements - (i) a $3.8 million term
    loan payable in quarterly installments through April 1, 2001, plus an
    additional $3.5 million, three year amortizing secured term loan (ii) a
    $9.0 million capital expenditure term loan payable in quarterly
    installments through April 1, 2000, and (iii) a $15.0 million revolving
    loan, due January 31, 1997. As of September 30, 1995, outstanding
    borrowings under the credit facility included $7.1 million under the term
    loan, $8.6 million under the capital expenditure term loan and $9.9 million
    under the revolving credit line.  At September 30, 1995, incremental
    borrowing availability was approximately $2.6 million under the revolving
    credit line.  The credit facility provides for the issuance of up to $2.0
    million of letters of credit, subject to the borrowing availability under
    the revolving credit line.  The loan agreement contains various covenants,
    including maintaining certain financial ratios and tests, limitation on the
    issuance of debt and the amount of capital expenditures, capital leases,
    investments and dividends.  The primary financial covenants include quarter
    end calculations of ratios of cash flow to the current portion of long-term
    debt, total debt to tangible net worth, current assets to current
    liabilities and the maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, all as
    defined. In connection with the credit facility amendment, the Company has
    retained an investment banking firm to review various strategic
    alternatives available to it, including access to capital markets and
    alternative sources of financing.
