Schüco Congratulates its New Brand Ambassador on Match Play Victory

BIELEFELD, Germany, May 25, 2011 -

- Ian Poulter Teeing Off on Climate Protection

With his striking and remarkable appearance, the 35-year-old Englishman
is one of the world's most professional golfers. He is extremely successful.
In the final of the Volvo Match Play Championship in Spain last weekend,
"Poults," as he is called, finished in first place. As of immediately, the
pro golfer and Schüco, the leading provider of Green Technology and Clean
Energy from Solar and Windows around the building envelope, are joining
forces. Both golf and Schüco feature a perfect harmony between nature and
technology. And high aspirations in terms of precision, perfection,
professionalism, and sustainability. To focus even more attention on these
qualities, a team of world-class golfers tees off around the globe on climate
protection, led by world's number three golfer, Martin Kaymer.

Sustainable contribution to climate protection

Ian Poulter had this to say about the new partnership: "Schüco is a
company that follows up its words with deeds. Its innovative technologies are
unique and I am fully convinced that they are making a sustainable
contribution to global climate protection. I'm very happy to be part of the
team." Poulter, who has won eleven European Tour tournaments to date,
celebrated his greatest triumphs in 2010, when he won the WGC World Match
Play Championship and was a member of Europe's victorious Ryder Cup team.

Dirk U. Hindrichs, the President and CEO of Schüco International KG, is
happy about the partnership with the British top golfer: "Ian Poulter is a
very charismatic personality in international golf - a successful golfer who
surprises people with his unusual ideas away from the greens. He is an ideal
brand ambassador for us and will contribute to raising awareness of the
Schüco brand and our climate protection goals. We're very pleased about the
cooperation."

Schüco - Green Technology for the Blue Planet.

That means clean energy from solar products and windows. And the
contribution that Schüco makes to the environment with pioneering building
envelopes. To be more precise, with Energy3: Saving Energy - Generating
Energy - Networking Energy. Window and façade systems not only save energy
due to optimum thermal insulation, they also generate energy thanks to
efficient solar solutions. This creates an excess of energy which can be used
by means of intelligent networking. For building functions, as well as for
everyday life. The result is a significant step towards energy
self-sufficiency. Towards the sustainable conservation of natural resources.
And for a secure future. With 5250 employees and 12,000 partner companies,
Schüco is active in 78 countries worldwide and achieved turnover of 2.38
billion euros in 2010.
