Italy's Leading Golfer Strengthens Stellar International Schuco Team on eve of Ryder Cup

BIELEFELD, Germany, September 29, 2010 - The game's top Italian golfer will be teeing off immediately
on sustainable climate protection as Edoardo Molinari becomes the latest
Schuco brand ambassador. The world number 15 will support Schuco in
publicising the key importance of "green technology" in more energy-efficient
buildings and climate protection. Schuco International KG is the global
market leader in aluminium, solar, steel and PVC-U products for innovative
building envelopes, with offices in more than 75 countries. Italy is an
important market for Schuco. In Molinari, Schuco now has a local brand
ambassador who is also responsible for the values and philosophy of the
company. The Italian headquarters of Schuco are situated in Padua. The
company has some 200 employees throughout Italy working with 1300 partners.

"Edoardo Molinari is currently one of golf's biggest stars and
he has the all-round game to be hugely successful in the future. We are
delighted to be working with him in developing Schuco brand recognition in
Italy, promoting the theme of "green buildings" through our "Nature and
Technology" sponsorship. Edoardo Molinari is a brand ambassador for Italy,
but also an ideal choice globally," says Dirk U. Hindrichs, President and CEO
of Schuco International KG. Edoardo Molinari adds, "It's a great honour for
me to be part of such a high-quality team of brand ambassadors and to
represent a brand that makes such an enormous contribution to climate
protection with efficient solutions for buildings."

It was in 2009 that Edoardo Molinari announced his arrival,
rocketing up from 753 to 48 in the world rankings. And he continued his
phenomenal rise this summer. In July, he won the Barclays Scottish Open, his
first victory on the European PGA Tour. His second triumph followed just
weeks later, in the Johnnie Walker Championship at the end of August. This
second win saw him claim a place on the Europe team alongside his brother
Francesco for this week's Ryder Cup. For a pair of brothers to play in the
most prestigious team competition in golf is a rare feat indeed. As Europe's
finest face up to a strong US side in Wales from 1 October, Schuco will be
very well represented. Edoardo Molinari will join Martin Kaymer and Miguel
Angel Jimenez
in the team led by captain Colin Montgomerie.

The addition of the 29-year-old from Turin sees the team of
international Schuco brand ambassadors increase to eight world class golfers.
Bernhard Langer, Martin Kaymer, Colin Montgomerie, Miguel Angel Jimenez,
Gregory Havret, Geoff Ogilvy and Henrik Stenson all represent the Schuco
corporate model of "Energy2 - Saving energy and generating energy".
