Dettingen/Erms, Runkel (Germany) April
15, 2007 +++  On Saturday April 14, 2007, one of the production halls
at the ElringKlinger production site Runkel/Germany caught fire. This
production hall housed parts of the production facilities for 
cylinder-head gaskets. The other production areas at the Runkel plant
were not affected by the fire.
Investigations as regards the cause of the fire have not yet been 
concluded. It is assumed that the fire was caused by a short circuit.
Due the damages, the hall has to be reconstructed from scratch. 
According to first estimates the amount of damages is assumed at 
approximately EUR 15 mn. There is comprehensive insurance coverage. 
There were no personal injuries.
ElringKlinger is convinced that there will be no supply and delivery 
failures as the international production network of ElringKlinger 
Group ensures that the individual products can be manufactured in the
identical high-end quality at different production sites of the 
group.
