Six month report January - June 2007

Continued favorable growth in second quarter

”The implementation of efficiency measures and continued focus on profitable
segments shall create margin improvements and increased growth”, says CEO Peter
Nilsson.

The order and delivery scenario remained good in the second quarter and growth
was favorable, with organic growth totaling 8 percent.

Three out of four business areas increased both operating profit and operating
margin as a result of such factors as favorable volumes and continued successful
focus on more profitable segments

Trelleborg Automotive's strategic and operational review continues. A decision
was made to close a plant in Italy

In May, the US Justice Department and the EU competition authority started
investigations into a suspected cartell for certain types of marine hoses for
the transport of oil. The investigation comprises several international
companies, including one of Trelleborg's French subsidiaries.

Outlook for the third quarter of 2007
The outlook for the third quarter of 2007 remains unchanged from the outlook for
the first two quarters of the year.

For general industry, demand is not expected to decline and it is anticipated
that the very strong demand in the Aerospace and Oil/Gas segments will continue.
Cutbacks in production, mainly among North American customers, are expected to
have adverse effects on automotive-related operations.

comparability have been excluded: restructuring expenses, impairment losses,
nonrecurring revenue and nonrecurring costs.
