Exhibit 99.2

November 14, 2006

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PLIANT REPORTS SOLID 3rd QUARTER RESULTS

Schaumburg, IL - Pliant Corporation today reported third quarter sales of $293 million. This represents a 12% increase over the third quarter of 2005, and a 1.5% sequential  increase versus the second quarter of 2006.  Each division of the company reported increased sales as did all geographies including the US, Canada, Mexico, Germany and Australia.  The sales increase was driven primarily by improvements in selling prices and favorable product sales mix, as volume measured in pounds was essentially flat versus third quarter of 2005 and up 1.1% sequentially versus the second quarter of 2006.

EBITDA(R) Improves Versus 2005

Preliminary EBITDA(R) results are $26.0 million. This represents a 20% increase over the third quarter of 2005, and a 3% sequential decline versus the 2nd quarter of 2006. The company remains focused on growing EBITDA(R) via accretive sales growth, lean business practices, cost reduction and innovation. EBITDA(R) is defined as EBITDA with the company’s financial restructuring and reorganization costs added back. These costs are mostly legal fees and financial advisor fees.

Growth and Innovation Continue

Momentum in Sales, Marketing, and Innovation continued in the third quarter, with several important new product launches, including:

·BreatheFreshTM family of produce films (patent pending), which enhance shelf-life and improve performance versus conventional films

·SteamQuickTM (patent pending) microwaveable packaging for frozen vegetables

·BlockadeTM (patent pending) family of high-barrier agricultural films

·Stratum NSTM family of nylon skin films for fresh food packaging

All of these products support market evolution, and are a result of Pliant’s aggressive innovation and technology programs.  In the third quarter, Pliant also extended several of our existing Marquee account supply relationships and was awarded new business in the Personal Care, Food and Beverage, and Retail market segments.

Operational Performance Continues to Improve

The company’s continuous improvement programs in its plants advanced again in the 3rd quarter of 2006.

·Gross waste was 9.6% vs. 10.4% in the third quarter of 2005.  This calculation is the inverse of first-pass yield, and reductions in this number free-up capacity and

lower material conversion costs.

·Net waste was 4.3% vs. 5.1% in the third quarter of 2005.  This is the amount of resin that can not be reprocessed in the company’s film-making operations.  Reductions in this number translate into higher EBITDA(R) and lower the company’s resin purchase requirements.  The company has a long-term goal to have net waste rates approach zero.

Chippewa Falls Innovation Center Expansion Completed

Pliant recently held the grand opening of our newly-expanded Center for Innovation in Chippewa Falls, WI.  This 10,000 ft2 addition will house over $4 million of new, pilot-scale extrusion and packaging technology assets.  The investment is designed to keep Pliant on the forefront of packaging technology, with state-of-the art equipment to ensure we continue to provide leading-edge packaging solutions to our customers.

Balanced Capital Investment Program Continues

In the third quarter the company continued its investment in growth, innovation, and cost reduction, completing installation and start-up of several capital expansions, including:

·An 8-color flexographic press and two bag-converting machines to accommodate volume growth in the Personal Care and Bakery markets

·A three-layer blown extrusion line to create high quality, converter-grade coextruded films to support growth in Frozen Food and Personal Care markets

·A new, state-of-the-art, high-speed winder in our Germany extrusion operations to increase production capacity and improve operational efficiency

·In-house rewinding in our Australian operations to support growth in the Retail and Foodservice cutter-box markets

The company spent $10.4 million on capital programs in the third quarter and approved an additional $11.0 million of new investment.

Resin & Materials Trending Favorably

Although resin base prices have been volatile, they are currently tracking below the June 2006 level and the near-term outlook is for further declines.  These declines have the effect of freeing up additional liquidity in the company’s working capital accounts.  During the quarter, the company again posted record purchases of resin from the Middle East, the Far East, Europe and the secondary market and continued to aggressively diversify its supplier base.  In addition, we have continued our excellent progress in waste reduction, which frees up capacity and lowers our net material costs.

Financial Reorganization Completed

On July 18, 2006, Pliant consummated its financial reorganization through a series of transactions contemplated in our court-approved Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization, including:

1)Changed its state of incorporation from Utah to Delaware

2)Completed a debt-for-equity exchange, in which all the company’s 13% Senior Subordinated Notes and then-outstanding Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock were exchanged for new Series AA Preferred Stock, new Common Stock, a new $35 million Subordinated Note, and a $3.2 million consent fee

3)Entered into new revolving credit facilities with expanded borrowing availability

The new credit facilities provide up to $200 million of borrowing availability, subject to borrowing base capacity.  As of September 30, 2006, the company had $55.2 million of unused availability under these facilities, as well as $5.4 million cash.

2006 Full-Year Outlook

Our full-year guidance is for $104 million to $107 million of EBITDA(R), depending on sales volumes realized in our resin price-sensitive markets.
