January 31, 2010

From January 1, 2010 Lehmann & Voss & Co. has increased its shareholding in Schneider Umwelttechnik AG in Winterthur, Switzerland to 50,4 %.

This increase in shareholding will result in a further improvement of the market penetration of the LEHVOSS Group in Switzerland and opens up new possibilites for the marketing of further raw materials (pharmaceutical raw materials, minerals, etc.).

Schneider Umwelttechnik AG generated sales revenues of CHF 7 million with a headcount of 8 in 2004. The current managing director and shareholder, Mr. Peter Simon, will continue to run the company.
