Release from Trelleborg AB’s AGM

Approximately 700 shareholders attended Trelleborg’s Annual General Meeting in
Trelleborg on April 19. The theme of CEO Peter Nilsson’s address was “A
continuously evolving Trelleborg”.

“2011 was the best year so far for
Trelleborg. We achieved our financial goals and strengthened our finances. We
continued our determined efforts to achieve sustainable profitable growth by
gradually strengthening and developing the Group.

“Our ambitious activities
to develop the Group have yielded results. We have an improved global presence
with a growing share of sales in such emerging markets as China, India and
Brazil. We have established and expanded our presence for production and
development as well as sales and services in prioritized markets to come closer
to our customers. In parallel with these efforts, we strengthened Trelleborg’s
brand and our brand portfolio, thus providing a competitive advantage in
challenging global business environments. We expanded our presence in attractive
segments primarily through organics means. However, to increase the pace of
growth, we also completed a number of complementary acquisitions.

“Our
priority is to continuously improve our performance in various processes, such
as production, purchasing and capital management. We continue to focus on growth
in selected segments and markets. At the same time, we are further intensifying
our efforts in our interaction with customers using, for example, the support of
digital technologies, with the aim of improving and simplifying their everyday
operations and strengthening their businesses.”
