TWO NEW PLANTS IN THE UNITED STATES

Plastic Omnium has begun work on the construction of two plants in the US: the one produces auto exterior parts in Chattanooga (Tennessee), aimed at supplying the Volkswagen plant nearby; the other is intended for the production of fuel systems in Fairfax (Kansas), near its customer General Motors.

These two new sites will increase the group's market share in North America and will boost revenue in the region, which amounted to €1.4 billion in 2013, i.e. 27% of the consolidated total.

These two plants require a total investment of US\$70 million. They will be commissioned in the second half of 2015 and eventually generate revenue of US\$140 million.

Chattanooga and Fairfax will strengthen Plastic Omnium's industrial facilities in North America, which currently comprise fifteen plants (five in the US, nine in Mexico and one in Canada).

The construction of these two production units form part of the €1.2 billion investment program announced by Plastic Omnium for the 2013-2016 period, aimed at consolidating the world leader position of its two automotive divisions, external equipment (10% of global market share) and fuel systems (22% of global market share).

Plastic Omnium is the world leader in automotive components and body modules, automotive fuel systems, and waste container solutions for local authorities and companies. The Group has 22,000 employees across 110 plants, 22 R&D centers and 30 countries worldwide. Plastic Omnium is listed on Euronext Paris, compartment A. It is eligible for the Deferred Settlement Service (SRD) and is part of the SBF 120 and CAC Mid 60 indices (ISIN code: FR0000124570).
