Rautaruukki Corporation Stock exchange release 2 August 2013 at 10.00am EEST

Ruukki has signed an additional contract to deliver buildings for Poultry
Akashevskaya's new poultry meat facility in the Mari El Republic in Russia. The
contract received is worth a total of around EUR 30 million. Delivery includes a
total of around 200 separate buildings.

Ruukki's delivery includes the frames, structures, wall panels and steel roofs
for the buildings. The delivery consists of almost 200 individual buildings,
most of which will be delivered during the current year. The order received is a
continuation of earlier deliveries to Poultry Akashevskaya's production
facilities. The previous order was received in spring this year. Poultry
Akashevskaya Agroholding is one of the largest poultry companies in Russia.

Ruukki's complete building solutions are also ideal for logistics and commercial
buildings. "The further order we have received is testimony to the customer's
confidence in Ruukki. Our strengths include high quality and delivery
reliability. Our own sandwich panel plant in Russia enables us to make prompt
deliveries," says Jussi Tuisku, General Director, Ruukki Russia.

Ruukki has strengthened its position in modernisation of the Russian
agricultural sector. The buildings are based on Ruukki's cold-formed galvanised
profiles, which are market leader in Russia. The new production facilities are
being built from distinct, lightweight structural components that can be
modified for various applications. Thanks to their simple structure, the
buildings can be quickly tailored to meet specific customer needs. Highly
prefabricated elements and structures enable quick installation and thus reduce
building costs."One of Ruukki's key strategic aims is growth in Russia. Thanks to the rapid
modernisation of Russian agriculture, our solutions are now in demand. To an
increasing extent, we also provide energy-efficient building solutions which
reduce the lifecycle costs of buildings, something which customers also
appreciate", says Tommi Matomäki, Executive Vice President, Ruukki Building
Systems.
