Uponor divests its machinery company, Extron Engineering Oy

Uponor Infra Oy, a subsidiary of Uponor Corporation, has today sold its fully
owned Finnish subsidiary, Extron Engineering Oy to Mecanor Oy, also based in
Finland. 

Both Extron Engineering Oy and Mecanor Oy are in the business of designing and
manufacturing machinery for the plastic products industry. 

The parties also signed a co-operation agreement for the further development of
certain key technologies. 

The divestment does not impact Uponor Group's guidance for the year 2015 and it
does not generate sales gains or losses of note. The net sales of the divested
business in 2014 amounted to €5.6 million and it employs 19 persons in its
Toijala premises. 

Uponor Infra Oy made a decision to divest Extron in accordance with its
strategy to focus on core businesses and markets where it can command a strong
market position and achieve operational synergies. Uponor Infra will also in
the future continue to license and sell certain technologies relevant to the
infrastructure business.
