   PRESS RELEASE


                   TRIPLE S ANNOUNCES RECENT DEVELOPMENTS;
                POSTPONEMENT OF SPECIAL SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING


        PORTAGE, Mich.-- March 1, 2001-- Triple S Plastics, Inc.
   (Nasdaq:TSSS) announced today that, based on information provided to
   it recently by its principal customer, Triple S expects significantly
   weaker sales to its principal customer than Triple S had anticipated
   for its fiscal years ending March 31, 2002 and 2003.  Triple S has
   been working on developing new programs with its other customers to
   replace the expected loss of these sales.  Triple S expects, however,
   that the overall effect of its weaker sales will significantly
   adversely affect the growth of its revenues in fiscal years 2002 and
   2003.  As a result of its expected decrease in production, Triple S
   will be reviewing its manufacturing capacity needs at its two Texas
   locations.

        In light of these developments, and the need for Triple S to
   revise the proxy statement/prospectus that it has sent to its
   shareholders with respect to its proposed merger with Eimo Oyj to
   describe these developments, Triple S will adjourn its March 8th
   special shareholders' meeting without conducting any business at the
   meeting.  Triple S will set a new record date and will convene a
   special meeting at a later date after it has delivered a revised proxy
   statement/prospectus to its shareholders and resolicited the vote of
   its shareholders with respect to the proposed merger.  Triple S will
   inform its shareholders of the new date, time and place at which the
   rescheduled special meeting will be held in a notice which will be
   included in the revised proxy statement/prospectus.

        This press release includes statements that constitute forward-
   looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the
   Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This information
   involves risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
   differ materially from the forward-looking statements. For certain
   information regarding these risks and uncertainties, please refer to
   the proxy/statement prospectus relating to the proposed Triple S-Eimo
   merger.

        This information was furnished on behalf of Triple S's board of
   directors.
