INFORMATION REGARDING CONSENT OF ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP

We  have  not  been  able to obtain, after reasonable  efforts,  the  written
consent  from our former independent public accountant, Arthur Andersen  LLP,
to  our  incorporation  by  reference on Form  10-K  pertaining  to  Spartech
Corporation,  of  their report dated December 6, 2001  with  respect  to  the
financial  statements  and the supplemental schedule of Spartech  Corporation
included  in  this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November  3,
2001,  as  required by section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933,  as  amended.
Accordingly,  you  will be unable to recover amounts  sought  in  any  action
against  Arthur  Andersen  LLP,  the former  independent  public  accountant,
pursuant  to  the  Securities  of 1933 and the  regulations  thereunder,  and
therefore  any right of recovery may be limited as a result of  the  lack  of
that consent.
