KYRO'S TAMGLASS FINTON RESTRUCTURES ITS OPERATIONS

Tamglass Finton Oy, part of Kyro Group's main business area Glaston Technologies'
Glass Processing Group, has begun restructuring in order to improve its
profitability and operational efficiency.

As part of the measures to be taken during the spring, Tamglass Finton Oy starts
employee negotiations. The negotiation proposal was given to the staff today.

Balcony systems and rails supplier Tamglass Finton currently employs 33 people.
The necessary headcount reduction depends on the new operation model, agreed upon
as a result of the negotiations.

Kyro Corporation will disclose the result of the employee negotiations as well as
Tamglass Finton's restructuring after the negotiations end.

Tamglass Finton's restructuring does not change Kyro Group's future outlook for
2006, disclosed on 8 February, 2006.

At the end of last year, Kyro Group employed 1,222 people, of which 184 people
