(TSX:ITP)("Intertape®", "IPG®" or the "Company"), a leading North American manufacturer of tape products, is supporting the Susan G. Komen For the Cure Foundation® in the fight against breast cancer. IPG® will show their support by introducing ProMask Pink™, a premium pink painter's tape with IPG®'s clean releasing adhesive that delivers superior paint lines for the professional and do-it- yourself consumer of masking tape.
