THE ALUMASC GROUP PLC – ANNOUNCEMENT
26 March 2012

The Alumasc Group plc (ALU.L), the premium Building and Engineering Products group is pleased to announce that it has won a c.£10 million contract to supply an Alumasc Armaseam standing seam roof as part of the modernisation of a large aluminium smelter in Canada.

This work builds on our expertise in this market niche which began when the group supplied a £4 million roof to the Fjardaal smelter in Iceland in 2006, and further projects thereafter.

The majority of the revenue and profit arising from this contract is expected to accrue in Alumasc’s financial years ending 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2014.

Paul Hooper, Group Chief Executive, commented:

“It is very pleasing to report a further aluminium smelter related project win which was the result of Alumasc Armaseam’s technical solution and which followed a rigorous evaluation over several months.”
