                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' CONSENT

The Board of Directors
Geographics, Inc.:

We consent to incorporation by reference in the registration statement (No.
33-49888) on Form S-8 of Geographics, Inc. of our report dated June 28, 2001,
relating to the consolidated balance sheet of Geographics, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of March 31, 2001, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders' equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash
flows for the year ended March 31, 2001, and all related schedules, which
report appears in the March 31, 2001, annual report on Form 10-K of
Geographics, Inc.

Our report dated June 28, 2001, contains an explanatory paragraph that states
that the Company has suffered a net loss, has a working capital deficiency, and
an accumulated deficit, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern.  The consolidated financial statements and
financial statement schedule do not include any adjustments that might result
from the outcome of that uncertainty.
