Glaston sells real estate


Glaston Corporation      Stock Exchange Release   28 November
2007     at 2:30 p.m.



Glaston sells real estate

Glaston Corporation has completed the sale of 90 items of real estate
to Soft-Invest Oy. With the total value of the sold real estate
amounting to EUR 2,900,000, Glaston will record non-recurring gains
of EUR 2,750,000 (before taxes) for the sale.

The divested real estate includes land, gravel areas and forest
ranges in Hämeenkyrö, Ikaalinen, Parkano, Jämijärvi and Ylöjärvi.

In June 2007, Glaston's Board of Directors decided to divest non-core
fixed assets as part of the firm's restructuring and the related
financing."While this divestment involved Glaston's major land areas, the Group
still owns individual items of real estate unrelated to its core
operations, and we estimate that they will be sold during 2008 at the
latest," states Kimmo Lautanen, Glaston's CFO.
