Kurawood is pleased to announce it has secured a series of purchase orders for
its products from flooring specialist retailer Floors-2-Go Ltd,
("Floors-2-Go"), under which Kurawood will supply Floors-2-Go with its first
modified timber solid flooring for retail sale in the UK. Floors-2-Go will
stock and display three colours of flooring in all of their 135 stores in the
UK.

Initial purchase orders received total �103,000 and consumers will be able to
purchase modified timber solid flooring with all the characteristics of real
hardwood flooring such as Walnut, Oak and Cherry by the end of this Summer. The
solid wood flooring will be sold under the KURA brand. Further purchase orders
are expected in due course.

Roy Tilleard, CEO of Kurawood, said:

"This is a major break through for any modified timber manufacturer to have.
Floors-2-Go have shown the way forward for not only the timber industry but in
its environmental policy by stocking flooring that displays the
characteristics of a quality hardwood product manufactured from plantation
grown sustainable softwood. It also now allows the consumer direct access to
this new technology."

Floors-2-Go CEO, Roger McLaughlan, says:

"We are delighted to welcome Kurawood as one of our new suppliers. KURA solid
wood flooring has all the qualities that we expect of quality hardwood but
without any detrimental effects to the environment. Kura gives Floors-2-Go a
distinct competitive advantage over other flooring retailers. We are expecting
to generate incremental sales through this unique and exciting product."
