Alfa Laval's strong development in Ukraine continues - wins order for the
growing brewery industry

Alfa Laval - a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid
handling - has received an order for process solutions to two breweries in
Ukraine. The total order value is approximately SEK 50 million. Delivery will
take place late 2007 and during 2008.

Ukraine has a very long tradition of brewing beer. It goes back more than 200
years. As the consumption of beer now is increasing the Ukrainian brewery
industry is growing and both of the two orders are to increase capacity. 
”It is very satisfying that the brewery industry in Eastern Europe now is
investing again”, says Lars Renström, President and CEO of Alfa Laval. ”Both
these orders in Ukraine are a clear proof of that Alfa Laval's solutions to the
world's breweries are of highest quality and in demand.”
The orders have a large scope and consist of many different products and system
solutions from Alfa Laval.

Did you know that Ukraine was the fastest growing market for Alfa Laval during
2006, in terms of percentage? Annual sales in the country is currently
approximately SEK 200 million and the largest applications for Alfa Laval can be
found within food, steel industry and inorganic chemistry.
