Company Information

Vienna, Austria/Rovigo, Italy – In the course of the strategic focus on the
large-scale production of high-quality and sophisticated hydraulic and
industrial hoses, Semperit AG Holding sells the Italian Semperflex production
site Roiter in Rovigo/Northern Italy to the Italian Matec Group.

„By selling the factory, we are taking another step towards a Group-wide
complexity reduction within the scope of our restructuring and transformation
process,“ says Martin Füllenbach, Chairman of the Management Board of Semperit
AG Holding. „Following the expansion of the Czech location Odry, which therefore
became a process-optimised producer of large volumes in the quality and high-
performance sector, the high-quality hose manufacturer Roiter no longer fits in
with the Semperflex production footprint. We have found an ideal buyer in the
Matec Group, which adds special rubber hoses to its portfolio and will be
connected to us by a close business relationship.“

In the future, Semperflex will focus on the European mega factory in Odry/Czech
Republic and the two large Asian plants in addition to its headquarters in
Wimpassing/Lower Austria. The contract was recently signed. We have agreed not
to disclose any information on the purchase price.
