Trelleborg acquires outstanding share of liquid silicone rubber operation in Bulgaria

Trelleborg has, through its business area Trelleborg Sealing Solutions, utilized
an option from 2011 to acquire the outstanding 50 percent of the shares in
Trelleborg Sealing Solutions Silcotech Bulgaria OOD, with a production unit in
Pernik, Bulgaria. Its main focus is the production of precision molded seals in
liquid silicone rubber (LSR) for various industries including baby care and food
processing. The transaction is part of Trelleborg’s strategy to strengthen its
positions in attractive market segments.

Since the acquisition of Silcotech Group in 2011 Trelleborg has made several
investments in its life sciences operations, among others in an expanded
production capacity in Switzerland and an establishment of a new full-scale
production unit in the U.S.

The business was already fully consolidated. A press release regarding the
acquisition in its entirety was published on March 28, 2011.
