Glaston to specify its outlook for the beginning of the year

GLASTON CORPORATION          Stock Exchange Release 	17.3.2009 at 14.00 p.m.    
                                                                                

Glaston to specify its outlook for the beginning of the year 
Due to an order intake for the first months of the year falling below           
expectations and a weak order book, Glaston specifies its outlook for the       
beginning of 2009, and states that operating result for the first quarter of    
2009 will be negative.   
In an earlier release of 10 February, 2009, Glaston Corporation expected 2009   
net sales to fall short of the 2008 level and based on the weak visibility an   
outlook for operating result was not given at that time.                        


Glaston's interim report for January-March 2009 is published on May 5, 2009.
